They made it themselves, on their phones. What could it be?
2020 has been a pretty weird year, right? But at least we know one thing: Short & Curly listeners are the best! So here’s something just for you.
Nut allergies are one of the super dangerous food allergies. If you’re allergic to nuts, it causes anaphylaxis and sometimes death. Today’s BITE: Should we ban nuts since people with allergies can die if they eat them? Thanks to Tammy for this excellent question.
You can do things on the sporting field which would be a big no no at almost any other time. Today’s BITE: Should rough sports be banned? Thanks to Nora for this excellent question.
Have you ever asked why you have to do something and your parent or an adult says to you, “Because I say so”? It’s so infuriating, right? Today’s BITE: Do we have to do everything our parents tell us to? Thanks to Samira for this excellent question.
We get so curly many questions sent to us that we thought we’d make some special mini bite-sized versions of the show for you to nibble on!
So many birds, mammals and insects which once existed on Earth are now gone forever — extinct, kaput! This got Carl thinking, what if forever wasn’t really forever? Should we try and bring some of these creatures back, especially if it was humans who caused them to become extinct in the first place?
When Molly and Carl are not making Short & Curly they are in charge of the world’s biggest video sharing platform, called, TubeVids. That’s right, it’s their job to watch gaming videos, and movie parodies all day long! But it’s not all fun and cat videos, people also post lots of mean stuff, as well as videos that are straight out untrue. What should they do about it? Let all the videos stay online or censor what we get to see?

At first I made this site for my kids, but like any dad I got a little over excited. I hope you find it as useful as they do.
Whether you want to listen to them together in the car, or alone in your room - the content is all safe for younger ears.
Some brilliant points raised in this. I think really kids just want to emulate the adults they care about and do ‘adult’ looking things.
I know I used to love a small non-alcoholic shandy when I was a kid and we were out for a meal, and pretending to smoke with those candy sticks when it was cold in winter always felt naughty. But I don’t believe anyone that says they drink beer for the taste of it.
