Summary
We’re proud to bring free, high-quality educational podcasts to families and classrooms everywhere. But as the media industry changes, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to financially sustain high-quality human-made audio shows like ours without additional help. If our shows have sparked wonder, laughter, or curiosity for your family, grown-ups, we’re asking for your support now.
Grown-ups, visit tinkercast.com/support where you can select from a handful of gifts we’ve curated to thank you for your support.
