About this episode

The episode introduces 'The Midnight Rebellion', an interactive adventure podcast for children.

Circle Round brings you a special new podcast: The Midnight Rebellion , by WBUR, the same place that makes our show! Heads up! This podcast is recommended for ages 7+. The Midnight Rebellion , starring Erika Henningsen (Netflix's "The Four Seasons") and others, tells the story of a girl on an adventure in a watery world where everything is wrong. And she has to set it right—with help from YOU. Each episode ends with a choice. What YOU choose changes the story, sometimes for the better, and sometimes ... not. Either way, it's fun!
