Dobro došli u još jednu epizodu našeg podkasta. Nadamo se da vam nismo previše nedostajale je prošle nedelje kada nije bilo nove epizode. Mi smo se odmorile, a nadamo se da ste se i vi odmorili. Welcome to another episode of our podcast. We hope you didn't miss us too much last week when there was no new episode. We rested, and we hope you also rested.
U današnjoj epizodi razgovaramo o različitosti. 
In today's episode we are talking about diversity.
Da li je dobro kada smo različiti. ako se drugačije oblačimo, drugačije ponašamo ili ne i da li generalno ovo možemo često da vidimo u Srbiji? Is it good when we are different, if we dress differently, behave differently or not, and can we generally see this often in Serbia?

Nevena (00:42)
Da, dobro došli ponovo u našu epizodu posle ove kratke pauze. Nastavljamo jače i bolje nego ikada ranije. Nadamo se. I danas želimo da razgovaramo o ovoj interesantnoj temi. Yes, welcome back to our episode after this short break. We continue stronger and better than ever before. We hope so. And today we want to talk about this interesting topic.

Danas razgovaramo o svakodnevnoj rutini i navikama – da li su one dobre ili loše za nas? Pričamo o našim lošim navikama, na primer kada radimo previše ili provodimo mnogo vremena na telefonu. Ali razgovaramo i o lepim hobijima koji nas usrećuju, kao što su pisanje i učenje novih jezika. Takođe, delimo iskustva o tome kako pronalazimo motivaciju za promene i kako izlazimo iz zone komfora.
Podsetnik: Sledeće nedelje pravimo kratku pauzu zbog odmora, a ponovo se čujemo 17. avgusta!

Tako je, dobro došli u još jednu epizodu našeg podkasta i mi danas razgovaramo o rutini i o navikama. Da li imamo neke dobre ili loše rutine i da li možemo lako da promenimo ovu rutinu ili ovu naviku. That's right, welcome to another episode of our podcast and today we are talking about routine and habits. Do we have some good or bad routines and can we easily change this routine or this habit.
Nevena (00:30)
Tako je, danas razgovaramo o ovoj temi zato što je ona važna za nas sada. I ja, prošlih meseci, sada je avgust, ali ja sam u julu, junu i maju razmišljala da moram da promenim rutinu. Dakle, moram sada da imam novu rutinu. That's right, today we are talking about this topic because it is important for us now. And I, in recent months, now it's August, but in July, June, and May I was thinking that I have to change my routine. So, I need to have a new routine now.

Danas razgovaramo o svakodnevnoj rutini i navikama i o tome da li su nam one prijatelj ili neprijatelj. Delimo iskustva o tome kako se borimo sa lošim navikama poput stalnog rada i „doomskrolovanja”, ali i kako se vraćamo hobijima koji nas pokreću, poput pisanja i učenja jezika. Razgovaramo i o izlasku iz zone komfora i važnosti motivacije. Podsećamo vas i da sledeće nedelje pravimo kratku pauzu zbog odmor, i vidimo se opet 17. avgusta!

Tako je, dobro došli u još jednu epizodu našeg podkasta i mi danas razgovaramo o rutini. Da li je ona nama prijatelj ili nam je neprijatelj i da li treba da promenimo neke navike. That's right, welcome to another episode of our podcast and today we are talking about routine. Is it a friend to us or is it an enemy, and should we change some habits.
Nevena (00:24)
Ovo je tema o kojoj me mnogo razmišljam u poslednje vreme zato što mislim da sam zapala u jednu jako lošu rutinu, gde mi se sve vrti oko komputera i uglavnom oko nekog posla i tako dalje i razmišljam ja, generalno kao osoba koja ima toliko hobija i koja voli da uči nove stvari, voli da isprobava nove stvari i tako dalje, osećam kako mi pod hitno treba promena. This is a topic I think about a lot lately because I think I've fallen into a really bad routine, where everything revolves around the computer and mostly around some work and so on, and I'm thinking, generally as a person who has so many hobbies and who likes to learn new things, likes to try out new things and so on, I feel like I urgently need a change.
Ne znam da li je i kod tebe ovako ili si ti skroz okej? I don't know if it's like this with you too or if you are totally okay?

Danas razgovaramo o kulturi u Srbiji i njenom mestu u društvu, sa posebnim fokusom na pozorišta i muzeje u Beogradu. Delimo sa vama naša lična iskustva i otkrivamo zašto je kupovina pozorišnih karata u Beogradu pravi izazov, kao i zašto je gledanje predstava odličan način za učenje srpskog jezika, čak i ako pratite radnju uglavnom kroz mimiku i govor tela.
U drugom delu epizode vodimo vas kroz beogradske muzeje. Pričamo o bogatoj umetničkoj zbirci Narodnog muzeja na Trgu republike, ali i o zanimljivostima Istorijskog muzeja, čija se glavna zgrada sa originalnim eksponatima nalazi u prelepom Topčiderskom parku.

Jelena (00:10)
Tako je, dobro došli u još jednu epizodu našeg podkasta i mi danas razgovaramo o kulturi. Hoćemo da razgovaramo o tome da li je kultura važna u Srbiji i koje je njeno mesto u društvu generalno. That's right, welcome to another episode of our podcast and today we are talking about culture. We want to talk about whether culture is important in Serbia and what its place is in society in general.
Nevena (00:28)
Da, ovo je jedna tema koju je Jelena predložila i ti si odmah rekla da je ovo jako široka tema, dakle možemo u njoj da razgovaramo iz mnogo uglova. I meni je definitivno prva asociacija bila razgovor o pozorištima. Zato što kada razmišljamo kulturi, nekako uvek pomislim na predstave, na pozorišta i na taj jedan aspekt zabave. Zato što je zaista mnogo drugačiji od toga kada idemo u bioskop. Yes, this is a topic that Jelena suggested and you immediately said that this is a very broad topic, so we can talk about it from many angles. And for me, the first association was definitely a conversation about theaters. Because when we think about culture, somehow I always think of plays, of theaters, and of that one aspect of entertainment. Because it really is very different from when we go to the cinema.
I rekla bih da zapravo ima mnogo ljudi koji idu redovno u pozorišta i to vidimo ako želimo, na primer, da kupimo kartu. I u Beogradu je to tako da, u principu, čekamo kraj meseca, da pozorišta izbace repertoar za sledeći mesec i moramo da budemo jako brzi da bi smo uspili da kupimo kartu, pogotovo za popularne predstave, dakle predstave koje su u tom trenutku najposećenije. And I would say that there are actually many people who go to theaters regularly and we see that if we want, for example, to buy a ticket. And in Belgrade it's like that, in principle, we wait for the end of the month for theaters to release the repertoire for the next month and we have to be very fast so that we manage to buy a ticket, especially for popular plays, that is, plays that are the most visited at that moment.
