Virtual reality is no more just a fantasy place where gamers like to go. Doctors are beginning to use VR goggles to help people become calm and even forget pain. Electric batteries now don't need to be discarded. Old ones can be used to power smaller autos – as one company Nunam showed us this year. Video game characters are becoming more diverse – no longer do you need to pay for female characters – all thanks to Maddie, a 12 year old in the US, who wrote to video game companies to make their work more fair.

You can find a lot of these stories covered in the most entertaining and lively manner by 3 children – 8-yr Nyra, 8-yr Devansh and 12-yr Aashi. We say no more beyond the fact that you will find this 18 min episode, one of the best conversations you have heard, in 2022.
