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.
Eastern.
That's right, we are throwing another listening party.
Join us as we dance along to our new songs.
React to the episode with other members in the chat and more.
Grownups.
If you want your wowzer to join this members-only listening party, you can sign up to become a member today at Tinkercastcom.

Slash wow.
That's it.
It's going to be a November to remember.
But for now, let's get on with the show.
Woo!
Actually, it looks kind of slimy.
Like I said, it's great.
Uh, I think I'll stay on shore for now.
You've been in there for a long time, Mindy.
Aren't your fingers getting pruney?
So pruney that Grandma G-Force can eat them for breakfast, but it's all part of the training.
Training?
What training?
Astronaut training, Guy Raz.
Oh, because going underwater is how astronauts train to move in the zero gravity of space.
Yeah, NASA even has this giant swimming pool called the Neutral Buoyancy Lab.
Too bad I got banned from bringing pool noodles in it.
Well... But luckily, I've got this slimy lake to practice in.
Are you sure you don't want to train with me?
Anything for science, right?
Anything for science, Kairos.
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.
And welcome back to Camp WeWow, the invisible summer camp for science explorers everywhere.
With your camp counselors, Mindy.
And Guy Raz.
And we've got another activity-filled day of Space Week.
Inspired by our Wow in the World episode, Hey Mars, Put a Ring on It.
Today, we've got a galactic game for you.
But first, Dennis has some suggestions from the suggestion box.
All right, opening the box here.
Wow, so many suggestions, let's see.
We'll start with this one.
It says i suggest that all campers starting immediately refer to dennis as lord of the dance.
Oh, excellent idea.
Whoever came up with that one?
All right.
Next here this one says i suggest that all campfire stories, songs and skits be exclusively performed by Dennis.
Really?
A.K.A.
Lord of the Dance, because he is so interesting and funny and talented.
Dennis?
Wow.
I accept.
Okay, let's see here.
Oh, how about this one?
This camp should be renamed Camp Dennis.
Dennis?
Exactly.
Come on.
Camp Dennis has an excellent ring to it.
Thanks, everyone, for all your great suggestions.
That will be all.
Uh, it kind of sounds like Dennis wrote all those suggestions, but we'll take them under consideration.
We're going to head on over to the game room, but first our camp mascot, the Wow Cow, has a special message for your grown-ups.
Boo!
Camp Wee Wow will be right back.

Ready for today's activity?
We are going to play Wow'd You Rather.
We're going to give you two options and you have to pick which one you'd rather do and why.
Mindy, what's the first question?
Okay, okay.
Wow'd You Rather visit the asteroid belt and dodge over a million asteroids, or visit Jupiter's moon Io, which is one of the most volcanically active active volcanoes in the whole solar system?
Hmm, I think I'd rather visit the asteroid belt.
It would be like a real-life version of my favorite arcade game.
Ooh, good pick.
Oh, oh, I've got one.
Would you rather live on Venus, where the average temperature is 880 degrees Fahrenheit, or would you rather live on Neptune, where it's about negative 330 degrees Fahrenheit?
OK, so crazy hot or crazy cold?
I'm going to go with hot, hot Venus.
And I'd bring this bag of frozen tater tots so I can heat them up.
Do you always walk around with a bag of frozen tater tots in your pocket?
Last one.
Would you rather hang out on a planet with seven enormous rings Or spend the day on a planet with 82 amazing moons?
A trick question, I see.
Because the planet Saturn has seven rings and 82 moons.
Okay, okay, that was a trick question.
But I'm really asking, would you like to go to Saturn?
Because Grandma G-Force is working on a rocket ship.
Should be ready soon.
Just gotta run a few more tests.
Now, if I push this button here... Are the rockets supposed to explode like that?
Ah, that's just the windshield wipers.
See you on the launch pad.
Ooh, the launch pad.
Uh...
Welcome everyone to the Camp Wee Well Comedy Club.
Coming up next to the stage is the Wow Cow.
Let's hear it for the Wow Cow.
Okay, let's see.
Where's the applause button?
Oh, nope, wrong button.
Not that one.
There we go.
Okay, take it away, Wow Cow.
Hello there, campers.
It's Camp Wee Well's official mascot. because, well, I am one.
I know, I know, but enough about the star in front of you.
Let's talk about the stars above you.
Did you know that there are about 300 billion stars in the Milky Way galaxy alone?
300 billion!
That's almost as many followers as they have on Zoo Zoom.
Ew, what's that smell?
Oh, is that me?
All right, I got a blast.
Need to get this cow costume to the cleaners again.
I'm spending a fortune on dry cleaning.
I'll see you around, campers.
Oh, and don't forget to pick up your copy of my latest memoir, Confessions of a Kind of Cow, on your way out.
Wow cow, ouch.
And don't forget to howl at the moon.
All right, see you guys.
Campers, thanks for joining us today at Camp WeWow.
We hope you had as much fun playing Wow'd You Rather as we did.
Now it's your turn to keep the fun going by coming up with your own space-themed Wow'd You Rather questions?
You can make the questions fun things like being the first person to set foot on Neptune.
Or you can make them fun.
And Colin to tell us where you would go if you could visit any place in the galaxy.
Our number is 1-888-7-WOW-WOW.
Your call could be featured during tomorrow's Campfire Story Circle.
We'll see you tomorrow for our last day of Camp WeWow Space Week.
Until then, who wows?
We wow!
