Hello, it's Susie here. We're back. Series 6 of Out with Susie Ruffle. I'm very

excited to be back and to be sharing some more stories with you between now and

Christmas. I have so many fantastic episodes lined up and so many people I'm still

reaching out to trying to get them to say yes but I'm very excited about some of the

people we've got coming on the show it's going to be really great I was just

looking back at how many episodes that I've

recorded since all that time way back when in the first lockdown. 73 episodes, different

conversations with different people from across the LGBT-QA-plus community.

And yeah, it sort of made me realize that I'm super proud of it, which I think is something that is, that British people don't say an awful lot because we

cringe at things like that don't we but it's very American to say I'm super proud of this

but I think maybe that's a good thing to sort of recognize when you create something that you think is pretty good.

And I do think it's pretty good.

Do you know what?

I think it's better than pretty good.

I think it's bloody good.

And I was delighted that I got to meet some of you this week. I did the first ever live show about

was Susie Ruffel at Sohe Theatre London. I was delighted how quickly it sold out. I

think it sold out in about three or four days, which just made my heart sing and chatting to so many of you afterwards some of

you said the most beautiful things to me about what this podcast has done for you

whether it's just helped you accept yourself a little bit more,

whether it's giving you the confidence to go out and meet someone

and fall in love or whether you're a parent
