After a brief delay, for which we apologize, we’re back with the final episode of season 5: Questionpa5za, in which we answer many questions from our wonderful listeners. Buckle up; this is a wild one. Happy listening!

For the last few seasons we have been receiving some truly delightful short stories, written by listeners of this podcast. In this very special episode, we share four of them (complete with sound-effects). So grab a snack and tune in because we assure you: hijinks are just around the corner!

Sarah Mackenzie is an advocate for all things children’s books, first with her podcast, The Read Aloud Revival, but now also through her publishing imprint, Waxwing Books, through which she has published her first picture book, A Little More Beautiful.

Brandon Mull is the author of many books for children, perhaps most notably the Fablehaven books, but he’s very interested in stories of all kinds—and snacks—so it only makes sense that he came on Withwyindle to discuss both. So sit back, hit play, and check out our conversation with him, plus all the usual nonsense an episode typically includes! Thanks for listening!

Jasmine Warga is the award-winning author of middle grade and YA novels including, most recently, A Rover’s Story, the journey of a fictional mars rover named Resilience. This week, however, she ventures on to planet Withwyindle to share her favorite snacks, dig into her knowledge of a real planet, and explore her thoughts on a variety of other topics. Plus, this episode has Lazy Words, Riddle Time, Story Time, and more. All in all, it’s full of the usual delightful (non)nonsense Withywindle is known for. Happy listening, friends!

This isn’t Daniel Nayeri’s first time on the Withywindle podcast, but it’s a fresh experience every time you get to chat with someone as fun and insightful as he is, so we’re very excited to have him back on to discuss his new book (and fooooood, of course). Plus, we’ve got more lazy words, silly jokes, snacks, stories, riddles, and all the rest of the nonsense! Thanks for tuning in yet again!
