A super special fun episode with the debut of Lilly on the podcast! This is the one where Emma and Elliot chat with their 4-year-old daughter, and she ends up taking over the conversation and interviewing us about all sorts of things - getting a bit carried away. Lots of laughing as she was in a silly mood!
