0:00.0	Hi, I'm Clemy Telford and it's time to get open and get honest.
0:09.0	Each week, I interview a guest about a topic that we as a society often shy away from.
0:14.8	From sex lives to salaries, life and death, religion and real bodies, no subject is off the table. Welcome to Honestly, the podcast.
0:28.6	M&S hardly need any introduction, but I am thrilled to have them on board as the sponsors of series 2.
0:33.6	I don't know about you, but whenever I buy something from MNS, I feel like a proper grown-up.
0:38.7	From a classic trench coat to a great cut suit, I always feel assured I'm investing in something
0:43.3	that will stand the test of time and will remain a staple of my wardrobe for years to come.
0:51.2	So this is new and terrifying and exciting and it's the first ever live honestly podcast here at the MNS Press Day.

1:37.9	So on a scale of 1 to 10, how cool are you?
1:41.9	Oh, I think I'm very, my godson thinks I'm very cool.
1:43.4	I'd say 9.
2:03.1	You can't say 9 and be sheepish. You have to say nine. I'm a nine. On a scale of one to ten, how nice are you? Oh, seven, eight? And if you're not convinced by that, that's, yeah, okay. On a scale of one to ten, how strong are you? I would say at nine, ten.
2:10.3	Confident about that one. Night owl or early bird? Definitely early bird. Dog or cat person?
2:16.0	Dog. Whoa, I didn't even finish that. I feel the same. Intravert or extrovert?
