About this listen

Ten year old Maya and her dad, Jeremy, discuss major news events each week, hoping to inspire other families to discuss the big issues at their dinner tables, on their way to school or, frankly, whenever it works in their busy family lives.

We examine a major event, ask questions of each other and hope to find some answers... and raise more questions!

    Speaking with Citizens at the No Kings Rally!

    Maya and Dad went to the Boston No Kings Rally and so did... 150,000 others! (Our estimate on the show was WAY off!). On this show, we share our journey to the rally, our favorite signs and other observations and then the highlights of Maya's 32 interviews! (Don't worry - Maya only excerpted a few!)

    Trump’s Secretary: Hegseth’s Big Speech
    Oct 9 2025

    This week, Secretary of Defense… or should we say Secretary of War (!) Pete Hegseth, called 800 Generals into Washington to lecture them…. Why? What was his message? Why was he talking about beardos and hefty generals? We did a podcast on this and still don’t know why he did this, but maybe you can figure this out… on this week’s WNW with Maya and Dad!

    There is a portmanteau (word of the week!) out there that is on the verge of killing our democracy! And, on that note, welcome to season 3 of WNW with Maya and Dad. Today, we discuss the implications of Texas' redistricting, California's reaction and what this means for voters going forward! This episode is sponsored by waves and salamanders!
