S4 E2: Margot + Ivy (age 7)
Continuing our series of episodes with children in Australia, this episode features 7-year-old friends Margot and Ivy. We talked about the songs and movies that make them laugh-- have you heard the “Never-ending poop song”?—and a few that scare them—like E.T. and Wednesday. They have little interest in TikTok and really aren’t sure what people use it for. Although that doesn’t stop them from knowing a few TikTok dances. But the item they can’t wait to have? a mobile phone! That, and access to the Taylor Swift concert movie. They know the words to lots of her songs—of course! We talked about Bluey, Minecraft, and loads more. Give it a listen. Hear real kids in their own words talking about the media in their lives. I hope you enjoy this episode.

S3 E6: Sherri shares thoughts about a recent episode
This episode is a bit different. I am sharing thoughts about a recent experience in which I removed a podcast at a parent's request. What might you have done in this situation?

S3 E5: Theodoro + Lorenzo (age 10)
In this episode you’ll meet 10-year old best pals, Theodoro and Lorenzo. We recorded the podcast in Sao Paulo, Brazil, the boys hometown. It’s the first Kids Talk Media episode recorded outside the US and with a translator, Theodoro’s Dad, Alex. It was interesting to hear the boys talk about favorites that are so similar to boys I’ve talked to in the US. They love Fortnite, GT8, and Scooby Doo, play with Legos and collect football (soccer) trading cards. And watch YouTube videos from their favorite video game players, like Mr. Beast. You don’t need to understand Portuguese to understand their feelings about the animated character Peppa Pig! I hope you enjoy this episode.
