Part trivia, part interview, Stump Mr. Eric is a show where you can ask us any question. Share some trivia you know, or ask a question for Mr. Eric, Miss Lynn, or a What If World character of your choice. If you'd like to see something weird happen on the show, give us a challenge for one of our trivia/interview segments. Speaking in rhymes or questions? Improv games? Riddles? Silly contests? You name it, and (with any luck) we'll try it!
We need your questions! With your grownup's permission, send stumper questions, answers, and ideas to whatifworldpodcast@gmail.com. Please use "Stump" or "Stumper" in the subject line.
Make sure to share the answers, too, so we can learn together. And as always, let's keep it kind!

When Fred catches a “glowed” (think an especially shiny cold), he starts duplicating everyone in What If World with his magical sneezes!
