What do games, questions and answers, and shoes made of corn have in common? This episode of WeWow, the bonkerballs variety show for kids and families from the creators of Wow in the World, has all of that and more. Dennis and Reggie are back with another weekend full of laughs, listener love, and a corny materials-science encore episode that'll have the whole family talking all over again. Whether you're a longtime Wowzer or just tuning in, WeWow on the Weekend is the kind of family variety podcast that makes every car ride, breakfast table, and slow Saturday morning a little more wow-worthy.

This week, Dennis and Reggie answer listeners' questions, play some of their favorite games, and discuss what it means to be a bird! And if that's not enough, WeWow on the Weekend wraps up with a fan-favorite encore of "Corn Your Toes" from Wow in the World – a corn-tastic episode about environmentally-friendly shoes made out of corn – packed with big ideas, bigger laughs, and the kind of curiosity that makes the whole family lean in.

"Corn Your Toes" originally aired on May 22nd, 2017, and explores how compostable shoes made out of corn might help reduce landfill waste! Dennis and Reggie revisit all the wow-worthy moments and bring their signature bonkerballs energy to a topic that's equal parts wild, important, and totally fascinating.
