About Mr. Jim:

Hi! I'm Jim Jacob, a South Carolina based creator. I started as a podcaster by accident. Our first real episodes on the internet were me trying to find a solution to help tell my sons stories as I was traveling for work. I recorded some stories and hoped that by uploading them to a podcast app, my wife and kids could have easy access to listen. What started as a fix for our family’s bedtime routine interruption has grown into a worldwide audience with hundreds of thousands of listeners. My wife Jocelyn and I have 3 kids and love inspiring others towards greater imagination and curiosity.

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hello, friends, Welcome to s Biology Squad. We are a
team of spies who specialize in science. You see doctor
Stinky Breath in the Purple Ninjas are trying to take
over the world through science and it is up to
us to stop them before it is too late.

Speaker 2 (00:30):
Last time on Spiology Squad, we saw that Ava and
Jaden are completely locked inside of Spiology Squad HQ because
all communications, Internet and everything are down because of the
solar flares that are being created by the Purple Ninjas
and doctors sinking your breath and the Purple Lazer. What
in the world is gonna happen next? Let's find out.

(00:52):
Heh heh. That was the voice of Ava and Jaden
banging and screaming from the inside of his Biology Squad HQ.
Lucky enough for them, mister Jim had forgotten something at
HQ and was coming back to pick it up. Guys,

(01:12):
is that you in there? Shouted mister Jim. Yus, yus,
it's Ava and Jiden. The door won't open. I think
it has something to do with all the communications being down. Okay,
you'll just need to find a ladder and climb out
through the skylight in the ceiling I had to use
that once when I forgot my access card. Uh, just

(01:34):
be careful, shouted mister Jim. On the inside, Ava and
Jaden found a ladder and carefully crawled out through the
skylight in the ceiling. Mister Jim, you're not going to
believe what we found. As they carefully climbed down from
the roof. You found something. Yeah, what is it? Said

(01:54):
mister Jim. Look over there. Ava pointed her finger off
towards the west, first at the purple blimp in the clouds,
and then is that a purple laser? Said mister Jim. Yep,
pointed directly at the sun that's just now coming over
the horizon, said Ava. It looks like they're behind all

(02:17):
of this. But how is that even possible, said mister Jim.
I'm glad you asked, said Jaden.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
Ava.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
I wasn't just sleeping last night. I was actually reading
through the encyclopedias from my grandma's house encyclopedias, said mister Jim.
I haven't seen this since I was a kid. Well,
they're pretty complicated, said Jaden. You can't even talk to him.
You have to actually flip the pages and look through it.

(02:46):
But anyway, I learned all about the Sun's surface and
why solar flares? Could you know, cause this many problems
here on Earth. You see, the Sun is constantly giving
off something called the electromagnet. How do you say that?
Abe looked down and said, electromagnetic radiation. Oh that's a

(03:08):
big one, yes, EMR, said Jaden. It gives it off
in all directions, and when a solar flare occurs, more
of this EMR electromagnetic blah Blahaetta is ejected. If that
solar flare is pointed directly towards Earth, that's increases the
amount of that EMR that the Earth saves. And if

(03:30):
it's powerful enough, that's when some serious problems can happen
with like our communications and satellites. So that's what we've
been seeing so far, right, said mister Jim exactly. But
there's something even worse. You see these things called solar superstorms. Well,

(03:50):
that's pretty much the end of everything electrical, even from
your phone to a flashlight, anything that's plugged in or
with a battery. At EMR, if it's strong enough, can
shut it all down, said Jaden. That sounds like a
serious game over here on Earth, said Ava. You don't

(04:11):
think they're trying to create one of those solar superstorms,
do you, asked mister Jim. Well, the fact that they
have some kind of laser pointed directly at the sun
and we are having more of those solar flares, it
looks like they are, said Ava. Okay, then we need
to make sure that laser gets turned off before it's
too late for the whole world. I'm on it, said Ava,

(04:34):
who is already putting on her jetpack. Jaden, I need
you to use your binoculars and keep an eye on
that blimp. Since none of our systems work, we have
to use our eyes. And here's a pair of some
really old short range walkie talkies since our normal ones
aren't working. This is all we got. Mister Jim handed
both Ava and Jaden a pair of these old walkie

(04:56):
talkies that we're somehow still working. Jaden grabbed his binocular
Ava blasted off on her jetpack. She shortly arrived at
the blimp. Since it wasn't that far away, snuck through
the back window. She can overhear the Purple Ninjas talking
about something.

Speaker 4 (05:13):
All right, so this laser think it's going pretty well,
don't you think dude, it's pretty ucivel that sticky crystal.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
Kid.

Speaker 4 (05:20):
Hey, let's not talk about that stinky crystal, just in
case anyone's listening.

Speaker 2 (05:26):
Yeah, you mean like me, shouted Ava as she dove
into the room towards the stinky crystal.

Speaker 4 (05:31):
Where do you come from?

Speaker 2 (05:33):
It was sitting there on a stand, right in the
middle of all the laser stuff. She grabbed it and
took off running.

Speaker 4 (05:41):
Hey, come back.

Speaker 2 (05:43):
She dove out the window with her jet bag and
blasted off safely on air fings. Aver this going on here,
Papa Ninjas invites the laser get turned off. Tell me
you can turn it back on the right now.

Speaker 4 (06:01):
Well, I thought exactly how to say this.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
But PURPENSI, guys, guys, I got it. There was some
kind of crystal light thing powering the whole thing. Did
the sun stop pulsing like that? Sh No, it's still
pulsing and all of our communications are still down. It
must not have worked. Sh Wait a second, didn't you

(06:28):
say something about it taking a long time for the
light to reach the sun? Said Ava? Sh Oh, yeah,
oh what was it? How many minutes? Was it? Was it?
Eight minutes? Sh Yeah, that sounds right, said Ava, they're right.
You see the light. Remember it travels at a certain speed,

(06:48):
and if it has to go really far distance you
have you can calculate how long it will take to
get there. And remember, the Sun's light reaches us in
eight minutes, and so do you think if that laser
beam was coming from us towards the Sun, would it
travel in the same time. Yes, that laser that the

(07:09):
Purple Ninjas were shooting at the Sun, it takes eight
minutes to reach the Sun. And so even though we
turned it off now, there's still eight more minutes of
laser that are headed towards the Sun. I hope it's
not too late before that superstorm starts up. All of
a sudden, Ava's walkie talkie cut off and her jetpack

(07:32):
it shut down as she fell out of the sky. Thankfully,
there was a river below that she crashed into. Jaden
was watching the whole thing happen and ran as fast
as he could to the river's edge. Hava, Hey, are
you okay, shouted Jaden. Her head popped up from the

(07:53):
water and she swam to shore. Here. Grab my hand,
said Jaden. That was crazy. What just happened? Said Ava.
I don't know, but it can't be good. If more
of our electrical systems are shutting down, that must mean
the solar storms are getting even worse, said Jaden. But

(08:14):
then all of a sudden, their walkie talkie turned back
on and they could hear mister Jim, sh guys, you
did it? What in the world happened up there? But
everything turned back on. Ava and Jaden looked at each
other and instantly hugged. They couldn't believe it that they
actually stopped the sun just in time before it turned

(08:37):
into a ginormous solar superstorm. Who hopefully now everything will
go back to normal. Sh, that's great news, mister Jim. Well, yeah,
I found some kind of crystal up in the blimp
lab that I think was powering the whole thing. We
should probably run some experiments on it in the lab,
just to figure out what in the world this thing is.

(09:00):
And I will be there in a minute, over and out. Meanwhile,
up in the stinky blim blab Peppen ninjas. I do
not know how many times we have to have this conversation,
but how could you lose the stinky crystal? Oh?

Speaker 4 (09:20):
Bus Well, I think there is a kid that came
through the window with the blimp.

Speaker 3 (09:27):
I know what happened, but how could you let these happen?

Speaker 2 (09:34):
The Purple Ninjas didn't know what to say. Their eyes
were just very large. Well, you better make it up
to me.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
You better get to work on creating a new stinky crystal.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
Oh dear, looks like this is definitely not the end
of this adventure. We need more kids just like you
on our Biology Squad. If you love science or if
you love stopping bad guys, you need to go to
biologysquad dot com so that you can join our team.

(10:12):
Because there's an adventure around every corner.
