The Adventures of Power Dog in Dogland! is an incredible podcast that has captivated both me and my daughter. We are constantly on the edge of our seats, eagerly awaiting the next episode to see where the wild rides will take us. It has become a favorite activity for us to listen together, and it's brought us so much joy. I can't thank the creators enough for providing such entertaining content.
One of the best aspects of this podcast is its family-friendly nature. It's refreshing to find a show that I can feel comfortable letting my eight-year-old daughter listen to on her own. The storytelling is charming and imaginative, keeping us both engaged throughout each episode. The script is well-written and the voice work is convincing, bringing the characters in Dogland to life. The teachable moments sprinkled throughout the episodes are also a wonderful addition, allowing for educational opportunities without feeling forced.
Another aspect that stands out is the catchy original tunes featured in each episode. They add an extra layer of enjoyment to the storytelling and my daughter often finds herself humming along with them. Additionally, there is an age-appropriate vocabulary lesson included, which helps expand my daughter's language skills while she's being entertained.
While there aren't many negative aspects to highlight about this podcast, one minor downside would be that my daughter often listens on her own, causing me to play catch-up with the episodes. However, I recognize that this is more due to the fact that she enjoys it so much rather than a fault of the podcast itself.
In conclusion, The Adventures of Power Dog in Dogland! is a fantastic podcast that I highly recommend for families. It provides a whimsical and immersive experience full of entertaining storytelling and engaging characters. Whether you're a parent looking for screen-free escapism or an adult seeking captivating storytelling, this podcast has something for everyone. It has quickly become a favorite in our household and we eagerly await each new episode.
We are so excited to share that the newest stories from Dogland are coming to your ears very soon! Please enjoy this new trailer for The Adventures of Power Dog in Dogland.

Who's ready to get this party startled?! We love Halloween and jokes so much that we decided to throw together this bonus episode of just super fun Howl-o-ween dog jokes and some of our favorite regular Halloween jokes for spooky season. And, if you haven't yet, be sure to check out our super sweet "Howl-o-ween" special! It's a fun, exciting, and magical tale of tails- about a pair of young raccoon-type twin dogs living on Dogland. This story can be listened to without having listened to our serial episodes in Seasons 1 & 2. Although the story has some mild suspense and Halloween-adjacent fun, it is mostly fun and silly and meant to delight young listeners (age 4+) and old. It will lift your spirits and give 'em pumpkin to talk about! Special thanks to our creative partner Jason Roark who records, edits, and designs this show. This episode featured a bit of Jason's Howl-o-ween version of a family favorite song, In the Hall of Mountain King by Grieg, who hated the song and wrote it to be a parody of the music of the time that he disliked. We love all of Peer Gynt and encourage you to check it out! Stick around to the very end of this jokes episode to hear a public domain symphony arrangement courtesy of Orange Free Sounds- a great resource for free audio. This podcast was made possible, in part, by a grant from The Regional Arts & Culture Council in Portland, OR. It was made more possible by listeners like you! Thank you for your support!

This is a very special bonus episode of The Adventures of Power Dog in Dogland that we decided to make during Summer break because we got to learn more about some superpower dogs right here on planet Earth this summer. Our deaf-blind cousin Lindy came to visit us and attended a summer camp created by Guide Dogs for the Blind. When we reached out to the organization, they were happy to teach us more through emails, conversations, and even a tour of the Guide Dogs for the Blind campus in Oregon. In this episode, you are going to hear our talks with cousin Lindy before camp, Outreach Specialist Jane Flower, and then Lindy again, after camp.

“What problems, what forces Against us shall bide While the stars in their courses Do fight on our side?” You may have noticed that we are really grooving on the concept of the universe wanting all of us to succeed, to thrive, and to love ourselves as well as each other.

Thank you for tuning in to a special, bedtime-friendly bonus episode of The Adventures of Power Dog in Dogland about falling in love with the sea! There's no loud, be-bopping rock anthem or toe-tapping banjo fun in this episode. Instead, you'll hear Phoebe's “sleepytime” voice, soothing ocean waves, and gentle music. We even end the episode with a solid five minutes of ocean waves gently splashing on soft, silky sand. And, as many listeners have requested, this is a story about Taffy, Power Dog's first cousin, and Tuffy's twin sister. We have sometimes referred to her as the bravest dog in all of Dogland, but a quality she has that we really admire is her curiosity. For this young pup who sat by the sea and who wondered — and for other puppies who wonder — What sea stories are yet to be told? We explain what “zoomies” are, how water travels through the world to become part of the ocean, what is left when you dry out ocean water, and what salt and lime crystals look like under a microscope. This story is based on the first part of a short and lovely book in the public domain called Sea Stories for Wonder Eyes by Mary Earle Hardy. You can hear the book read to you for free at Librivox.com- an incredible online catalog of free, public domain audiobooks read by volunteers from around the world. A note to grownups: because most of the books, short stories, and poems featured in Librivox are from around a century ago, some content may not feel suitable for your families to listen to and might be worth a preview before sharing with your younger people.

“What problems, what forces Against us shall bide While the stars in their courses Do fight on our side?” Adapted from Rudyard Kipling's The Astrologer's Song, this episode uses epic poetry to visit a dream state before Power Dog goes on to the next leg of his journey in our unfolding epic tale of tails for season two. We strongly believe in the power of poetry! If you'd like to read more about why it is so important for students, then we highly recommend reading this article from Edutopia: https://www.edutopia.org/blog/five-reasons-poetry-needed-schools-elena-aguilar. Art is the crucial language of emotion, and poetry refines our language. Poetry is music, and poetry is therapy. Poetry is joy, and poetry can be a righteous rage. It can teach social-emotional learning and help us find better ways to understand ourselves and others. If you love this episode, and it leaves you hungry for more great poetry for kids, we highly recommend checking out our friends and fellow Kids Listen member shows Buttons & Figs, Kids Poetry Club, and Mary Farfisa's Outer Space Radio Theater- a musical story podcast with wonderful poetry and poetic language stitched into the music and dialog. If you're completely new to our story, please go find episode 1, called "S1E1 | START HERE! | Power Dog Goes To College" as this is a serial story adventure that unfolds throughout each season. Special thanks to Jason Roark, our creative partner and ultimate Renaissance Bunny Supreme! He records, edits, and designs this show. He also provides original music including our opening theme song, which is sung & performed by him and the wonderful, talented Jen Bernard. They are both poets! Our song that plays at the end of this episode is a song we wrote along with Hank's Granny & Gramps, aka Murphy & Marckx. It's called “Power Dog, He Won't Give Up!” It started as poetry. Colin Laurel illustrated our cover art, which was directed by Jen Wick. Creating it was visualizing poetry.

We are taking a break from our regular, ongoing story while we celebrate Valentine's Day here on Planet Earth and Love Day on Dogland. We revisit the speech Dogland President Bernie Sandals gave about loving their world. Wouldn't it be lovely if we all made Valentine's Day about loving this world we live in? We also talk about how it isn't exactly accurate to say that dogs are colorblind, and we share a bunch of silly jokes! Special thanks to Jason Roark who records, edits, and designs this show. He also provides original music including our theme song, which is sung by him, and our background music. Jason was not able to edit this episode, but he set Phoebe & Hank up for success and a fun learning opportunity, which they enjoyed wholeheartedly. They had a blast using the free and fantastic resources at freeSFX dot com. We sourced nearly 30 fun sounds from their site! Jim Cheff, the creator of Mary Farfisa's Outer Space Radio Theater, illustrated Power Dog for our cover art, which was designed for this bonus episode by Phoebe. If you like this artwork and the silly Valentine's jokes in this episode, then you might enjoy our newest tee shirt and gifts available through Threadless: https://powerdog.threadless.com/designs/youre-pawesome We overjoyed to have been given permission to share the song that plays at the very end of this episode–called I-L-O-V-E-Y-O-U by Melanie Dill, from the album Rainbow Lemonade, which was one of the best children's albums ever created and followed one of the other best children's albums- Alphabet Parade. Thank you, Melanie Dill! Fun fact, Hank learned to spell the word “love” from singing along to this song, and he still sings it in his head when it's time to write it down.

What is FADPAK?! We are so glad you asked. FADPAK AKA Fairies and Dragons, Ponies and Knights is an episodic story for humans of all ages! Each episode is first broadcast live to a virtual audience on Zoom and followed by the release of the episode as a podcast. When Hank & Phoebe decided they wanted to make their own podcast, it was because they were already big fans of high-quality audio for kids, families, insomniacs, and story-lovers. They knew that they wanted to join the organization Kids Listen because they found so many great shows using their free app. And, when they joined, they discovered a feast for their ears! We were hooked from the first word, and from the first musical notes, on FADPAK, and we think you will be too. We hope you enjoy this bonus episode, which is equal parts glowing, excited review and their trailers for the show and their forthcoming Season 2!

The adventure continues for the power pals on Dogland in this thrilling 8th episode of Season 2. The dogs are off again, but not before we examine the role of the fight, flight, or freeze response and how it is a natural part of your amazing brain, more specifically, the amygdala. Studies have shown that just learning about this can help kids manage anxiety and regulate themselves after surprises, stress, and fright. We love Anxiety Canada's approach here, too: https://www.anxietycanada.com/articles/fight-flight-freeze-anxiety-explained-for-kids/ If you and your family are seeking more podcast-based resources for building mindfulness toolkits, then we also HIGHLY recommend these three fellow Kids Listen member podcasts.

We are so excited to be sharing this special episode with you, based on conversations we've had as we try to understand what it feels like to process, feel, define, and heal from trauma, what it means to find balance when you might be afraid of failure, and the strength we gain from family and community–making any adventures pawsible. As many parents and carers of kids know, the daily practice of guiding young people through life ranges from challenging to silly, and back again, and it can take us to deep places on a dime. This episode goes deep. We talk about how trauma can pass from body to body, how interconnected we are, and why it's a gift in life to experience failure. We use tools like deep belly breathing, rhyming jokes, EMDR to unpack distressing memories, affirmations of love, speaking our stories, and asking for help to lean into strength. And, we also share more about Mom Slice's past as a champion swordfighter! Also, one of the sweetest things Hank has ever shared about Dogland is information about the planet's “Great Great Tree” and the slogan, “We are all connected at our roots and rooted in our connection.” Some further resources for grown people are: On trauma and somatic healing: My Grandmother's Hands by Resmaa Menakem On everything from failure to shame to healing to living a wholehearted life, Brené Brown. And, for people of all ages, we recommend listening to fellow Kids Listen member show, Best Day Yet Podcast, a show serving affirmations, adventures, and mindfulness tools for calmer, kinder, more confident kids. Special thanks to Jason Roark who records, edits, and designs this show. He also provides original music including our theme song, which is sung by him and the wonderful, talented Jen Bernard.

Special thanks to Jason Roark who records, edits, and designs this show. He also provides original music including our theme song, which is sung by him and the wonderful, talented Jen Bernard. Jason was not able to edit this episode, but he set Phoebe & Hank up for success and a fun learning opportunity, which they enjoyed wholeheartedly. They had a blast using the free and fantastic resources at freeSFX dot com. We sourced nearly 30 fun sounds from their site! Colin Laurel illustrated our cover art, which was directed by Jen Wick. Our song that plays at the very end of this episode is a song we wrote along with Hank's Granny & Gramps, aka Murphy & Marckx. It's called “Power Dog, He Won't Give Up!” If you catch a moment, and can follow, rate, and/or review the show, we would be so grateful! It really helps get the word out for our small, indie, mom & pop & pup, family operation.

We are continuing our break while we celebrate Hanukkah here on Planet Earth, known as Howlukkah- the festival of lights on Dogland. Phoebe and Hank have a few silly jokes to share, followed by a replay of our Winter Howliday tale- Go Tail it on the Mountain! We're so happy we can share this special Winter Howliday episode with y'all! It's a little different, as it's not part of our serial, ongoing story. Join the dogs and Tick Tock Bunny as they celebrate their shortest days of the year together. We close out the episode with a very sweet Hanukkah song by one of our most favorite bands, Peanut Butter Jams. It's called Chanukah Lights from their delightful Holiday Bops album.

Hank's Granny, aka Jeanie Murphy, recorded three fun old-time turkey songs with her banjo for us this year, and we thought they were too great to keep to ourselves--especially in a season of giving! Hank had a lot of fun singing this particular Turkey Lurkey song with his fantastic music teacher at school, so he rang his Granny when he got home and they sang it together. We feel so fortunate to have a musical Granny, and Hank has been musical since before he was born. The two of them have been noodling on songs together since he was knee-high to a penny whistle! "Turkey in the Straw" is an American folk song that first gained popularity in the early 19th century. "Turkey Lurkey Run So Fast" is a classroom rhyme that Hank has really enjoyed. "A Turkey Ran Away" is a traditional Appalachian song.

We're taking a little break this week, but we still put together this bonus episode to share fun jokes & ridiculous food puns as well as some more fun music from Hank's Granny, aka Jeanie Murphy. We also share a bit more about the famous Dogland saying, “We are all connected at our roots, and rooted in our connection.” It feels perfect to talk about connection at this time. We round out the episode with a talk about Native American Heritage Month and share a trailer from one of our favorite shows and a special song from their incredible composer. Stay past the jokes to hear the trailer for Coin Trick, https://www.cointrick.net/, a narrative series that follows 12-year-old Cassidy and the flute-playing mischief-maker Kokopelli on their adventures through a fantasy world based in Native American mythology. Coin Trick is a fellow member of Kids Listen- a great place to find wonderful family shows. We are blown away, honored, and excited to share a song gifted to us from Coin Trick's composer, Shelley Morningsong, https://shelleymorningsongonline.com/. Shelley has also written a gorgeous children's book, and it includes a free audio download that we are loving in our house. This resource from IllumiNative called "How to Center and Be a Good Ally to Indigenous People this Thanksgiving" is an excellent read. https://bit.ly/3FIELv2 We really enjoyed this article from PBS about finding ways to honor the real history of this time in the US : https://www.pbs.org/parents/thrive/thanksgiving-practicing-gratitude-and-honoring-the-real-story We are really impressed by this coverage in Teen Vogue: Land Acknowledgements: https://www.teenvogue.com/story/indigenous-land-acknowledgement-explained We create this show in the ancestral lands of the Multnomah, Wasco, Kathlamet, Clackamas, Cowlitz, bands of Chinook, Tualatin Kalapuya, Molalla, and many other Tribes of the first people who made their homes along the rivers here in what is now called “Portland, Oregon.” These groups created communities and summer encampments along the Columbia and Willamette rivers and harvested and used the plentiful natural resources of the area for thousands of years. Today, the Native community of Portland is the 9th largest urban population in the USA.

Who's ready to get this party startled?! We love Halloween and jokes so much that we decided to throw together one more little bonus episode of just super fun Howl-o-ween dog jokes and some of our favorite regular Halloween jokes for the season! After the past couple of years, we all feel like celebrating just a little more than ever before, right?! And, if you haven't yet, be sure to check out our super sweet "Howl-o-ween" special! It's a fun, exciting, and magical tale of tails- about a pair of young raccoon-type twin dogs living on Dogland. This story can be listened to without having listened to our serial episodes in Seasons 1&2, but it is also how we are choosing to kick off Season 2. Although the story has some mild suspense and Halloween-adjacent fun, it is mostly fun and silly and meant to delight young listeners (age 4+) and old. It will lift your spirits and give 'em pumpkin to talk about! Special thanks to our creative partner Jason Roark who records, edits, and designs this show. This episode featured a bit of Jason's Howl-o-ween version of a family favorite song, In the Hall of Mountain King by Grieg, who hated the song and wrote it to be a parody of the music of the time that he disliked. We love all of Peer Gynt and encourage you to check it out! Stick around to the very end of this jokes episode to hear a public domain symphony arrangement courtesy of Orange Free Sounds- a great resource for free audio.

Here's a quick bit of Halloween fun from Hank's Granny, aka Jeanie Murphy, that we were so thrilled to have her record for us and our Howl-o-ween special with her banjo.

Here's a quick bit of Halloween fun from Hank's Granny, aka Jeanie Murphy, that we love to play in our home and sing along with as well! Jeanie played this old traditional song—that she learned and loved from Jean Ritchie—for and with her kids (that's Hank's mom & uncle) when they were little, so it's a great fun to pass it along to another generation. We hope you enjoy it, too! If you love old songs and sing-alongs, we hope that you will check out Jean Ritchie!

She goes from planet to planet, searching for “songs and sounds and music and noise” to share with the rest of the Universe. Mary catches the songs and sounds and music and noise in her “audio lasso.” Then she brings them to the Listener's Library — an intergalactic collection of sounds, curated by music-loving super-beings called the “Listeners.” Over the season, you get to know quite a few endearing, exciting, and clever characters. Parents will appreciate the beautiful music, high audio quality, and refreshing dash of humor in the characters and dialogue.Episode 1: THE SOUND STEALER - Mary Farfisa and her space-horse Briscoe visit Bazorbabill, where all of the sounds things make are mysteriously disappearing.
