Plant-based diets, explained (to kids)

July 30, 2022:

Today, Explained to Kids is back for a second season. In each episode of this Vox podcast, a group of friends takes a journey to the Island of Explained. Kids (and adults) come along to explore the magical island and meet its whimsical inhabitants, all while tackling some of the biggest questions in the world. This summer, we’ll answer questions about how to make the future better through the way we eat, care for our environment, listen to each other, and more.

In Today, Explained to Kids: Plant-based party, an invitation to a vegan party sends producers Kiarra and Izii to the Island, where a giant who once ate people explains why he switched to a plant-based diet — and why that diet might be beneficial for humans, too.
