    I am hard of hearing so I use the closed captions and they are so funny. I wondered why weapons were mentioned and then I realized the captions said that instead of Webkinz and I know not to send a message to Pike. Surely you can do better than this. It’s not like it has te be real-time.

    • Gennelle Webkinz says:

      The closed captions are done by YouTube, and yes they can be inadvertently funny! As I’ve said in the past, we currently are unable to provide transcripts but if the Webkinz Newz commenting community wants to transcribe Podkinz episodes, I’d be happy to open a new Forum where they organize and can post them. If anyone wants to volunteer, please respond to this thread and we can start it up.

      • prprprprp says:

        I will be the leader! I’ll transcribe all the previous Podkinz episodes for the hard of hearing, people who’s computers volume does not work, or who’s safety mode won’t let them watch the video, lol. :) Please, open one up! I can start getting to work right now, transcribing them in notepads and then putting them into posts when the forum opens up. Please? I’ll even do ALL of them, no one else has to! (although they certainly can if they want) I’m really excited about this! I’ve been wanting to be able to do this FOREVER!! :D Please? Pretty pretty please open one up? :D

        • Gennelle Webkinz says:

          Awesome, thanks. OK, I made the topic and it’s right here: http://webkinznewz.ganzworld.com/forums/topic/podkinz-transcripts/. If anyone wants to try transcribing an episode, I would suggest doing the episodes in order from 1-31 to make it easier for readers to follow. Each forum post is moderated so it may not appear right away. Thanks to everyone for participating!

    Hi Podkinz! I am really excited for Valentines day! Although, according to a friendly game of Apples to Apples with my friends, it can be dangerous… LOL. I even know a cute DIY you can do with all the Valentines Day cards for your Webkinz! Just reuse the old Valentines Day mini cards you usually get from school, and you have a cute webkinz poster! Just put some tape on the back and stick it low on your bedroom wall, next to your webkinz, and there you go! Thanks guys!

    Hi Gennelle… My Wisteria Trees on the map are not working. They are there, but buildings and roads run right through them, like they’re ghost trees. How can I get this fixed? …boorepko

    hi Gennelle! Happy Valentines Day! this year, my school has come up with the idea of “Secret Cupid” its sort of like a secret Santa, but on Valentine’s day! Everyone gets a person to give gifts to throughout February in a bag on their locker. and on our Valentine’s Day party, it is revealed who everyone’s secret cupid is.

    Just so you know, Pandas dont live in the jungle. Also, Gennelle, its not your fault that you said pandas live in the jungle. Its Matt’s fault for telling you that. Silly Matt.

  8. guamgirl says:

    Giant pandas live in broadleaf and coniferous FORESTS with a dense understory of bamboo, at elevations between 5,000 and 10,000 feet. Torrential rains or dense mist throughout the year characterizes these FORESTS, often shrouded in heavy clouds.

  9. alicat says:

    Did you guys say the Panda lives in the Jungle?

    What is podcast?

    • prprprprp says:

      Hi owllover03, I’m assuming you mean what is a podcast, not what is Podkinz? If that is what you mean, then a podcast is like a show, but with no images, just talking, and a new one is made every week or so by the same people/person. It can have many different subjects. Some are just about every random thing, some are about religion, some are about education, some are about clubs, and some, like this one, Podkinz, is about a fun online game. :) They are usually played on the radio, but this one is on a website. :) I hope that helps you understand! If not, I can certainly try to explain better. :) Just LMK!

    • chatzter says:

      off topic but how do coment when you have to go to school?

      • prprprprp says:

        A lot of us (including me) are homeschooled. So, we can go on at different times, because we don’t always do our homework at the same time as people who go to school. :)
