Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:04):
Welcome back to Kids Short Stories. If this is your
first time listening, welcome to the family. This is a
big deal that you have started listening to our podcast.
My name is mister Jim and I love making stories
every single day for you and parents, me and my
wife and kids. This has changed our family's life of

(00:24):
reducing screen time and just making imagination come alive. Well,
are you guys ready for today's adventure? Me too. Let's go.
A very very long time ago lived a dinosaur named Eli.

(00:49):
Eli was a very large dinosaur that always was very
hungry and sometimes eight things on accident that he he
wasn't really supposed to eat, but it was just you know,
around his mouth when he was chomping up all of
his food. Like one time he ate a tree, like

(01:14):
the tree trunk and all. He was not supposed to
eat tree trunks, but again it was too close to
his mouth. Oh and like the other time he ate
a ginormous rock, it gave him a very big tummy ache. Well,
today something kind of like that happened, but it was
much much worse.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
Oh, OI can't wait to eat all of my food today.
If I'm awake, I am eating. If I am not
eating and awake, I am looking for something to eat,
said Eli. It was true.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
That's pretty much how he spent his entire awake life.
Like he did sleep a lot, but when he was
awake he was looking for food. Enough was never enough
for Eli's ginormous tummy. Look at those fields of watermelons. Ohs,
look delicious. Oh I'm gonna eat them all m hm,

(02:18):
as he started running through this watermelon field, which was
full of really delicious looking watermelons. Mind you, I might
even want to have one or two or three of
those as well. Do you like eating watermelons? Oh, watermelons,
those are delicious. Oh, I just can't stop thinking about

(02:40):
how juicy a good watermelon is. And oh, look at Eli,
he's eating a ton of watermelons. Meanwhile, on the other
side of the field was another critter, a magical unicorn.
You see, back in dinosaur dimes, there were not many unicorns.
They were pretty rare, even rarer than they are today.

(03:04):
And this unicorn was working on a very special watermelon
cotton candy experiment that she was very excited about. Our
poor less uskub de luss us our half thus rattle
melon on' that wrong and that's wrong, de luss Us.

(03:25):
I came round a sarathovral bottle. You see, every unicorn
has a different skill and a different job and thing
that they're good at, and she was really good at
making the world's most delicious cotton candy. Holy smokes, I've
never had watermelon cotton candy. That sounds like a good idea.
I think I want to try some of that. Well.

(03:47):
As Eli, the dinosaur was chomping his way through the field.
Unfortunately our unicorn friend did not hear him coming, and
unfortunately something terrible happened. Oh uh oh, that was a
delicious field of watermelons. Uh what does that sound?

Speaker 3 (04:17):
And why does it feel like there's something stuck inside
of my throat?

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Ow? Sh said Eli.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
Hell, little surrollerble, get me all out.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
Of flour, shouted the unicorn. Oh no, holy smoked. That
dinosaur he was so hungry that he ate the unicorn.
He didn't even know it. Oh, this is terrible. When
am I ever gonna get my watermelon coton caddy? If
the unicorn got eaten.

Speaker 5 (04:46):
B.

Speaker 1 (04:50):
Well, good thing. The story does not end here, and
I better stop crying because, uh, don't worry. This unicorn
is gonna find a very interesting way that she escapes
this dinosaur's throat. As soon as Eli the dinosaur realized
that he had swallowed a very rare cotton candy making unicorn,

(05:10):
he felt very bad about it.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
Oh, dear out, not only does this hurt my throat
but hurts my heart. I feel so terrible that I
literally ate the unicorn. Hello, little unicorn in there? Are
you okay?

Speaker 5 (05:29):
Raw?

Speaker 1 (05:29):
I'm I'm some little stuck inside her throat. My horn
cut little webs on.

Speaker 6 (05:35):
This little so I doesn't far all around the or
bottle shure, that's a close run.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
But had around and out of there. She shouted, Oh good, well, uh.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
I guess Oh yes, Martin, my friend Martin the monkey
might be able to help.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Let's go. Eli the dinosaur started running through the forrest
to go meet up with his monkey friend Martin. Martin,
I need your help, he shouted.

Speaker 6 (06:11):
Hello there, Eliah. What seems to be the problem, Martin?

Speaker 3 (06:18):
Something dreadful happened. Hi accidentally eight unicorn?

Speaker 6 (06:25):
How did that happen?

Speaker 3 (06:27):
There was a delicious field of what malone's and I
hate them all and accidentally somehow swallowed the unicorn Along
the way, sit here.

Speaker 1 (06:37):
He was pointing to his throat, which had a very
large thing pointing out the side of it. That is
the unicorn's horn. Uh, I say, hello, little unicorn. Hello, laugh,
arm stuck al her some problem dot some oil or something.

Speaker 6 (06:56):
Oh, that's a good IDEA oil will make a lot
slipperer and help us be able to pull her out
of there.

Speaker 1 (07:04):
I got some coconut oil.

Speaker 6 (07:06):
Just hang on a second.

Speaker 4 (07:09):
Martin.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
The monkey jumped up a whole bunch of branches and
ran back to a place that I think he hides
a lot of his things and found some coconut oil
that would hopefully make it slippery enough to pull that
unicorn on out of there. As he came back holding
a jar of coconut oil, he had a very important
request for Eli the dinosaur.

Speaker 6 (07:31):
So you have to promise when I go in your
mouth to put this coconut oil in there, you have
to ProBiS to not eat me.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
Oh oh, Martin, I would never eat you. Just believe me.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
I will not.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
I will hold my mouth open and you do your work.
Martin the Monkey cautiously climbed inside and carefully dumped all
the coke and oil that he had down into the throat. Ah,
this is disgusting, shouted the unicorn. Brother suck, I'm on

(08:09):
the wiggle a.

Speaker 6 (08:10):
Lot, butler, sir, gran MOUs alumn purmela.

Speaker 1 (08:14):
She shouted. Martin the Monkey grabbed onto the tail and
pulled with all of its might. All right, I gotcha
what two three? He pulled and out popped the unicorn.
Her thoughts was so much for Solvona.

Speaker 5 (08:32):
Her was ll nostile, little unicorn. I'm so sorry for
have eaten you, hi. I will never do it again.
I will be more careful when I am eating our
sort around a dinalds A run of those tribal wow,
run of my lungs.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
She was still a little upset, but Martin the Monkey
made her feel a lot better when he reached back
and handed her two watermelons from his own stash.

Speaker 6 (09:02):
Here, you can have some of mine, because you're the
one that makes all that delicious cotton candy.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
Right, yes, heir, our thoughts wi serleuts plus our broth.
I don't have a DUTs of rock all and that
is the end of our story. But holy smokes, what
a crazy adventure that Eli the ninas or accidentally ate
a yotic card. I think he needs to take better
care of looking where he's chomping before he swallows. I'm

(09:32):
so glad that Martin the Monkey was able to save
the day and even make sure that they all got
some delicious watermelon cotton candy the end. Great job, you
