    Campaign for Smologies Merch
    My 9 year old LOVES this podcast, she listens to it before school while sheโ€™s eating breakfast- such a fun way to get the brain moving! I just bought a youth Ologies t-shirt to give her as a birthday gift next month but we really wish there was SMOLOGIES merch!! We also loved learning with Alie on Brain Child- every now and then kiddo still reminds me that my kitchen sponge is really gross ๐Ÿ˜‚ Thanks for having fun with science with us!

    PHENOMENAL
    I love ologies, but smologies rock too! I love to listen while Iโ€™m showering or trying to do a quick task. The ologists are so down to earth and informative. Host Alie Ward is humorous and keeps my attention. 10/10 would recommend (& I do to anyone who will listen)

    I absolutely love Smologies! Relaxing in bed with Alie Wardโ€™s calming voice yet funny words is now a daily need. Thank you so much, Alie & guests, for donating your time to loving listeners who get giddy every new episode. Sincerely, Just a 10 yr old who loves ๐ŸŒ

    Preschooler Science Fan Approved
    My four-year-old budding scientist happily endured our 2-hour holiday roadtrip with episodes of Smallogies. Bonus: the parental units also enjoyed the two hour drive. He loved the snails and slugs, oceans and hagfish episodes. The only critique: โ€œIs there a cat episode Mom? Why not?!?โ€
  • CarolineRuby
    Thank You So Much Alie Ward! โค๏ธ
    This is hands down the best podcast ever
  • Gram-Lin
    Thank you Alie Ward!
    Science teacher and granny hereโ€” Iโ€™m so thrilled I can now share these clean and shorter versions with my 4 grand-girls. Many thanks for a great podcast!

    Happier rides to school
    Our car rides to school are much improved thanks to smologies! Having it in its own podcast makes it much easier to navigate and find the kid episodes while I am running to the car. Happy to have an alternative to sibling bickering and requests for video game theme music!! Kids faves are birds, dinosaurs and space junk! They even yell for me to pause when they get out at pick up line. That is a huge compliment from 9 year olds! Thanks for these Alie and team ! Melissa (Long time fan of the OG ologies )
  • Yolanda Vega with Win4
    Perfect show
    My 6 year old just asked me to pause the episode so he could say, โ€œShe (Alie) can make ANYTHING sound fun! Maybe she can do an episode about something I donโ€™t like, and Iโ€™ll start to think itโ€™s cool!โ€ So, maybe an episode about broccoli? Thank you for these kid-friendly episodes!
  • Cleorโœจ๐Ÿชป
    I love this podcast!
    It is perfect in my option for my age itโ€™s not to much for a younger audience! But at the same time it works for us tweens and early teens who arenโ€™t ready for adult content. Thanks for the podcast! -Donut300

  • BoniDutch
    Perfect for car rides with lil ears!
    Funny? Check! Silly? Always. Informative? Oh baby! Add this great small pod to your list of faves. Ologies for adults? Smologies for the Smols.
  • Thejenjenjen
    Perfectly sized
    The first episode my kiddo was skeptical, but now he keeps asking for more. Listening to Smologies is now part of our bedtime routine. We read our books, turn out the lights and listen to an episode. I even hear them singing along to theme.
  • Marg111111111
    Perfect podcast for tweens!
    Thank you so much for putting this together, Alie & team! My kids are 11 & 13 and too old for most kidsโ€™ podcast but not ready for adult content. Smologies is absolutely perfect for this age group and has sparked so many car ride conversations about toads, fireflies, ocean plastic, and more. I love that they opportunity to meet, laugh, and learn with so many smart and interesting ologists from the backseat of our car. Thank you so much to everyone who makes it happen!
  • Abbyloudaisy
    Perfectly smol!
    Smologies takes the magic of Ologies and miniaturizes it into bingeable sized, kid friendly episodes that I am thoroughly enjoying! And then go listen to the full sized Ologies just for more info. This makes my science-nerd, biology-geek heart so happy!

    I love smologies. This new podcast is great because now I donโ€™t have to search for the smologies in ologies. Also, I love Ali and her whole podcast. Thank you

    *happy dance*
    Finally, a show I can share with my Catholic grandma.
  • Bcl37
    First and second grader approved !
    My first and second grader LOVE these, your episode about pelicans was 10/10. They were obsessed, and talk about pelican purses and 6 foot wing spans anytime someone brings up birds. Thank you for making learning so enjoyable, and creating this wonderful community of small-oologist!
  • kick add farmgirl
    Alie is a rockstar!
    Thanks Alie for taking time, energy and your love of all things ology to make this kid friend pod! The world is a better place with you on it! โ™ฅ๏ธ
  • Ralywitte
    So exciting!!!
    I love all of the ologies episodes. I have told so many of my friends with kids about smologies and Iโ€™m super excited to see them get their own feed! Allie your podcast is a true joy to listen to and I will be a forever listener! Is there an ologies episode on Orcas yet? Because if not please do one soon!!
  • #1OlogiesFAN
    Omg
    I never thought you would make a smoligeies podcast on its own! I'm so glad I could never find the smoliges but now I can. I'm a kid and I listen to both but I love the smoligeies for short rides! Thanks! I love your podcast!
  • Kelci88
    Thank you Allie!
    Thank you for making this itโ€™s own podcast! It makes science so fun for my kids!
  • BulldogGK
    Amazing!
    Finally Alie read my mind and made this so I can share it with my kids! My favorite podcast can now be my kids favorite podcast!

    OMG another opportunity to listen to the dulcet tones of Alie Ward in conversation with incredible guests while learning new things during my commute to/from work? Uh yes please. Thank you!
  • VermontPapa
    This show is fire
    Itโ€™s the best kid friendly science podcast ever. My favorite show for listening with my kid.
  • ClaireRoseWrites
    AH, it has itโ€™s own show page!
    Alie, I am so thrilled for you and the Ologies/Smologies team. I have been a long time listener of Ologies and my kids love the Smologies episodes but youโ€™re right, it was just a *pinch* annoying to scroll through the regular Ologies page to find them quickly. Thanks for removing the pinch and adding some darling show art to a brand new page. My kids and I are jumping up and down for you and for science. 10/10, recommending to everyone I know.
  • Scary_Beary
    So excited this is a thing!
    Iโ€™ve been sending Ologies episodes to friends for a long time, now I can share Smologies with my niblings and my friends with kids. Thanks, Alie!
  • MeghRn
    Finally!
    What an exciting development. My 5 year old has reached the age of questions and Ologies helps keep his little brain motor running while on road trips, the way to school, etc. He is going to be so thrilled that there are now Smologies by Alie made just for kids like him!!
  • cmu204
    YAY!
    I started following Ologies because I wanted something nerdy and clever that my kiddo and I could enjoy together. Iโ€™m so glad that weโ€™ll have all the kid-friendly episodes all in once place!
  • SadieParris
    Perfect n Pint sized
    The magnificent Alie Ward strikes again!
  • TSuliโ€ฆ
    Fun
    Itโ€™s better for listening around my little brother ๐Ÿ™‚
  • Gfsfvhjgdvgxf
    The best
    I adore ologies. Long form, and lots of โ€œstupid questionsโ€. But definitely a bit โ€œroughโ€ to share with my kiddos. Smologies is amazing. Iโ€™m glad my kids can experience Alieโ€™s style.
  • J. Eisen
    So excited
    Iโ€™m so excited for designated Smologies episodes. As a mom and a science teacher, I think that this being its own kid friendly podcast is so great! I canโ€™t wait to listen in the car and the classroom :)
  • twigz27
    Yayyyyyy!!!
    Iโ€™m so excited! This makes Smologies easier to share with my students!!!
  • pyroforum
    Thank you
