0:00.0	Hello and welcome to Story Time for Grownups.
0:04.1	I'm Faith Moore, and this season we're reading Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen.
0:10.1	Each episode, I'll read a few chapters from the book,
0:13.2	pausing from time to time to give brief explanations, so it's easier to follow along.
0:18.5	It's like an audiobook with built-in notes. So brew a pot of tea,
0:23.8	find a cozy chair, and settle in. It's raining where I am, and that feels like the perfect weather for a cozy
0:52.1	chair and a pot of tea and a story. So I'm so glad to be here. You know, somebody asked me
0:57.7	recently what I have against coffee. Why am I always talking about tea and why do I want it to
1:02.8	buy me a tea and not buy me a coffee? And I have nothing against coffee. In fact, I drink a coffee
1:07.7	every now and again. But tea is kind of like an aesthetic. It's like a way of
1:12.3	life. And when it rains, it just kind of adds to that. For me, I think it's because I grew up in
1:17.6	England, and in England, it's always raining. And you drink your cup of tea and you eat your
1:23.7	little scone or your digestive biscuit or something and you sit by the window with your
1:27.7	book and that's what you do. It's kind of like Jane Eyre, right, at the very beginning of Janeair,
1:31.7	all snuggled up on the window seat, hiding, and the rain is raining outside, but she's snug and warm.
1:36.9	That's what it's like. Tea is like that. Tea is snug and warm on a rainy day. So I hope you're snug and warm. I hope you're snuggled up in your cozy
1:44.3	chair with your pot of tea, at least in your mind. I hope that's mentally where you are right now.
1:49.0	And if it isn't, I hope I can help you get there today with this episode of Storytime for
1:53.5	grown-up. So welcome. I'm so glad you're here. We're reading Pride and Prejudice. This is episode seven of season two, and today we're going to be reading chapters 19 through
2:02.2	21 of the book. And I got a great question for this time. It's going to help us dive a little bit more
2:08.7	into some of the thematic stuff. You know, we've been so immersed in the technical details of this book,
2:16.0	the kind of historical context.
