Think of all the other stuff that the toddlers herring Belinda quotes, political that's what I love a toddler, quoting relevance today.

Whilst he listened to the show we've ve got a message. saying up who says you ve been keeping me particularly cherry during a year and a half of frustrating and depressing fertility treatment. James.

Let's do it hi on our team, my name and all that goodness and I'm eighteen and I'm from cat in england and my god, what I tell you this show has seen me through it. I fucking the when I was like fourteen yeah. So if you're a long time coming, it got me through literally all my animal homage to the nugget unity. I listen to it at least three times a day and also maybe like the famous more comfortable by such lousy cause belinda fucking by law, but he loves your milky. I don't think you understand quite how much of a difference it makes the wealth. I just have a lot.

See and they often don't get shocked by that's. How I want the side of every call from now on at the ss and don't give her that sorry she started listing when she was fourteen. I know that one name hey, I guess it's kind of sex education according to anatomic and not wage of whom I didn't know we had listeners in poland, I don't lie. We do because I'm has been in touch hi and I live in poland and I'm just really excited cause. They believe in businesses. I just wanted to say thank you. They've started to listen to this podcast when I was going through a really tough time. I had a bad breakup,

just a big fucking mess and I remember laughing my ass off in I here in a shop in a trance. I was completely in love with your broadcast and I'm still grateful for you for your work and for rocky as well. So I gave him my Commissioner, thank you for being present in my tougher stones. Thank you again. I, love. What a little q sweetie pie signed all giving rocky best wishes for what he's a thrust upon the well. He does not deserve better is he deserves a cease and desist. You want another one fancy another one fancy offensive:

another one hi guys my name's ben, and I just wanted to say thank you so much for the podcast. My memory of my dad by porno is walking around the park in in the town in which I led trying to get my eight month old daughter to go to sleep in a prime in the pouring rain soaked to the skin in utterly miserable conditions, but listening to the podcast and just laughing and having a brilliant time, you got me through the eight months. The progression grateful thanks very much guys, ah, that's very sweet, or so, while he walks his eight month old round in the rain listening to us and the eight month old likes that but ever gets through the days is well. I say slowly I mean we said it, for they do not operate heavy machinery or manage a child. When listening to my daughter opponent, not recommended what is incredible from growth, these emails is the breadth of ages,

I kind of assumed that people our age younger people, but we got an email from LISA who said indeed rocky, doesn't know much about sex, but don't blame that on his age as a woman in her sexual prime aka sixty years old, I can promise you that most of us old farts have a lot more experience than you and know exactly what to do with her various saggy, baggy and otherwise decrepit parts, and we have way more free time than you do too. So we have to have more sex than you've ever dreamed of, except maybe James well fair play lisa. You know, I hope I'm having as much sex as you when I'm sixty. It is interesting, though, isn't it thinking about the listeners because often we're just not thinking about how many people listening where they are all over the world, as you say who they are what age they are. I really really loved this message from Becky who says as an sl interpret.

Yeah I tried to challenge myself by practicing interpreting interviews, ted talks, music, etc. By far the most challenging thing, I've ever attempted to interpret has been every single chapter of Belinda blinked. It's been humbling and entertaining trying to think of fun and interesting, ways to sign breast plunging, like pomegranate, showing the miniscule vall or how to show someone's reaction to blue seamen that Kate, your hair? I thank you both positive and is really help. People could discover things about themselves like Ricky got in touch and said I was always convince growing up. I was a sexual enlist into Belinda blinked over the last few years has actually confirm that for me and harrison at that. Helped him come out as gay. So you know it's really helping people across the spectrum wow in what way what he said that the parker showed him, that it wasn't a big deal to be into the same sex and knowing friends of his list

and enjoy the show allowed him to realise that they could befall within coming out, and they were these definite while fast rate, congratulations, harrison the bunker side effects of your doubts. rolling in the pavilion honestly fantastic, but you know we have given that a bit of a rough time over the years. not just for his poland, but also phase business knowledge ray, got in touch and said: look rockies approach of business is as balanced as his butte everything else, but some things a very accurate. She works in business guys. She knows the stuff she started. We can have to cut you off area too much of your message, cheese that one episode featured a discussion about payment terms influencing superbowl this position of steel products. We all see baffled by action. she thought was a very reasonable position to london if those with a key issues for the parties involved, so actually maybe dad, did know his stuff after all

you know hands. I think I was sent on both admit this definitely been times when we ribbed into following. Perhaps you know we ve been in the wrong will say it. We Maybe we've been in the wrong speak for yourself know. We have definitely had moments where I think, oh, my god, rocky flintstones lawyers are going to come for us cause. He actually does speaking of the business advice in the books, we've actually had a voicemail from someone whose life has been altered, improved by the the business advice in the books. I just wanted to say: I've been listening since my very first job in twenty sixteen. When I was a teenager at a retail bank- and now I am a graduate with a university degree going about my life and matters because Belinda installed such a, elegant policy. Ah, ok yeah! Let's do it. Let's do it in the sexiest way possible thanks for those that he goes fuck yeah. Let's do it there you go. That is a that is a business mantra. I need to know.

A graduate scheming zone and keeping the business theme human way, nay. got in touch from malaysia who said they land at a conference? Much like the pan, pacific, the pots of half come for conference. But they bonded over. Listening to my dad wrote a porno at the conference lot that brought them together and what are they together, they're still together? Oh, I love that I know it's not bad, so sweet. I love how a pin bawling here, but you mentioned malaysia. I've got another malaysia. Can I go? Louise has been and she says I moved to malaysia for a few months for work and it was a hugely stressful time. My friend sent me a link to my favourite porno saying you will love this and I absolutely did, but the most. My dad wrote a porno part of Louise's story is that when she was at uni, her dad did actually write a porno, but not in the way that rocky did. He accidentally. I don't even know how to say this sexed it. Louise.

But like the waltz, surrey, keep reading I'll get reading she's on her way to me, adopt for lunch and apologies in advance for the language, but she gets tax from her thinking that is going to say, like running of it lay or I'm here or doing the coffee or ever, and it says it was raising two common. Your juicy can't ton kiss my god is not the first Use of the sea bomb on my dad I'll make up again have to be met Do you see she says juicy is the worst of it ass. She didn't know how to with it, and so, unlike Jamie, she just ignored and went for lunch and they never spoke of it ever again. They never spoke of it, but his mother option. I can't believe, and amongst all the horrendous things that rockies written I'm the first one

prophecy bomb potty mouth your dirty little party about always such is about you all. I can say, as it was the bait him I'm so sorry. If your offended grace has been in touch high grace james, Amy, Alice and rocky. My name is grace. I live in paris and today, on my way to work. I walk past the language and everyday I think it's not as good as a new nominal and the podcast has changed my life infinitely because during the pandemic I was stuck here and I couldn't get home to see my family and me, and my best friend decided to make the podcast of our day in order to just get through the crippling anxiety that brought to us through the pathetic. So every day we had a listening party just have to, we couldn't see each other, we couldn't get home to each other and the port.

It's brought us closer together and it just brought in all day. I think he should watch it and he woke us. Oh that's amazing. I love the idea that they're all real world locations, which have also been desecrated by rocket, Writing you. You could pass major landmarks without thinking of him. I think people when people come to london now they do walking tools of Belinda blink communications like I've seen it, levy, males are people saying they ve been to cripple, would pumping state I needed. I yandah way. Even we have a government which is a massive like detour out of your way to go and send out a clear and probably incredibly unimpressive when you get to you like yeah, incredible. Well, that's funny, because you know people of color try to make belinda into like a cultural thing. You know by doing that, sort of thing and nicole from ITALY got in touch she's living in paris, but she came to see as in stockholm,

and she told all of her family that she was going to see the museum to tell them that she was going to say so because both ways, the culture of it I'm just quit. Laid staying in europe, we ve got an email from asked d. I only want to be the subject light. He said, can hagen is in adding unease. Put one of those out with a laugh. Through it in learning. I think he's trying to help you with your pronunciation james, a lot of people pronouncing it like the eisley. He spells the m o you oh line e r, I agree, as I believe it spells out. The traditional old english spilling joins us out of the voice. Mail of Jamie twould be my pleasure. This is kelly from, although in California I gotta give us a shot. Just do you know how far the influence of rockies whacking wonderful world of Belinda blinked has reached its craving to think that I said

listening in my second year of university and now I'm in my first year of getting my doktor it, and I just wanted to say that, especially during covered, this really felt like the most bizarre family on earth- and I really really am thankful for it. So I'd really like to raise a glass of sharp, nay to you Belinda. The glee team and rocky and basically all the good stuff. Oh my god, it's so much nicer than Kelly's voice. Why did we just employees? Can I just say I'd like to raise a glass to global lockdown, spur we're giving us a nice little tip of everyone's, like you got me through covert fight, like I'm good, I have to say, like the pandemic, seems to be a running theme that it's kind of help. poland, page or in touch to say that she listened to the entire but porno in the lab.
