  • What is inflation?
    Mar 30 2026

    Today we're resharing an episode from our archive that might feel more relevant with gas prices up. We're going to dig more into those gas prices in the new season of “Million Bazillion: (coming soon). But this is a good time to learn about something called "inflation." After traveling back in time to stock up on snacks, Bridget and Ryan get a chance to try to control runaway inflation … but their ideas don’t quite go as planned.

A very interesting & fun podcast for kids to learn everything about money throughout the podcasts. I stop it periodically to ask comprehension questions & clarify things if they don’t understand. Maybe ad a PDF worksheet reviewing?
