- A Thousand Ryans Ride a Coaster / Eighty-Foot Basketball Shot / Lost Pouch Animals Found in Australia / Caller from Turkey: Jumping and Spilling TeaSay What?! is the daily news show for kids 5 to 10, where three real, strange, true stories get the absurd comedy treatment. Today: more than a thousand people all named Ryan gather at a giant shopping mall and ride the same roller coaster, one after another, for a brand new world record. A basketball player in Egypt steps back eighty feet and sinks the shot, then does it again, breaking two world records in a single day. And real science: scientists in Australia find tiny teeth in old rocks belonging to a whole branch of pouch animals nobody knew existed, mouse-sized bug-eaters from eighteen million years ago. Plus a Friday caller from Turkey who cannot stop jumping and has spilled two years of tea.

9 min - Clever Parrot Rules the Roost With a Broken Beak / Mystery Space Balls Wash Up on a Beach / The Birds That Forgot Their Own SongSay What?! is the daily news show for kids 5 to 10, where three real, strange, true stories get the absurd comedy treatment. Today: a clever New Zealand parrot named Bruce lost part of his beak as a chick and invented his own way to eat, becoming the undisputed boss of the flock. Then, six mysterious shiny metal spheres washed up on an Australian beach and had firefighters in hazmat suits standing by, until scientists revealed they were just harmless space junk. And finally, scientists in Australia are teaching endangered baby songbirds the right tune, because with so few adult birds left, some chicks never got to learn their own species' song.

About Say What?! Kids News & Comedy Podcast (Ages 5-10)
From the publisher's feed
Say What?! is the funny kids news podcast for curious kids ages 5 to 10, built for the morning school run, family car rides, breakfast tables, and bedtime giggles. Every Monday, Wednesday, and…
Friday, four puppet hosts turn three real, strange, true news stories from around the world into 6 minutes of screen-free family comedy.
Meet the crew: Pip wants to tell you what happened in the world today. Vera is mostly going to roll her eyes about it. Brad is just here for the vibes. And Grump is mostly asleep, yet somehow always says the wisest thing. Together they cover positive science discoveries, weird animal rescues, space missions, and real-world oddities: a goat eating a town's welcome mats, scientists baking cookies from recycled plastic, or a white lobster going to college.
On Fridays, we open the phone lines for our International Kid Caller segment, where a caller from a different country brings a funny local problem and the crew tries their best to solve it.
Stories are 100% real, kid-safe, and parent-approved (zero scary news, zero violence, zero bathroom humor). Everyone is fine in the end, even the goat.
