Say What?! - A Daily Kids News Show
Pip wants to tell you what happened in the world today. So does Vera, but she's mostly going to roll her eyes about it. Brad's just here for the vibes. And Grump? Grump is mostly asleep but somehow always says the wisest thing.
Welcome to Say What?! — the only daily news show for kids 5 to 10 where the news is real and everything else is also somehow real. Every morning, the four hosts dig into three of the strangest, funniest, most "did that actually happen?" stories from around the world. A goat eating a town's welcome mats. A truck full of bees loose on the highway. A robot delaying a flight to San Diego.
On Fridays, things get wilder. We get a caller from somewhere different in the world — China one week, Brazil the next, Jamaica the one after — and we try our best to help them with a problem that only really happens in their country.
Stories are real. Reactions are loud. Everyone's fine in the end (even the goat).
Made for car rides, breakfast tables, and bedtime giggles. About 5 to 7 minutes per episode. A new one every morning.
