| 0:00.0 | Hello everybody, welcome to Life with Nat, little Nat's niece is spesh because I'm going on holiday. So whilst I'm away, we're doing |
| 0:23.2 | a few little random ones because I never want you to be without a pod on a Monday and Thursday |
| 0:27.3 | and I know you'll appreciate it. Hello, girls. Hi. We all good? Yeah, all good. Thank you. |
| 0:32.7 | Excellent. Excellent. So there's a little thread that I've been chatting to a few people about, which is freedom, children, screen times. Was it better in the 80s and 90s when everyone was playing out? They weren't on games. It's just such a broad subject, but I've not spoken to you both about it. So I thought, let's just kick off |
| 0:55.3 | and see what you think about it all. I was actually listening to a pod the other night. It was a bit |
| 1:00.9 | deeper. It was about women's rights and freedom, just on the point of freedom, and saying, |

| 1:52.6 | Always going back to food. |
| 1:55.5 | But you know what? |
| 1:56.6 | It's interesting because I worked with children. |
| 1:59.0 | So I worked in a nursery and then I remember coming to look at I worked with children. So I worked in a nursery. |
| 2:01.4 | And then I remember coming to look at nurseries with you for Alfie. |
| 2:06.7 | And it's all just what the children. |
| 2:09.3 | So when we used to have specific times, you'd have messy playing, then you'd have story time. |
