Your daily kids news podcast.

Moon planet crash science; South Africa’s hippo town; Roos and Matildas celebrate wins; and the world’s smallest horse.


It’s ball-mania in Australia! The Matildas kicked off summer with a 5–0 soccer blitz against NZ (without Sam Kerr!). Meanwhile, the AFLW grand final saw the Kangaroos hop into history, smashing the Lions to go back-to-back champs!

In the town of St Lucia, South Africa, hippos are leaving the wild and waddling into people’s front yards for late-night lawn snacks!

Scientists have cracked more Moon secrets! Turns out Earth’s big grey neighbour was born from a cosmic crash with a Mars-sized planet named Theia.

Say hello to Pumuckel — the world’s smallest horse at just 53cm tall! This pocket-sized pony isn’t just adorable, he’s a therapy animal bringing joy to hospitals.
