SME #6: Boston Cream Pirate

Petey the Pirate, Randall Radbot, and Cthunkle help Miss Lynn and Mr. Eric gets stumped over and over, thanks to your great questions.

Part trivia podcast, part interview show, Stump Mr. Eric lets you ask us all kinds of questions. Tell us some trivia you know, or ask a question for Mr. Eric, Miss Lynn, or a What If World character of your choice. We try something new every month, so give us a challenge for one of our segments. Speaking in rhymes or questions? Improv games? Riddles? You name it, and (with any luck) we'll try it!

We need your questions! With your grownup's permission, supporters can send Stumper questions and ideas to whatifworldpodcast@gmail.com. Use the word "Stump" or "Stumper" in the subject line, please. 

Make sure to share the answers, too, so we can all learn together. And as always, let's keep it kind!

70. What if phoenixes turned into tacos instead of ashes?

In our second April Fool’s special, the Wentbridge Timers go up against the Observatorium Grumblers in the biggest (and only-est) basketball game What If World’s ever seen. Pay attention, because the story might try to play some tricks on Mr. Eric.

Lessons include: everyone loses sometimes, but it’s only a true defeat if you let it be; winning doesn’t make you superior to others

19. What if we stopped having birthdays?

Buster Biz-Business gets more than he bargained when he wishes for everyone to stop having birthdays. Everyone keeps getting older, but they still treat he and his sister Babs like babies! Randall Radbot returns as their chilled out babysitter. (He's over four hundred years old, so humans of all ages look about the same to him.)
