Welcome to Our Henhouse. This is Mary Ann Sullivan, and this is Jasmine Singer.

0:13.4

And this week, Jasmine is interviewing writer, director, and animator Rachel Larson,

0:18.1

who is also one of the best friends of and a huge help to one of our

0:22.1

favorite celebrities and TV stars, The Tiny Chef.

0:25.7

I am completely starstruck.

0:27.9

It should be.

0:28.8

You should be.

0:29.6

It was just really fascinating, getting to get into the head of Tiny Chef a little bit, because

0:35.4

And then, and then I turn to you and you're much younger than I am. And you can't remember half of what I can remember.

1:27.7

So it always makes me feel better.

1:30.3

I'm happy I'm happy I you and you're much younger than I am, and you can't remember half of what I can remember.

1:33.6

So it always makes me feel better. I'm happy I'm happy I get to play that role in your life.

1:37.9

You're serving a good purpose. There might be people who are listening who do not know who the tiny chef is, which, you know, is shocking. But then listen, if that's the case,
