1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:03,000
Speaker 1: There's nothing better than feeling comfortable in your own shoes,

2
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 1: and that doesn't mean flopping down on the couch with

3
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:08,640
Speaker 1: bunny slippers. Maybe you're a parent raising a little rock star,

4
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,959
Speaker 1: or a tech nomad working from anywhere and jumping from

5
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 1: one thing to the next. Whoever you are, all Birds

6
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: wants you to be comfortable in your actual shoes too.

7
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:21,279
Speaker 1: They're wool runners, pipers, and loungers are designed for a

8
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 1: level of coziness that makes you feel like you can

9
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:26,479
Speaker 1: do anything. You might even forget you're wearing them, and

10
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:29,720
Speaker 1: their shoes are so stylish they go perfectly without wear

11
00:00:29,800 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: whatever I want attitude. Alberts is all about loving mother

12
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: nature too, because no one wants to leave a bad footprint.

13
00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: Each shoe is carefully crafted from natural materials that tread

14
00:00:39,880 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 1: lightly on our planet, from ZQ certified Marino wool to

15
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,880
Speaker 1: a bouncy midsole made from sweet Foam, the world's first

16
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,959
Speaker 1: carbon negative EVA material made from sugarcane. So get comfortable

17
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: in your shoes. Get to know the wool runners, pipers

18
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 1: and loungers at Alberts dot com. That's alll bi rds

19
00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:04,920
Speaker 1: dot com. You watch anxiously as the man heads off

20
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: into the trees. Then turn and head toward the hut.

21
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,440
Speaker 1: You approach a low fence that runs all the way

22
00:01:14,480 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 1: around it, made from oddly misshapen planks of wood that

23
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:23,240
Speaker 1: look weirdly like bones. Only now do you see how

24
00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:27,039
Speaker 1: old and dilapidated the cabin is, how its pointy, lopsided

25
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,919
Speaker 1: roof seems like it might slip off at any moment.

26
00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 1: Two large clumps of scaly roots that look strangely like

27
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: two giant chickens feet seem to crawl out from underneath it,

28
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:42,640
Speaker 1: as if the house itself were a living thing that

29
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 1: had grown out of the earth. You push on through

30
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 1: the gate and head up to the front door. Hello,

31
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: is any one there? Pressing your ear to the door

32
00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 1: for a moment, you think you hear someone shuffling about inside.

33
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: You try again, Hello, but still the door remains shut. Annoyed,

34
00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,040
Speaker 1: you look about for any sign of the man from before,

35
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:27,239
Speaker 1: but see nothing. With no other choice, you head back

36
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:29,960
Speaker 1: out to the fence and take a seat by the gate.

37
00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: After what seems like ours still there is no sign

38
00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,760
Speaker 1: of him, and now it is starting to get dark.

39
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,959
Speaker 1: If you decide to keep waiting, go to episode nine

40
00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,520
Speaker 1: If you decide to head back into the forest, go

41
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 1: to episode ten. Now it's time to take care of yourself.
