Here is the transcript:

Печкин: Ничего себе! Вашу маму и там, и тут передают. До чего техника дошла! 

Мама: Я же говорила, что не могу жить без вашего Простоквашино.

Кабы не было зимы
В гоpодах и сёлах,
Hикогда б не знали мы
Этих дней весёлых.

Hе кружила б малышня
Возле снежной бабы,
Hе петляла бы лыжня,
Кабы, кабы, кабы…
Hе петляла бы лыжня,
Кабы, кабы, кабы…

Кабы не было зимы,
А всё время лето,
Мы б не знали кутерьмы
Hовогодней этой,
Hе спешил бы Дед Мороз
К нам через ухабы,
Лёд на речке б не замёрз
Кабы, кабы, кабы…
Лёд на речке б не замёрз
Кабы, кабы, кабы…

Translation:

Pechkin: Wow! They broadcast your mother both here and there. What technology has come to!

Mom: I told you that I can't live without your Prostokvashino.

If there had been no winter,
 in the cities and villages,
we would never have known
these happy days.
The little ones wouldn't be circling 
around the snow woman,
The ski track wouldn't be winding,
If only, if only, if only... 

If only it weren't winter,
And all the time it's summer,
We wouldn't know this New Year's chaos,
Santa Claus wouldn't rush to us through the potholes,
The ice on the river wouldn't freeze
If only, if only, if only...

Daria Molchanova’s Slow Russian offers a patient, accessible path to understanding spoken Russian. As an experienced teacher, Daria structures each episode around clear, deliberately paced conversation, removing the common hurdle of native speed that can overwhelm learners. The core of this podcast is its namesake pace: spoken Russian delivered slowly enough to follow, yet naturally enough to feel authentic. Each segment typically includes a vocabulary breakdown, where key words and phrases are explained in context, turning listening practice into a direct lesson. Beyond grammar and pronunciation, Daria weaves in observations on Russian culture, traditions, and the nuances of daily life, providing the contextual glue that makes language stick. It’s designed for those who want to move beyond textbooks and engage with the rhythm and substance of the language in a manageable way. The result is a learning tool that feels less like a lecture and more like a guided tour of the Russian language, building comprehension and confidence with each slow-spoken episode. You can find more resources and episodes on the podcast’s main website.
