Mosura fentoni, a three-eyed, claw-snapping, saw-mouthed creature swam Earth's seas 500 million years ago! This finger-sized freak looks like it beamed in from Mars but was found fossilised in Canada. Nutella’s had the toast throne, but Biscoff's spicy-sweet takeover is real!

• NSW’s big flood cleanup, and the scoop on penguin poop.

  Your daily kids news podcast. NSW’s big flood cleanup; Norway’s big boat wakeup call; Aussies kicking goals; and the scoop on penguin poop. Floods hit NSW hard, but locals are finally drying out and starting a big cleanup. Imagine opening your front door and finding a 135-metre cargo ship! That’s what happened to Johan in Norway. The ship missed his house by just metres. Green and gold are shining all over Europe! Coach Ange helped Spurs lift a trophy after 16 long years, and Arsenal’s Aussie trio helped take down the champs in the women’s league. Aussies kicking goals all over the pitch! Scientists say penguin poop might help make clouds—yep, really! The stinky stuff releases chemicals that float up and help water droplets stick together. It's smelly science, but it could change how we understand climate. For the full episode transcript, click here.

• A big political break-up, and the mega-quake misinformation.

  Stay listening after today's podcast as Bryce chats with Stephen Gniel, head of Australia's national curriculum authority, about why media literacy is now part of the curriculum. A big political break-up; Massachusetts’ Magna Carta millions; octopus or pancake?; and the mega-quake misinformation. Even political besties can have a bust-up! After decades as a team, Australia’s Liberal and National Parties have split over energy plans. Now they’re sitting separately in Parliament. Will they patch things up? A super old copy of the Magna Carta just turned up at Harvard Law School — and it’s an original! Once thought to be just a dusty copy, this 725-year-old treasure is worth a fortune. A new sea creature has been discovered — it’s a squishy, pancake-shaped octopus with flappy 'ears'! A comic book author's dream is causing a real-life panic! A wild rumour says a megaquake will hit Japan in July, but earthquakes can’t be predicted by dreams (or doodles).
