This is a children's comedy podcast episode featuring DJ Squirm-a-Lot, a worm DJ character, who helps his nephew Nephworm overcome anxiety about returning to school by inventing a laugh-track device to make his jokes seem funnier to classmates.

Insights
- Social proof and peer validation are powerful tools for overcoming social anxiety, even when artificially created—the laugh box demonstrates how perceived consensus can influence behavior
- Children's content can address meaningful emotional challenges like fitting in and self-doubt through humor and storytelling rather than direct instruction
- User-generated content from children (song submissions) creates authentic engagement and gives young creators a platform, building loyalty and community participation
- Back-to-school anxiety centers on social acceptance and peer perception rather than academic concerns, suggesting emotional support is as important as educational preparation
Trends
Children's media increasingly addresses mental health and emotional resilience through character-driven narratives and relatable scenariosUser-generated content from child creators is becoming a core engagement strategy in children's entertainment, replacing purely professional productionPodcast sponsorships targeting families emphasize values-driven messaging (sustainability, inclusivity, comfort) alongside product benefitsBack-to-school content extends beyond academics to social-emotional learning, anxiety management, and identity acceptanceHumor-based coping mechanisms for childhood social anxiety are normalized in mainstream children's entertainment

Coming up right after a few words for the grownups! What up, Squirmy Wormies? It's ya worm! DJ Squirm a lot! The world's greatest DJ who also happens to be a worm. Hiya! And well, if you can just hold on a second, I was just about to hear my nephew tell me a joke. Say hi to everyone nephew! Hi everyone! And my wormies, what you need to know is that Nephworm is an incredible comedian! Aw, Shucks! You are! Your jokes were the soundtrack to my summer Nephworm! One after the other, you keep coming and keep supplying the laughs! Wow, I do consider myself a bit of a comedy nerd, I must admit! And it shows in your jokes! They're funny, but they're also sophisticated and smart! Now you're making me blush, Unky Squirm a lot! Well, you're already pink so it's not much of a difference, honestly! Good point! Now, how about that joke? Okay, okay, here goes! Why did the worm cross the road? I don't know, why? To get to the other soil! Oh, oh, soil! Like dirt! It's in a side! Soil! Because worms love dirt! Right? Incredible! Nephworm, you did it again! Thanks, Unky Squirm a lot! Wait a second, Nephworm! You just told an all-star, top-tier, high-quality joke! And I laughed so hard the dirt squirted out my nose! Why do you look so sad all of a sudden? Well, you know how I'm about to go back to school! You bet I do! I'm nervous! You don't have anything to be nervous about, Nephworm! School is great! You're gonna have a great worm teacher! Every day I'll pack you your lunchbox full of moist dirty dirt! It's gonna be great! I'm not nervous about any of that! Then what are you nervous about? I'm nervous no one will laugh at my jokes! W-w-w-what? I've been working on my jokes all summer so that I could come back to school and really wow everyone! Of course you're going to wow them! You're a great comedian! You don't understand, Unky Squirm a lot! All the other worms at school act like they're so cool! They don't want to laugh at my jokes even if they're funny! Really? Really! They think weird things they see on the internet are funny, not jokes! You know, I really don't understand today's youth. Everything's all mean this, mean that, I don't even know what a meme is! Meme either! What happened to good old comedy joke-joking? It's a thing of the past! I guess no one is ever going to laugh at my jokes. If I'm I can't bear to see you this way. I'm going to find a way to make all your classmates laugh at your jokes if it's the last thing this worm does! You don't have to do that Unky Squirm a lot. Oh yes I do!

Well, they went Marshmallows, marshmallows That is what they want We want Marshmallows Marshmallows That is what they want from us Marshmallows, marshmallows That is what they want We want Marshmallows, marshmallows That is what they want from us I managed to get away And to my school, I made my escape I got to my classroom And all my friends were there But instead of class, they were having a blast In the middle of a paper bowl When suddenly, the aliens arrived And they just started diving for those paper balls Because they were all small in bite But soon the aliens noticed that The paper was not gooey trees Maybe space weird And before I could know it The aliens refocused And again started attacking me And they went Marshmallows, marshmallows That is what they want We want Marshmallows, marshmallows That is what they want from us Marshmallows, marshmallows That is what they want We want Marshmallows, marshmallows That is what they want from us In every night Things were so out of hand All these marshmallows demand So I ran home from school To ask my mom what to do When I got there Mom was at the stove, she said I'm making you your favorite Marshmallow bread, oh no And just like clockwork, the aliens came And knocked her over, overwhelmed by The smell of the bread What do you want from me? Let us have some too They cried Uh, okay They ate my marshmallow bread So I turned to them and I said Finally satisfied It was a little bit of a failure I'm not gonna do it again No! So I went to my backyard To ease my worry in mind I took a breath to do what I do best And I started to juggle But I really did not think it through Cause my juggling balls looked like Marshmallows too and then before I knew I was once again in trouble I finally had enough So I hashed up a brilliant plan And then back into my house Grab some marshmallows and pouts And brought them back to where it all began Do you want marshmallows? So I got a bag of Marshmallows And I jumped Totally pumped When I was about to win As the ship floated high into the sky I hope I never see them again Whoa, what a spike that volleyball Andrew Thanks, you know I can't believe that whole Alien invasion thing was a week ago Yeah, it's a good thing you got rid of them too Because honestly, this volleyball does look like A giant marshmallow Haha, you're right Marshmallows, marshmallows That is what we want Taking marshmallows, marshmallows This time, we're holding a chance Marshmallows, marshmallows That is what we want Taking marshmallows, marshmallows We can't look back Alright, aliens You want marshmallows so badly?

All of the rainbow cars. All of the rainbow cars. All of the rainbow cars. All of the rainbow cars. Dance. What up, squirmy-wormies? It's the story of Pirates Back to School Mixtape, and I'm your host, DJ Squirmalot. That was All Rainbow Cars by a four-year-old in New York named Jean. All right, Unky DJ Squirmalot. Enough's enough. Tell me how that little box with the button is going to help me with my problem. You mean this box that does this when I press the button? Press. Yes, that one. Let me just give you a demonstration. Say a word. A word? Yes, any word. Um, pickle. See, it's got a laugh. Try another one. Um, paragraph. See? But paragraph isn't even an inherently funny word like pickle is. Don't you get it, Neth Lorm? The point is, it doesn't matter if it's funny. I thought being funny was the whole point. Okay, listen. When I was first starting out as a laptop DJ a long, long time ago, do you think from the very beginning that my audience members would literally faint at the sight of me smashing a space bar? They didn't? No, they didn't. No one cared. They just stood there staring at me. They thought I was just hitting the space bar like any old typist would do. They didn't realize they were witnessing something revolutionary. Huh. I never realized that you weren't super famous right from the start. It's a time, Neth Lorm. But do you know how I turn things around? How? I had dancers to dance in the crowd so that everyone would see them and think, hey, maybe I should be dancing too. And they did. And soon everyone was dancing. Isn't that some kind of creative fraud? Of course not, Neth Lorm. I was just starting the party. Sometimes people can be afraid to let it all out, to dance, to laugh. Unless they know they aren't alone. I think I get it now. When I use this box, all my friends at school will laugh because they'll think somebody's already laughing. Precisely. Oh, hey, G.J. Scormulant. Hey, Neth Lorm. Hi, Lee. Hello, Lee. What are you guys up to? Neth Lorm. This is the perfect opportunity to try out the box, tell a joke, and just to be sure, make it unfunny. Okay, here goes. Hey, Lee. What's a worm's favorite day? Uh, I don't know. What? Earth Day. Oh. Now press the button. Here goes nothing. Oh, was that a joke? Oh, I think I get it. It must be funny because some phantom I can't see is laughing as well. Earth Day. Because worms like the earth. Of course that would be their favorite day. Amazing joke, Neth Worm. Thanks, Lee. And thank you, Uncle D.J. Scormulant, for saving the school year. My pleasure. Now while we wait for the frankly horrific sound of Lee laughing to stop, how about we play you, listeners, another hot track. From Oliver, a four-year-old in the UK is a story that I think we can all agree is no laughing matter. President Worm. Sheila, did you find parking? No, I didn't. Good afternoon. Good afternoon and welcome to the Hall of Presidential Fame, located off of beautiful exit 12 in Pella, Iowa. Pella, it's in Iowa. Yes, it is. Whether you're always thinking about Lincoln, a James Buchan fan. Or if you're here because you saw Hamilton, the museum has something for you. We take you on a tour of each president's life. It's like a Wikipedia entry, but with props and wigs. Oh, fun. Now shall we start with the Woodrow Wilson wing? Sure, that's okay. Tough crowd. Perhaps the Hall of Benjamin Harrison. I really don't know if I use that. Okay, oh, fine. Why are we even fooling ourselves? We all know which president you're here to learn about. The Potus with the mostest. President Worm. Let's get to the story about that Inferna great who wins debates. The Anasic who's never basic. The night plumber in chief who campaigned on tax relief. Take it away. Come on. One, two, three. There was a worm called Worm. My fellow Americans, I am. Oh, yeah. His dreams were big, his goals were firm. These dreams I can't confirm. He wanted to be president. On that goal, I was in test. So up to Washington, he went. Okay, here we go. And he crawled, and he wriggled, wriggled. Crawled, and he wriggled, and he wriggled. Crawled, and he wriggled, wriggled. He came across a river wide. Got a kid to the other side. He watched the end and flow of time. This will be a wild ride. Worm knew he had to get across. I've come too far to claim a lot. To reach his goal to be the boss. And here we go. And he swam, and he wriggled, wriggled. Swam, and he wriggled, and he wriggled. Swam, and he wriggled, wriggled. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Over mountains, oh, so high. Kids give up. I gotta try. He climbed his cramble to get by. Don't look down. Just keep your stride. And as he spied the way I saw. Little farther, little more. Worm was stopped. By me, the ori. A meteor. This is... Unexpected. And of course, what happens next is the stuff of Hall of President's legend. Do you dig? Yes, I do. Because President Worm certainly did. Oh, that's fantastic. No, no, he literally tried to dig under the meteor. Oh, he later staked it. Woo! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. That's no good. I can't dig underneath it. The dirt is too hot. I can't get under it. Let's try to get over it. Yeah! Oh, no! It's too slippery. That's the meteor wrong way to get over this meteor right. Come on, Worm. The greatest leaders are flexible, which I am. No bones. How can you adapt to this situation? Oh, my goodness. A wing is growing out of my back and it... Ah, hurts a little. No change without struggle. Yeah, here comes the next one. The thing worse than the first. Isn't that what they say about the second term too? Ha, ha, ha, ha. Ah! Wow! I have wings! I'm my own Air Force One. Now, time to fly Worm. Fly yourself to that White House door! So he moved. And he wriggled, wriggled. And he wriggled, and he wriggled. And he wriggled, wriggled. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Hello, Americans. As your leader, I promise to be flexible, to go and grow into great lengths for each and every American to never get hooked by needless distractions and to play a small but vital role to help the garden of humanity flourish. Ladies and gentlemen, the first flying leader. And he wriggled, and he wriggled. President Worm. The end. Ha, ha, ha, ha. Oh, ha, ha. Uh, Uncle DJ's Worm a lot. Lee is still laughing. Hmm, perhaps my invention worked too well. I'm going to call a doctor. And we'll be right back with more hot tracks after these quick words for the grown-ups. Hey, grown-ups.

And now, let's keep the party going with a tune from 14-year-old Jonah in Utah. Here's The Wizard Who Could Just Go Poof. Once upon a time, in a faraway land, there lived a wizard who was doing the best that he can. I spent my days learning magic at the wizard's school. But it was tragic, because this wizard was so uncool. Hey! Like I was saying, this dude was quite lame. Well, other wizards at his school have some cool tight names. Like Morris and the Grace. Or Inferny and the Fiery. My name is Erlen. Yeah, that really don't inspire me. And his wand, which of course is a source of one sorcery, couldn't cast correctly so an outcast he was forced to be. Well, my peers' wands are powerful. Mine is a loof. No matter which spells he would cast, it only went poof. Poof, poof, poof, poof, poof, poof. It only went poof. Kids in class cackled, they thought Erlen the Goof. And I feel that sad, because my wand only goes poof. Poof, poof, poof, poof, poof, poof. It only goes poof. But then one day, a dragon came around. Bring me golden food, or your whole town is going down. Bring on the wizards, the knights and the rest. I am the best, and you'll never guess my one weakness. They lined up to stop him. It was wizard after wizard. I'm Morris and the Grace, and now the stomach of a lizard. I'm Inferny and the Fiery. I'll set you aflame. And I'm Erlen. Don't worry about him, he's super lame. They all tried but failed, and flailed, forced to fold. The dragon he grew bolder started taking their gold. I am unstoppable. Ha ha ha ha, bulletproof. Even when Erlen got his wand and made it go poof. Poof, poof, poof, poof, poof, poof, poof. He made it go poof. Even the dragon left a hilarious poof. You'll never be a wizard if his wand can only go poof. Poof, poof, poof, poof, poof, poof. It all got gold. But then what happened next was a curious thing. The dragon's face changed to a frown from a grin. There's a stress in my chest, like I messed up a test, plus I'm depressed. The poof is his one weakness. Yes! He roared and roared, then he soared always forever. Would you see him again? How about never? He started growing his fame. People know in his name, they put an M at the top, and he would never be the same. You see the L that they added? Well, it stands for magic, and now I'm called Merlin. And that name is fantastic! Give it up for the great boy, y'all. Raise the roof, Merlin the wizard who can now do way more than go. Poof, poof, poof, poof, poof, poof, poof. Do way more than poof, now it's used as a mage or beyond to reproof. But I was once the wizard who could just go poof. Poof, poof, poof, poof, poof. I once only could just go poof. Welcome back to the story, Pirates. Back to school, mixtape. I'm your host, DJ Squirmalot. This next song is by Annabelle, an 11-year-old from the UK, and it's called The Little Man Who Powers Your Washing Machine. Until one day, humankind birthed unto us an invention that was destined to change the face of hygiene forever. The Washing Machine. It's incredible what could it be? I like the little doors. Oh, my, you're true. That's great. I admire its boxy shape. But what is this thing for? Well, you put it in your dirty clothes, and then you turn it on, and it gets your clothes all wet, and that's it. Oh, all right. I kind of hoped it would help us clean these dirty clothes. Haven't figured that part out yet. Maybe I could help. Hey, everybody, what's going on? There's something that you need to know. Well, well, well, what? Do you remember that Olympian who won every single race three times in a row? We do. Well, his name was Little Man, and that Little Man was me. That's a familiar. And I've got an idea that'll make our clothes a little less dirty. You see, I noticed the inside of this Washing Machine is wheel shaped, just like Jeffrey's wheel. Who's Jeffrey? My hamster. Gonna treat this washer like a hamster wheel Running just as fast as I can. Sing it. Spin it up, scrub it up, wash it up, Little Man. He's agitated, all your shirts Your cargo pants and your denim skirts Your socks are getting all so clean I think I fixed this Washing Machine Washing Machine Little Man, time to come on out What are you waiting for? Well, well, well, what? Okay, everyone, here I come I'll just open up this door I said open up this door This door Door? It's stuck. Well, I guess I'll just stay inside Until the end of time I'm the little man who powers your Washing Machine And I live to fight your grease and grime We're on a bat, you'd spend your life Inside this metal can So put your Washing Machine on With very little clothes in it And wait for it to spin very fast In the back of the Washing Machine You may see that little man What does he eat? Nobody knows When does he sleep? Nobody knows Where does he pee? Nobody knows But I'm really good at watching your clothes Yes, he's really good at washing your clothes That's right So next time you turn your washer on Remember how my story began Spin it up, scrub it up, wash it up Leave it up, love it up, love it up Spin it up, scrub it up, wash it up Little man Class, we have a quick announcement Tomorrow is our rhyming test The last test of the marking period So put away your textbooks and warm up your vocal cords We're about to do a quick review Okay, class, we've got to practice for our rhyming test Look at your structure, Cadence Pace here to judge who rhymes the best We'll start with our reigning champ Who's made a stamp with command of pros Michael Kitson, a big kid with the fire flows I'm the best rhymer out I'm off the cuff with a never stuck With a don't need to ride it out My brain does all the work I'm all assertive with it, I'm a gifted child I'm like the hottest Chipotle sauce The rest of you are so mild Challenge me, you wildin' All I rhyme, you smilein' I don't shine that I don't take kindly To the ones that try me, no, no Please remind me who holds the title Is it Robbie, Robbie, no, no It's me the big kid Should I save the whiskey best in the business?
