New kids podcast demystifies puberty with help from experts and teens who've been through it

Puberty is something everyone goes through in life. But it is an uncomfortable topic to talk about for many. A new podcast is putting puberty front and center of the conversation. Presented by Brains On Universe, the podcast is simply titled “Puberty (The Podcast).” It’s designed for kids ages 7-12 and is also a resource for parents helping their kids navigate their changing bodies and brains. The show’s host and executive producer, Molly Bloom, joined MPR News host Nina Moini to talk about it.
