This is the podcast you put on during the morning carpool when you're tired of explaining headlines your 9-year-old overheard at school. Newsy Pooloozi does the work of making world events accessible without dumbing them down or creating anxiety.

The mother-daughter format feels authentic rather than gimmicky, and the international kid correspondents mean it's not just an American news bubble. It's educational in the best way—kids don't realize they're learning because they're actually engaged.

If you want your kid to understand what's happening in the world beyond Roblox updates and YouTube drama, this is a solid weekly ritual. Not every episode will land with every kid, but that's news—sometimes space exploration hits, sometimes it's sports, sometimes it's tech. The variety keeps it from getting stale.
