Breaking News: Season 2 of the Podcast is Here!
“What will I be when I grow up? An astronaut? A teacher? A filmmaker? An athlete?” Students wonder about so many things when dreaming about their futures (and so do many adults!). If the kids in your life are asking these questions, Most Likely To, a podcast by DonorsChoose is the perfect listen in 2025.
For 25 years, DonorsChoose has been helping teachers give their students the resources they need, and our podcast was created with this goal in mind: a new resource for kids to hear directly from professionals from underrepresented backgrounds in a wide range of industries. Most Likely To is all about the journeys people take to get to where they are, making every dream accessible to students across the country.
Hosted by Janelle Lin, Most Likely To has already featured so many inspiring guests, from beauty industry powerhouse Amy Liu to Broadway star Jose Llana to groundbreaking scientist Dr. Raven Baxter (just to name a few!). With a new sponsorship from KPMG, season 2 promises an equally exciting lineup — kicking things off with Olympic Gold Medalist Laurie Hernandez.
You don’t have to wait; check out Laurie’s episode today! In the season premiere, students will learn how Laurie went from normal kid to Olympic medalist and the many different sources of strength she found along the way, including her community.
