They're the people who we learn about in school, and then there are the ones we don't.

From the creators of Wow in the World, Who When Wow is a new tinkercast original podcast

for curious kids and their grownups.

Each week, host Rebecca Sheer takes you into the lives of history, unsung heroes, in

heroines, and amazing humans who make us say, wow, like Shirley Chisholm, the first African

American woman in Congress, or the first lady of physics, Dr. Sheen Chian Wu, or Roberto

Comente, one of the greatest baseball players of his time.

You're about to hear a preview of the Shirley Chisholm episode.

While you're listening, you can follow Who When Wow on Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music,

or listen ad-free, and one week early by subscribing to Wondry Plus Kids in Apple Podcasts,

Much better.

But you get the idea, right?
