A SharkEye in the sky; Paris’ Olympic hiccups; the parrot with a big bill; and the Starliner’s space camp is almost over.

from Squiz Kids · host Squiz Media

Your daily kids news podcast. Even the best plans have hiccups, as seen in the Olympic Village! Athletes complained about skimpy meals and less-than-comfy cardboard beds. But despite these quirks, Aussie swimmer Ariarne Titmus still snagged gold and silver medals. In California, sharks and beachgoers are sharing the waves! But don't worry, SharkEye, a cool drone system, keeps everyone safe by spotting sharks and alerting lifeguards. Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams are on an extended "space camp" aboard the International Space Station due to a tech glitch. They're helping out while waiting to return to Earth. A parrot caused quite a stir in 1983, delaying a student's graduation over an unpaid repair bill. This year, the university waived the debt, allowing the student to graduate with his son.
