Hooray for May Birthdays & Celebrations!
Let’s party! We’re celebrating Wow in the World‘s 9th birthday, introducing our brand spanking new vodcast Two Whats?! And A Wow!: People Who Wow Edition, and saying thanks to Moms, Teachers, and more! Check out all the “cheer-full” content we have in store!
Two Whats?! And A Wow! Returns With a New Twist — People Who Wow!
Two Whats?! And A Wow!: People Who Wow Edition is the new getting-to-know-you game show from the creators of Wow in the World, the #1 podcast for curious kids and their grownups. Hosted by the award-winning Mindy Thomas, this gamified reverse interview podcast features fascinating guests—from extraordinary kids to celebrities to people with amazing jobs—sharing surprising facts (Wows!) and sneaky fibs (Whaaaats?!) about their lives, inviting listeners to guess what’s real. Blending gameplay with real conversation, the show encourages curiosity and connection in a digital world. And each episode ends with a challenge that helps kids build meaningful relationships in their own lives. Listen to new episodes every Friday in the Wow in the World podcast feed. You can also watch every episode on our WowTube channel!
