Hey, Wowzer fans, Mindy here.
And before we start the show, I gotta let you know that this November, with a special new episode featuring our friends at Circle Round and Terrestrials on Radiolab for Kids,
And don't miss when Elmo from Sesame Street stops by Wow in the World to make us all belly laugh on November 24th.
Oh, but that's not all, Reg.
On December 1st, we are sharing our 250th episode of Wow in the World with all of you.
We think this one is going to be music to your ears.
Literally.
Did I mention it's a musical?
And if you're a member of the World Organization of Wowzers...
Oh boy, do I have a surprise for you.
You can listen to our 250th episode early with me and other members from around the world on Saturday, November 22nd, at 7 pm.

That's right, we are throwing another listening party.

React to the episode with other members in the chat and more.

But for now, let's get on with the show.
Woo!
Pool noodles in the hot tub.
99 pool noodles.
Oh, there you are, Mindy.
What are you up to?
Oh, hey, Guy Razzi.
I'm just cooking up some of my famous pool noodle soup here in the hot tub.
Pool noodle soup?
Mindy, you can't eat pool noodles.
Not with that attitude, you can't.
Okay, well, Mindy, do you think that you might be done cooking soon?
Oh, it takes at least seven hours for the pool noodles to reach al dente.
We've got a camp to run, Mindy.
Is there any way I can help make this go a little faster?
Ah, well, you could crank up the heat on the hot tub over here.
Okay.
And then you can use this canoe paddle to help me stir the broth.
The broth?
Now sing with me, Guy Razzi.
98 pool noodles in the hot tub, 98 pool noodles...
You eat one now, pass it around.
98 pool noodles in the hot tub.
97 pool noodles in the hot tub.
97 pool noodles in the hot tub.
You pass one down.
Camp WeWow is an awesome place.
Physics, biology, and outer space.
Science explorers with our headquarters.
Oh, Dennis.
Here at Camp WeWow.
Okay, that's enough.
Hey, G4s.
All right, follow me.
Can't be wow.
Can't be wow.
Can't be wow.
Can't be wow.
Can't be wow.
Can't be wow.
Can't be wow.
Can't be wow.
WeWow, the invisible summer camp for science explorers everywhere.
It's music week inspired by our own Wow in the World episode, Drop the Beat and Cut the Cheese.
Today, we are going to be making some music of our own.
But before we begin, here's Dennis with a quick announcement about our upcoming Camp WeWow production Dennis the Musical.
Dennis the Musical?
Ahem.
Yes.
Thank you, Mindy.
Attention campers.
The production of Dennis the Musical is underway and I am in need of some things for the show.
Please listen closely to the following list of items that I require.
Dennis?
One fireproof suit, one cappuccino machine, a ukulele, Baby Yoda, all 20 volumes of the Oxford Dictionary and a hammer.
If you brought any of these items to camp, please drop them at the amphitheater this afternoon.
Dennis, over and out.
All right.
Thanks, Dennis.
Now, let's head over to the music room to make some noise.
You mean make some instruments, right?
Ah, potato tornado.
And while we're walking over, please listen up, as our camp mascot, the Wow Cow, shares a special message for the grownups back home.
Camp Wee Wow will be right back.

Campers, welcome to the Camp Wee-Wow Music Room, or as I like to call it, my home away from home.
Oh, wait, Mindy, do you play a musical instrument?
Does this answer your question, Guy Raz?
Uh, yes.
Yes, it does.
Since it's music week, Guy Raz and I are going to show you campers how to make your very own musical instrument using a bunch of junk I dragged out of the camp kitchen.
Okay, let's see what you've got here, Mindy.
Uh, my salad?
Yeah, I rescued it from the fridge.
A toaster stuffed with waffles?
Shh, that was me.
A potato masher?
Also works on mashing fingers.
And a chili pot full of piping hot chili?
Mm-mm-mm.
Now, while you were in the kitchen grabbing all of, uh, I went through my recycling station.
Recycling station?
Yeah, it's where I sort my papers from my plastics, my green glass from my brown glass, my biodegradables from non-biodegradables, and I have this generator powered by solar panels.
Okay, okay, so what did you find?
Let's see here.
I found some paper towel rolls, Uh, my recyclable dental floss and, uh, is this a mannequin head?
Oops, sorry.
That's mine, Guy Raz.
Okay, uh, we'll talk about that a little later, Mindy.
But for now, I think I may be able to create the world's most environmentally friendly harp if I just take this string of floss here and attach it to some paper towel rolls.
Like this.
And while you're working on that, Guy Raz, I'll take this chili pot, dump out the chili...
Like this, flip it over, and boom!
It's a chili pot drum!
Reggie, toss me those waffles so I can use them as drumsticks.
Thanks, Reg!
And a one, and a two, and a three, and a four!
Well, well, that's one way to do it.
Wow, someone call the Red Hot Chili Potters.
I think I just found their new drummer.
How's the harp sounding, Guy Raz?
Well, uh, let's test it out.
It actually sounds pretty good.
Ooh, can I give it a try?
Yeah, sure.
Huh, let me see if I remember how to do this.
Uh, here goes nothing.
Whoa, Mindy, where'd you learn how to do that?
I've been practicing for years on my string cheese.
Huh?
Hey there campers, Grandma G-Force here with a little survival tip for ya.
When you're out in the wilderness, you're gonna wanna always have a stepladder on your person.
That way, if you ever run into an animal that's bigger than you, you're just gonna pull up your stepladder high.
Climb on up aboard, Gonna.
Make it easier for you to wrestle the big ones.
Okay?
And if you're looking for more survival tips, you give me a holler.
I'm Grandma G-Force.
We had so much fun with you today, campers, but the fun doesn't stop here.
We want you to try making your own musical instruments.
Turn a plastic bottle into a pan flute or stretch a balloon over a cup to make a drum.
Or mix and match other items from your recycling bin to create a completely original musical instrument, entirely your own.
Get Tinkering Campers, and don't forget to send us photos and videos.
Grown-ups, you can send them to Tinkercast.com slash share.
And after you've made your own instrument, we want you to call us up and then play it for us over the phone.
Maybe it's your armpit, or a banana, or a can of dried beans.
Give us a call at 1-888-700.
Wow Wow, and tell us about your instrument and how you would play it.
