Hello, everybody.
I'm Maria, and my name is Rory.
And we are the hosts of the IELTS speaking for Success podcast.
And next week on March 13, we will be the hosts of the IELTS speaking for success webinar from 04:00 until 05:00 Moscow time.
Yes, this is the unique time when you can see Rory and myself, our pretty faces, and Rory will be doing a full IELTS speaking test.
He'll crack jokes on his feet, so no preparation whatsoever.
It will be fun.
So please do join in.
We do need everyone to join in.
Okay, absolutely.
We really insist that everybody is there.

Rory, I predict you have a joke for me, right?
Yeah, you read my mind.
Oh, he's reading my mind.
So, dear listeners, today we're gonna talk about reading and books.
Rory, do you enjoy reading?
Yes, I do.
I've always loved it, actually.
I think it stems from my childhood, when my mother would read books to me.
