Music is the universal language! But what in the world does it feel like to rock out in the New York subway? And how do bluegrass kids make magic together?

In this episode of Wild Interest, prepare to be dazzled by two amazing groups of kid musicians. New York's Retro Rebelles rock out in the subway, and the plucky Carolina bluegrass quartet Young Mountain Magic picks us a tune or two and talks about what it feels like to play together as a band.

But wait, there's more! Ever wonder about legendary creatures in the Himalayas? You'll brave the Himalayan peaks in search of the legendary Yeti in Cryptid Corner. Plus, toss back some root brewskis as Nichole and Evan get to the bottom of the barrel in an exciting root beer taste test!

This episode features our new segment "Grammartime," animal calls, Favorite Sound, an ancient riddle, jokes, and not one but two Grandparent Stories. It's wild!

Tune in now and explore the universal language that connects us all!
