Kid President

53 episodes

Robby Novak, in a suit and tie, talking straight to camera about being a person worth being. The pep talks run three to five minutes and say things like keep going, you matter, awesome looks like you. The longer Kid Correspondent pieces, ten to fifteen minutes, take on how a group makes a fair decision, whether kids' voices count, and how to disagree with someone and stay friends. Socktober turns the whole thing into an actual collection drive for socks. Reach for a pep talk on a rough Monday; reach for a Correspondent episode when the class needs to argue well.
