Is That True?

Season 2 Call for Submissions

 

Arionne: There are A LOT of facts we learn every day.

Jada: Did you know that humans are mammals and animals are also mammals?

Brooklyn: Did you know that Kenya is located in east Africa? 

Arionne: But those facts lead us to a much bigger question: How do we know what we think is true is actually true?

Hi friends. I’m Arionne Nettles. I’m a journalist, a college professor, and host of Is That True? It’s a kids podcast … about facts.

And here on Is That True? we’re getting ready for Season Two! 

Did you know that the whole time Harriett Tubman led the Underground Railroad she had a brain injury!? Or that the original name of Oakland, California is Huichiun? Or that we celebrate Halloween based on the Celtic festival of Samhain?

We want to hear from you! From history to science, art to social justice, and outer space to the food on your plate, what facts do you want to explore together?

Write to us at listen@akidspodcastabout.com and we’ll tell you how you can submit your fact.

Each week on Season Two, we’ll go on a fact-checking investigation. And we’ll do this with experts — those are people whose job it is to know these things.

We’ll be checking all of these facts out together. YOUR facts. Because when you have evidence to support your knowledge, what you know becomes even stronger!

So, again, write to us at listen@akidspodcastabout.com to share your facts!

We can’t wait to hear from you! We’re going to have LOTS of fun doing this. And, we’ll learn a thing or two about how to sniff out the truth along the way! This is Arionne, and I can’t wait to investigate with you!
