Hey everyone, trusty here. One of the things I love about hosting Who Smarted is getting to answer all those amazing questions from Curious Smarty Pants.

And that's why I'm excited to tell you about another show that does exactly that, our friends podcast, but why?

A podcast for curious kids. Have you ever asked something like, why does the wind blow, or does skyscrapers actually scrape the sky? And you weren't quite sure of the answer. Well, but why has you covered? They've answered questions from over 16,000 kids across 90 countries, and they're not afraid to tackle any topic. Even the gross ones that make grown-up squirm.

I mean, they have whole episodes about poop and making paint from spit and rocks. How cool is that?

Their team gets real experts to answer real questions from real kids like you.

So if your family loves learning interesting stuff on Who Smarted,

you'll definitely want to check out But Why.

You can find But Why wherever you get your podcasts.

Next question. What part of the brain controls sleep? Is it A, the cerebellum? B, the hypothalamus,

or C, the hippocampus. Did you choose B? Spot on. The hypothalamus regulates sleep

Last question. What is the term for dreams that you can control?
