Question Time: Grown Ups Need Not Apply
We like to think we're a pretty informed bunch at Marmalade but there's nothing like hearing the uncensored, authentically honest views of a 9-year-old to make you question your take on the world or give you a different perspective!
Today we're talking to Megan about what keeps her up at night, the future of technology and what would make the world just a little bit better.
Take it away Megan!

Nightmares, or if i'm hot.

A giant chocolate volcano that erupts every minute and everyone has giant swimming pools in their back garden, and the cats and pets have one too.
