Purport

The phrase sūta uvāca (“Sūta Gosvāmī said”) appears to indicate a break in the discourse between Mahārāja Parīkṣit and Śukadeva Gosvāmī. While Śukadeva Gosvāmī was speaking to Mahārāja Parīkṣit, Sūta Gosvāmī was only one member of a large audience. But Sūta Gosvāmī was speaking to the sages of Naimiṣāraṇya, headed by the sage Śaunaka, a descendant of Śukadeva Gosvāmī. This, however, does not make any substantial difference in the topics under discussion.

Translation
Sūta Gosvāmī said: O Śaunaka, son of Bhṛgu! The sage Maitreya, thus inspired by Vidura, being pleased, began to reply to the questions, which he had kept in his heart. Addressing Śaunaka as son of Bhṛgu suggests that he is capable of understanding the knowledge. “Kept in his heart” means he did not forget the questions.
