Summary

We ask and answer some big questions on today’s episode. We’re encouraged to reach out to the people around us and ask how they’re going for R U OK day. We also ask ‘why is it that famous authors are writing books that might never be read by anyone alive today?’ And ‘how can we save a weird, waddley owl-parrot from extinction’? You’ll have to listen to find out! Questions 1.Do you have to wait until R U OK day to check on someone? 2.Where will they get the paper to print these books in 100 years? 3.How often does a kakapo have baby chicks? Answers 1.Nope, you can reach out to your friends whenever you think is right. 2.From special trees planted nearby. 3.About once every 3-5 years. News Noodler – a question to chat about with the people around you. Why do you think artists and authors are making things that they can’t share with anyone alive today?
