"I love Wow in the World" says Emilia, age 5 from Ellenville,NY. She always listens with her twin Lincoln and younger sister Claire

In May NPR launched Wow in the World, a new podcast for kids ages 5-12 that illuminates the wonders of science, technology, discovery and inventions. Through comedy and conversation, hosts Guy Raz and Mindy Thomas guide curious kids and their grown-ups away from their screens, inside their brains, out into space, and deep into the coolest new stories in science and technology.

We asked kids from all over what they thought about the new podcast, and the reviews are in! Listen, read and watch what the most important critics had to say:

Hadley
, 8 years old, from Culver City writes in to say:
"It's a soundtrack that gives you know more knowledge, and it's very fascinating. There are also a few jokes."

"I laughed when Mindy was out of control (which was pretty much always). It was all fascinating and made me want to learn more.

"Guy made jokes off of Mindy's jokes, and he wasn't freaking out over Mindy's behavior, like most people would."

"A big wow in my world is that I like doing algebra and I'm good at playing guitar." -Hadley
