411. Farting Lobster, Burping Crab: Part 1

Mon, 12 Oct 2026
When Derek the lobster and Kiwa the crab find out that New What City needs their help, they leave their sewer home and set out on a magical—and sometimes gassy—adventure.

Lessons include: Working together doesn’t always mean doing the same thing; we never need to make a big deal about farts and burps. It’s just a body doing what comes naturally.

410. Gavin asks: What if Fred could turn anything into sticks?

Mon, 05 Oct 2026
When Fred wakes up in a stick-free meadow, he’ll do anything in his power to find something to chew.

Lessons include: Taking responsibility for our mistakes; listening to other people’s body boundaries (even when you’re a make believe dog).

This is the audio-only version of a YouTube video shot in front of a green screen for a kid-friendly, low-stimulation, no AI video. Grownups, you can find it via this link or by searching on YouTube Kids for What If World.

Note: While chewing on a big sturdy stick can be fun for a dog, don’t let them consume the pieces. And don’t let them chew on Oak, which is not considered pet-safe.

Mon, 28 Sep 2026
On his first day of school, Jackson (played by Hamish Steele) gets turned into a giant monster! Will he crash through Mystak City or get sent to outer space?

Lessons include: Everyone needs an outlet for their big feelings; taking a little break in a big moment just takes a little imagination.
