In this special episode of the Gastro Girl Podcast, we're giving listeners of all ages a playful, educational sneak peek into the world of Woof Chat Kids—a creative kids education initiative from the Giz Kids Foundation.

Now, thanks to a partnership with the Gastro Girl Patient Institute (GGPI), Woof Chat Kids is expanding its mission with Oliver Super Beardie—our fuzzy superhero and digestive health education dog—leading the way to help kids better understand their gut health and overall wellness.

Join host Jacqueline Gaulin, expert guest Dr. Neil Stollman, and Oliver, as they explore belly bugs (a.k.a. the gut microbiome), explain how food fuels good gut health, and take on the "Battle of the Bugs" in true superhero style.

This episode blends science, storytelling, and silliness to make health education fun for kids—and the grown-ups who love them.

Special thanks to John Kennedy, the incredible puppeteer and voice behind Oliver Super Beardie, whose creativity and heart bring our superhero pup to life in every adventure.
