Questions parents ask
What age is Million Bazillion for?
PodFocus lists it for ages 9 to 14. Ranges overlap on purpose: where a child lands inside one depends more on the child than on the number.
How long are Million Bazillion episodes?
Episodes run about 27 minutes, most between 22 and 30 minutes. Long enough to cover a proper drive.
Is Million Bazillion still making new episodes?
Yes. New episodes come out about once a week; the latest was released on 20 October 2026. The feed lists 99 episodes going back to 2020.
Where should we start?
Anywhere. Try a recent episode, or one about something your child already loves, and if it lands, work back through the older ones.
Can my child listen without Wi-Fi?
In PodFocus, yes. Download episodes at home and they play without a connection, including in the car through CarPlay.
