Wonder World Podcast Monday, May 20

Published on: 20th May, 2024

Hey there, Wonder World listeners! It's Pam and Olivia and we're ready to dive into the latest episode with all kinds of surprising celebrations and fun tidbits. The third week of May brings a handful of quirky holidays, such as "be a millionaire day" on May 20th, "lucky penny day" on May 23rd and May 26th is a double whammy with "blueberry cheesecake day" and "paper airplane day". Anyone else feeling a sudden urge to bake blueberry cheesecake and fly paper airplanes?

But that's not all! Get ready for some hilarious jokes from our young listeners, including pizza-themed banter and a clever bowling quip. These talented jokesters never fail to bring a smile to our faces. We also have a heartwarming fable, a challenging riddle, birthday shout-outs, and don't miss the word of the week, "affluent", to add a little sophistication to your daily conversations.

So gather the family around and tune in for an entertaining and enlightening episode of the Wonder World Podcast. Happy listening and keep on wondering!
