Burpalot is the cheerful Goop who burps the loudest burps in all the land. When he enters Goop World's first Big Shine Contest, he gulps a whole can of grape soda, and his burp is so big it blasts him into the sky. He lands inside a giant airplane where everyone floats, and he discovers he isn't the only stowaway on board.

Kids will learn about the real Weightless Wonder, nicknamed the Vomit Comet, which flies out of Houston, Texas, near where NASA trains astronauts. They'll find out how the plane climbs and dives to create about twenty-five seconds of weightlessness, sometimes sixty times in one flight, and how scientists tested whether cats can land on their feet with no floor to push against. Along the way, Burpalot learns that the thing that makes you different can be exactly what connects you to someone new.

Show notes

Free Goop Kit: help your child create their own Goop. Get it here: gooptales.com/kit

Gemarina can't stop collecting gems, every glint, every shimmer, every fleck of quartz she spots before anyone else, and she believes the only way to keep something she loves is to hold onto everything else too. Armed with an overstuffed pouch that never stays tied, she tumbles from Goop World straight into a hidden Highland gem cache in Scotland, a secret pocket of cairngorm, the smoky quartz so prized that a queen once had it set into her jewelry, where the stones shift under her feet, a golden eagle circles overhead, and an ancient creature called a Ghillie Dhu is watching every grab she makes. This audio story for kids is packed with jaw-dropping real-world facts, genuine edge-of-your-seat danger, and one wildly unexpected moment where Gemarina's tightest grip turns out to be exactly the thing she has to let go of.

Wrestler can't stop wrestling everything around him — pillows, doors, hedges, the wind — and believes every single win belongs to his homemade tinfoil WORLD CHAMP belt, not to himself. Armed with a cardboard championship belt and an undefeated record, he tumbles from Goop World all the way to a golden mud pit in Kolhapur, India, where wrestlers train every morning in earth mixed with ghee, buttermilk, and turmeric — and the best young wrestler in the akhara is already waiting for him in the pit. This audio story for kids is packed with jaw-dropping real-world facts, genuine edge-of-your-seat danger, and one wildly unexpected moment where Wrestler's most stubborn belief turns out to be exactly the thing he has to let go of.

GT137 - Spirit and the Jellyfish Lake of Palau Jun 28, 2026

Spirit is the quietest Goop around — so quiet she can disappear into her own thoughts without ever leaving the room. The moment she touches her smooth river stone, she's gone, lost in a daydream nothing can reach. But when that stone pulls her straight into the warm, golden waters of Jellyfish Lake in Palau, surrounded by millions of gentle, harmless jellyfish, Spirit discovers a world more astonishing than anything in her imagination. With the help of a small fish named Mechel, she learns the lake's hidden rules — and when a massive saltwater crocodile rises from the mangroves, it's the very stillness that gets Spirit into trouble at school that just might save her life. This episode explores Palau's remarkable jellyfish lake, a Palauan creation legend, and what happens when the thing we think is our flaw turns out to be exactly what we need.

GT136 - Mocker and the Flaming Gobi Cliffs Jun 15, 2026

Show notes

Free Goop Kit: help your child create their own Goop. Get it here: gooptales.com/kit

Mocker is a Goop boy with a habit he simply cannot switch off -- whatever voice goes into his ears comes straight back out again, pitch perfect, not one tiny bit wrong. It's funny, mostly. Until he mimics his best friend Spirit's strange and beautiful sound at the old stone wall at the edge of Goop World, and the wall swallows him whole.

He lands in the Gobi Desert in Mongolia, tiny and alone at the base of the Flaming Cliffs -- ancient orange rock filled with oval shapes sealed inside the stone for eighty million years. With only a wild Bactrian camel for company and something moving beneath the sand that no one wants to get too close to, Mocker quickly discovers that copying the wrong voice at the wrong moment can land you somewhere very difficult to get down from.

Will Mocker find a way to use his most embarrassing habit to silence the thing beneath the sand? And where in the world has Spirit disappeared to while he was gone?

GT135 - Hugalina and Kissalina and the Pink Lake of Senegal Jun 01, 2026

Show notes

Free Goop Kit: help your child create their own Goop. Get it here: gooptales.com/kit

Hugalina and Kissalina are the most affectionate twin Goops in all of Goop World — Hugalina hugs everything in sight whether it asks for it or not, and Kissalina never meets anything without first reaching for her shimmering pot of vanilla lip balm. When a mysterious glowing pink rock at the edge of the meadow hums back at them, the twins do the only thing they know how to do: Hugalina wraps it in her gold-trimmed blanket and Kissalina presses her lips to its surface — and the rock pulls them both straight into its rosy center.

They land with an enormous splash in the extraordinary bubblegum-pink waters of Lake Retba in Senegal, where salt harvesters move through the shallows with flat baskets on their heads and pink pelicans stand unbothered on the shore. But when a fallen basket disturbs the living microorganisms that give the lake its color, the water turns a deep, ominous red — and something beneath the surface begins to pull.

Will Kissalina's most prized possession be enough to calm a lake that has been alive longer than anyone can remember? And what does a Senegalese salt harvester know about love that the twins are only just beginning to understand? This is a story about the most powerful force in the world — and it isn't strength, and it isn't cleverness.

Follow Matho, a brilliantly obsessive little Goop boy whose mind never stops calculating, as he gets swept up into a spinning vortex of numbers and lands inside the legendary NEMO Science Museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Armed with only his trusty abacus and his ruler socks, Matho must solve his way through a maze of glowing equations -- but the more he solves, the more the numbers multiply. Can a golden-eyed barn owl named Sofie, and a warm Dutch stroopwafel, teach Matho that knowing when to stop is the greatest math problem of all?

In the whimsical world of Goop Tales, Imaginativa possesses the most vivid imagination of all the Goops. While other students doze off during Miss Wigglebutt's boring lectures, Imaginativa transforms ordinary moments into extraordinary visions. When she picks up her magical binoculars and a mysterious paintbrush in her playroom, she paints a blue door in mid-air and steps through it, vanishing into another dimension entirely. Imaginativa finds herself in Zalipie, Poland—a real village where every surface bursts with hand-painted flowers in brilliant reds, yellows, and greens. But when she discovers a haunting blank wall guarded by creeping vines and a terrifying painted squid, she becomes trapped. A friendly golden sunflower warns her that this wall once held the most beautiful paintings in the entire village, until something stole its light and buried it deep underground.

Can Imaginativa's powerful imagination defeat the sinister squid and restore the wall's stolen brilliance? Or will she remain trapped in the painted village forever, unable to return home to Goop World?
