Part trivia podcast, part interview show, Stump Mr. Eric lets you ask us all kinds of questions. Tell us some trivia you know, or ask a question for Mr. Eric, Miss Lynn, or a What If World character of your choice. We try something new every month, so give us a challenge for one of our segments. Speaking in rhymes or questions? Improv games? Riddles? You name it, and (with any luck) we'll try it!

We need your questions! With your grownup's permission, supporters can send Stumper questions and ideas to whatifworldpodcast@gmail.com. Use the word "Stump" or "Stumper" in the subject line, please. 

Make sure to share the answers, too, so we can all learn together. And as always, let's keep it kind!
