  • It's All Bonobo to Me: How to Talk Like an Ape!
    Apr 27 2026

    Did you know bonobos have their very own way of talking to each other? In this Wow in the World episode, Mindy is using a new language learning app to try and help her communicate better with her pen-pal. The only issue is, her pen pal is an ape! From playful gestures to powerful vocalizations, bonobos use a language all their own to express feelings, build relationships, and keep their families connected. This jaw-dropping episode dives into the science of how bonobos communicate, why it matters for scientists, and what kids can learn about the importance of empathy, teamwork, and listening. Originally aired 9/15/25.
