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.
Join us as we dance along to our new songs.
React to the episode with other members in the chat and more.

It's going to be a November to remember.
But for now, let's get on with the show.
Woo!
Wee-wow on the weekend.
Wee-wow on the weekend.
Because this is what we do on the weekend.
Talking, laughing, me and Reggie.
Singing, laughing, and then we... Oh, wait.
No, I said laughing twice.
Whatever.
Wee-wow on the weekend.
Wee-wow on the weekend.
Wee-wow on the weekend.
Because this is what we do Welcome to Wee Wow on the Weekend.
I'm your host, Dennis.
And Reggie's here as my co-host.
Oh, that's a good question.
What is the difference between a co-host and a regular host?
I guess a regular host sits on a rolly chair like this one.
And a co-host sits on my couch like you're doing.
And the regular host tries to entertain the audience, while the co-host laughs at all my jokes, even when they're not funny, so that the audience thinks I'm funnier than I am.
Reggie, laughing at my jokes is not a hard job.
I'm hilarious.
Okay, fine.
Here's a joke I prepared for today.
Why did the ocean wave to the beach?
Nothing.
It just waved.
Oh, wait.
No.
That's not right.
Reggie, don't laugh.
I messed up my joke.
Okay, let's move on and read some reviewsies.
I'm reading reviewsies for me and for yousies.
We've got us some doozies, so let's read reviewsies.
All right, let's get the first reviewsie here.
This one's from username luthienrose1.
The title says, OMG, screaming emoji.
Oh, good scream, Reggie.
And the message says, I love Wee Wow on the weekend.
P.S., Reggie, what's your favorite flavor of ice cream?
And then there's a little ice cream emoji.
Well, Reggie, what's your favorite ice cream flavor?
What?
Blue?
Reggie, blue isn't a flavor.
Oh, whatever.
There's more here.
P.P.S., Dennis.
Do you like waffles?
Waffle emoji.
Oh yeah, Luthi and Rose 1.
I am a big fan of waffles.
But I find them very difficult to eat.
Because of all the little squares, Reggie.
Well, I like to fill every single waffle square up exactly halfway with syrup.
And then I put a tiny ploop of butter in the middle of each syrupy square.
A ploop, Reggie.
A ploop of butter.
Because that's the sound it makes.
Ploop.
Well, it depends on the waffle, but there's usually around 25 squares and it takes me 45 minutes to eat one waffle.
Next reviewsy.
Okay, this comment comes from SnakeMaster2.0.
Ew, snakes?
The title says, snakes.
And the message says, I want snake week.
What?
No Snake Week.
First you all wanted Turtle Week and now Snake Week?
What would Snake Week even be?
Just a week of us hanging out with snakes?
And what would we do with them?
Like pet them and name them and make them little hats?
Okay, suddenly I'm into this.
Go find us some snakes, Reggie.
Fine, go find snakes later then.
Next Reviewsy.
All right, this next Reviewsy comes from username...
The one link.
The title says, pretty good.
And the message says, Dennis, you brag way too much, but the podcast is good.
Three stars for you.
What?
I do not brag too much.
Just because I talk about how I have shiny hair and tons of fans and sing with the beauty of a thousand wind chimes, that's bragging.
Oh, whatever.
Let's see what else it says.
Five stars for Mindy and Guy Raz.
Oh, and I only get three?
Oh, and there's stars for you too, Reggie.
Looks like you get one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, 32 stars?
That's not fair.
Oh, you're right.
Thank you for the stars, The Lone Link.
And congratulations, Reggie.
You're a very popular beloved giant pigeon.
Thanks for all your reviews, these listeners.
Keep them coming.
If you leave a comment on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, I just might read it on WeWow on the weekend.
Five stars or more, please.
Reggie, I know it only goes to five stars, but I think if you click hard enough it'll give an extra star.
No, I did not just make that up.
Okay, I made that up.
Okay, okay, let's move on.
Actually, no, wait.
I have to use the bathroom.
I don't know.
Go to commercial or something.
Loud in the World will be right back. messages for you.

Okay, I'm back.
So, Reggie, today I thought we'd try something a little different.
Yeah, I was thinking, instead of an Inside Tinkercast Studios where we listen to one of our favorite Tinkercast podcasts, we should do a Crafter Noon.
Pancakes are for eating.
And rivers are for rafting.
And Broadway is for my one-man show.
But afternoons are for crafting.
Crafternoon.
Welcome to Crafternoon, everyone.
This is the part of the show where we spend the afternoon doing crafts together.
Oh, you're right.
It's not afternoon yet.
It's only 11.59 a.m.
Yeah, we better wait a second.
Waiting.
Waiting.
Reggie, no, don't touch anything yet.
It's not time.
Waiting.
Almost.
And okay, it's noon.
Welcome to Crafternoon, everyone.
Good question, Reggie.
Today's craft is finger painting.
Reggie!
Fingerpainting is not just for kids.
It's for people of any age with fingers.
Oh yeah, or wings.
Right, toes work too.
Tentacles?
Um, maybe?
Reggie, quit distracting me with your questions.
We're getting off track and I need to get out my big tub of art supplies.
There we go.
Okay, got some fingerpaint, got some paper.
Let's get Finger painting.
What do you mean, what am I doing?
I'm taping bananas to my fingers.
Because, Reggie, I don't want to touch finger paint with my fingers.
Because it feels cold and wet and oogie.
And so I'm going to tape bananas to my fingers and use those to touch the paint instead.
Exactly.
They're like big yellow fingers.
Oh, right.
I guess we're banana finger painting then.
Yeah. brushes.
Reggie, that would just be normal painting.
No, this is better.
Trust me.
Okay, there we go.
Just like that.
Okay.
Ready?
Oh, right.
I forgot to open the finger paint.
Um, little help?
Thank you, Reggie.
Okay, everyone.
Let's get banana finger painting.
Ah, this is So relaxing.
Are you relaxed, Reggie?
You're not?
Well, are you relaxed now?
Fine.
Let me know when you're relaxed.
Sheesh.
Oh, what are you painting, Reggie?
Oh, no, wait.
Don't tell me.
Let me guess.
Is it a giraffe?
No.
OK.
Is it a sunset?
No.
OK.
Is it a cheeseburger?
I don't know, then.
What is it?
Reggie, a postmodern examination of geometric negative space?
What does that even mean?
Oh, I see.
Very sophisticated.
Well, I'm making a banana finger painting of me riding a horse in space eating a bowl of fruit.
Because, Reggie, it's not art unless there's a bowl of fruit in it.
Speaking of fruit, my banana fingers are starting to mush up a little bit. all over my hands.
Now there's finger paint on the banana mush.
Reggie, no, no, no, no, no.
Don't help me.
You have paint on your feathers.
Ah, Reggie.
Now my banana mush paint is covered in Reggie feather paint.
Yes, I've been banana-ed and painted and feathered, and I want to go home.
All right, this is my home.
Perfect.
Where are my wet wipes?
Thank you, Reggie.
Just wipe this up here.
Okay, now while I clean myself off, you go hang the paintings up in the art gallery.
The art gallery, Reggie, over here on this wall.
Okay, good.
Now come back here and let's observe our art.
Let me present to you, Reggie, my banana finger painting entitled Dennis and His Space Horse.
The horse's name is Star Princess.
What's your feather painting called?
It's just called Reggie's Art.
Reggie, no, that's boring.
Well, let me help you.
Let's call it The Essence of Feather Fingers.
Fine, The Essence of Feather Fingers and Geometric Negative Whatever You Said.
Okay, I think that's enough art for one day.
Let's wrap this up.
Thank you to all our listeners out there for tuning in to WeWow on the weekend.

Okay, want to do the goodbye song?
That's the end of the show.
I have to go throw away all these mushy bananas.
But I'll do another show tomorrow.
But for now, it's the end of the show.
