• The solar system gets a visitor, and skibidi goes mainstream.

  Your daily kids news podcast. The solar system gets a visitor; a 10-year-old makes chess history; skibidi goes mainstream; and solar cars race the outback. An interstellar comet is zipping through our solar system like a space tourist with no time to stop! It’s super fast, super far, and maybe even alien (probably not, but wouldn’t that be cool?). At just 10 years old, Bodhana Sivanandan checkmated a grandmaster! This chess superstar started playing at five and just made history. The Cambridge Dictionary just got a glow-up with silly words like skibidi and delulu. It’s official—chaos now has vocabulary! Zooming across Australia using only sunshine? That’s what teams are doing in the World Solar Car Challenge! For the full episode transcript, click here.

• China’s robot Olympics, and Black Pink break a record.

A 5.6-magnitude earthquake shook parts of Queensland, the biggest one on land in Australia in 50 years! In China, robots raced, played soccer, and even kickboxed in a weekend of wacky robo-sports. There were plenty of spills and giggles, but it’s just the start of what these clever machines might do in the future. The Wallabies pulled off a rugby miracle, smashing a 62-year losing streak to beat South Africa in their own backyard. Blackpink made pop history, becoming the first K-pop girl group to play two massive shows at Wembley Stadium in London. ⁠Your Shortcut to Earthquakes and Volcanoes⁠ For the full episode transcript, click here.
