Everything Under The Sun

Welcome to Episode 18 of Season 7 everyone! Everything Under The Sun has been nominated for Best British Podcast in the kids category, has moved to Bali, Indonesia, and the paperback book of Everything Under The Sun is OUT NOW!!

We've got some very exciting questions coming up for you this week!

First off: why do people yawn? It's a question people have been asking for centuries! And it turns out, no one is really sure... we've asked Dr Sarah Holper for help, as she's an expert on the human body- she’s even written a book called What’s Wrong with You: An Insider’s Guide to Your Insides. You can find it here:

Next up: why do lions have manes? We learn about male lions and their majestic hairstyles. 

And lastly: which ocean animals are already extinct? We learn about the weird and wonderful creatures which used to live in our ocean, but sadly don't anymore.
