Dorothy Madeline McElroy is here four weeks old bringing your podcast debut there she is

we've been trying to find she's a little more unpredictable than her older sister so it's not always clear like when she's going to be quiet

when she's going to hang out oh, there we go. Okay, so Theresa Murray. Yes, we've been gone a couple

weeks now. May I may I say that you had a little bit of a DJ moment just then?

Oh, did I? Yeah, you adjusted some levels while we were talking and I was quite impressed.

Oh, thank you. I thought you meant like me straightening the papers.

Oh, okay.
