Meen Mom BFF Not
Elliot says the darndest things
The world is a scary place right now and a dark place for everyone. Kids, especially, face a difficult time not know what is truly going on. For some, this means missing events, parties, school events, and for our guest on this episode of the pod... birthdays.
Elliot's 9th Birthday is TODAY and we decided that we needed to meet Indy Eleven's youngest and most outspoken fan. Hear how Elliot is staying "match fit", how many Fortnite dances he knows, and how he's already more talented than Richard and Brian... there might also be an announcement of the next member of the "Indy Eleven Academy"
