About “Really True!”
Really True! is the English science podcast for curious kids aged 7 and up. In every episode, host Robin and kid co-host Lou take on a famous myth – the kind grown-ups, movies and schoolyards keep repeating – and check whether it is actually true.
They follow each story back to the source, talk to the research (think MIT, peer-reviewed studies, museums and science journals) and explain in plain, friendly English what scientists really say. No shouting, no fear, no clickbait – just clear thinking, real sources and a lot of curiosity.
Three brand-new episodes a week make Really True! a perfect everyday companion for families, classrooms and homeschool – on the school run, after class, at dinner or before bed. The clear, friendly English also makes the show a favourite with kids learning English as a second language.
