Welcome to a poetic episode of Inside the Mind of a Child Genius - the show where dyslexic adults make fun of children! In this episode, join 3 poetry experts and Theo as we learn what sadness smells like, what anxious people think about all the time, and what’s actually scary about zombies (we’re worried about their mental health). We will regale in the tales of Theo’s composer group that’s either Marxist or MAGA (he doesn’t know, he wasn’t paying attention), and how he almost won a poetry competition that’s either a really big deal or a complete scam.  Also in this episode: “My teacher actually insisted that I do this assignment.”, “We’ve never seen anyone bust up like this!”, “If I'm not the messiah, maybe I’m a famous author!”, “Your thoughts are useless at the day’s prime.”, Pikachu, Pokémon, Ash Ketchum, Donald Trump, Karl Marx, rage rooms, diamante poetry, clerihew poetry, Klondike bars, China, Mr. Overbite, North Carolina, Poe Center for Health Education, Michael Caine, Bruce Wayne, Batman, Eminem, Edgar Allan Poe, sleeper agents, and The Walking Dead.

In this episode we’ll test his masterful knowledge of space and relations - starting with a fictional list of dragons that Theo drew and described as a child genius. Our intelligent discussion will lead to many interesting topics that teach you how to: Inflate a small man with compressed air Steal sugary bread from an insect-man with 700 greedy children Become an irresistible passenger to your Driver’s Ed teacher Swipe a hand kiss from a matriarch And stay tuned for a handy #DeathHack that will blow your mind!

Welcome to the grand finale of Theo’s Fifth Grade Year in Review!

In this gripping episode of our true crime podcast, Theo’s unsettling no-teeth smile sparks a chilling conversation. Is he a psychopath or something? Turns out he isn’t, but join us as we explore questions like this and over 100 crimes - including crimes we’re committing while we record!  We delve into the bizarre concept of a mail hole, uncover the secrets of a man with a fake limp, and question Daniel’s motivation to hide while he does yard work.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to listen to us invent a new sport? Right, I didn’t think so, but you’re here now, so might as well! Let’s just say, things get pretty sticky (because of velcro, and magnetics, and stuff - nothing weird). While we were at it we also invented a new form of music - CPR Jazz - but you’ll need a professional basketball player, a dog, and a mini saxophone to pull it off. Of course, we also continue through Theo’s fifth grade review and today we learn that his school had a fight club, a bar, and an affinity for Chaucer.  Also in this episode: “That's jazz, baby - you miss 100% of the notes you don’t play.”, “He got my dad's name and I got my dad's tools name.”, “Harry only saved people for the house points.”, Charles Barkley, Charlie Parker, Goalball, Bitcoin, Catholicism, Mark Wahlberg, Walhburgers, Jesus, Harry Potter, Fight Club, Bing, Chaucer, and DARE.

The meaning of no recess is life that not fun. But this episode IS fun! We’re reading all about Theo’s masochistic, possibly Calvinist middle school which used gamified punishments and Schrodinger’s homework passes. We’re also giving you betting tips for the Super Bowl that already happened! Will the Nude Maids win? Can the Unicorns really beat the Dragons? Or will Peasant’s Academy rise to the top? Even though Daniel’s a time traveler, he’s not much help, since he’s recording this years after the NFL has disbanded. And remember, if you have any questions about alien vegetables, direct them to Neil Degrasse Tyson - just don’t expect a straight answer, because he’s drunk with power.
