Under the Hood
with Mathias
How it's built, how it works, and who makes it go.
A curious kid who wants to know how the world's machines really work, so he goes and asks the people who build and run them.
A seven-year-old who wants to know how everything works.
Mathias is curious about how things work: cars and engines, robots, rockets, cranes, and the gadgets around the house. So instead of guessing, he goes and finds out for himself.
Each episode, he meets the people who build and run these machines, asks the questions a kid actually wonders about, and explains what he learns to you. Real makers, real answers.
"If I want to know how something works, I go and ask the person who made it. That's the whole show."
Four worlds, and we're just getting started.
Short episodes, big curiosity, and always the same move: find the people who build and run these things, and ask them how. Built for kids, honest enough that the grown-ups stick around too.
Things that go
Cars and engines, trains, planes, drones and rockets. Anything with a motor and somewhere to be.
Robots & humanoids
Helper robots, humanoids, drones and self-driving machines. How they sense, move and (kind of) think.
Big builds
Cranes, bridges, tunnels, diggers and giant ships. The massive machines that build our world.
Everyday machines
The gadgets and gizmos around the house. How the ordinary stuff actually works once you take it apart.
And in every world, the same idea: Mathias meets the makers, the people who build and run these things, and finds out how they do it.
