…we debut our first ever “mini” episode (OK, it’s not THAT mini, we guess) as we take a brief glimpse into Webkinz’s early days.
Sneek Peek: A quick look at upcoming St. Patrick’s Day events!
What’s In Our KinzPost?: We read letters and comments from Webkinz World members about their favorite Webkinz memories.
Meet a Ganz-er: We speak with Laura, an Associate Producer at Ganz, who played an important part in creating Webkinz from the very beginning.
What’s Next: We have important St. Patrick’s Day questions for our listeners!
Dear Genelle and Mike, I loved your mini show. I really liked to learn more about how Webkinz started, it was fun. I get on every day. The first pet I got was a husky dog. When I get on I have so much fun I lose track on how long I’ve been playing. I love getting new pets. I also love playing in the arcade, and doing chalenges. I just recently found out that I can get on Ganzworld and share comments, but I love it. Seeing other player’s thoughts is fun. Thank you for doing your job and making everything SO MUCH FUN!!
I have been on webkinz for 2 years and have 25 pets.
why are u going not have webkinz sigs plz tell me
dear mike and gennelle, i love your show! i really miss the old webkinz, even though i love the current one! i love the way webkinz is right now. question: when was the clubhouse and trading room invented? i love the trading room. my first webkinz was a black and white cat, and she is so cute, i got her on my seventh birthday. at that time, everyone had a webkinz and in the end, i got four at my party! when was the estore introduced? i want to know. one more thing: thanks for an awesome show! :)
My favorite moment was when I got my first webkinz, which is a walrus I named Mr.Walter. I have about 30 pets now, but I still play with Mr.Walter the most because he is my first webkinz. I love St. Patrick’s Day because I am part Irish, and because of the Leprechauns!
My favorite part about St. Patricks Day is getting all the unique prizes and catching the Leprecaun. ♣
