Speaker 1: you're new to kids podcasting, I'm gonna challenge you to

12
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: listen to podcasting for five days in a row with

Speaker 1: your kids. It's going to increase their imagination, decrease screen time,

14
00:00:45,680 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: and we're gonna have a lot of fun along the way.

15
00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:51,519
Speaker 2: Are you guys ready for today's adventure? Me too, Let's go.

16
00:00:57,480 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: Enzo and Nova.

17
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 2: Struggled to free themselves from the gigantic dentacles wrapped around them.

18
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 1: They were both suctioned in place what on giant suckers,

19
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: and no amount of wiggling could free them. Let us call,

20
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:23,000
Speaker 1: yelled Enzo, as the tentacles soared out from inside the

21
00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,000
Speaker 1: cave and up toward a giant pair of.

22
00:01:25,920 --> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 2: Eyeballs the size of beach umbrellas. Holy smokes, those are

23
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 2: some big eyes. Do you think they need glasses?

24
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 1: Like?

25
00:01:35,360 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 2: What happens if? Oh no, no, no, we're not talking about glasses.

26
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,480
Speaker 2: Nola and so heartstuck.

27
00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: They were still clutching the treasure they had found deep

28
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: in the cave. Jimmy the Kraken lifted his tentacles toward

29
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: his face so he could see what was poking him

30
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:57,200
Speaker 1: from inside his cave. He thought that maybe some crabs

31
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: had scuttled in while he went out for lunch, but

32
00:02:00,320 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 1: they were much too large. He focused his humongous eyes

33
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:10,040
Speaker 1: on the two creatures in his clutches, scuba divers.

34
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,840
Speaker 2: How did you find my cave?

35
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 1: He boomed at Enzo and Nova. Bubbles angrily escaped from

36
00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 1: his beak as he spoke.

37
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:30,000
Speaker 2: We didn't know it was your cave, Nova squeaked. We

38
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,000
Speaker 2: really didn't. We only went in for the.

39
00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:39,600
Speaker 1: Treasure, and so added treasure, shouted the Kraken. He saw

40
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: the gold and jewels in their arms.

41
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 2: That's my treasure.

42
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,560
Speaker 1: Jimmy the Kraken flipped his tentacles around, turning Enzo and

43
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: Nova upside down, trying to shake the treasure. Loose, gold

44
00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 1: coins and some jewels fell, but they held on tight

45
00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:06,600
Speaker 1: to the rest. Let go of my treasure, Jimmy shouted,

46
00:03:07,160 --> 00:03:09,120
Speaker 1: put us down first.

47
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 2: And Zo shouted back.

48
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: He didn't want to risk giving up the treasure and

49
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 1: still being kept as the kraken's pet. Jimmy, the kraken

50
00:03:19,040 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 1: stopped shaking the scuba divers and released them from his sections.

51
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,680
Speaker 1: But instead of staying and dropping the treasure.

52
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 2: They began to swim away fast. Let's get out of here,

53
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:38,200
Speaker 2: yelled Nzo. Swim faster, shrieked Nova. The scuba divers swam

54
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:41,960
Speaker 2: as fast as their flippers could carry them. They raced

55
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 2: through the seaweed, under schools of fish, and over colorful coral.

56
00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:49,280
Speaker 2: The whole way.

57
00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:54,000
Speaker 1: The arms and tentacles of the kraken chased right behind them,

58
00:03:54,280 --> 00:03:57,360
Speaker 1: grabbing at their flippers and just missing.

59
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 2: He's gonna catch us. Come on, let's just give him

60
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:06,480
Speaker 2: back his treasure, yelled Nova. No way, it's not his,

61
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,200
Speaker 2: it's lost fire and treasure, shouted Enzo. Where does a

62
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 2: craken get golden crowns and cups from anyway? Nova thought

63
00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 2: Enzo made a good point, but they couldn't keep swimming forever.

64
00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: I'm getting tired.

65
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:27,080
Speaker 2: Hey, he's gonna catch us sooner or later. Just go

66
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:28,080
Speaker 2: a little further.

67
00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 1: I have a plan. They kept swimming until they reached

68
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 1: the coral reef where they first entered the water. Coral

69
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 1: of all shapes and sizes bloomed from the sandy ocean floor.

70
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: There was long, twisty coral coral arches and loops, just

71
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,960
Speaker 1: enough twists and turns to possibly trap the tentacles of

72
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:58,400
Speaker 1: a treasure chasing kraken hide in the coral. Nova told

73
00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,520
Speaker 1: Enzo Enzo, don't behind a spiky ball of coral. While

74
00:05:02,640 --> 00:05:08,160
Speaker 1: Nova hid behind some coral branches. Thin seconds, Jimmy, the

75
00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,480
Speaker 1: kraken's long arms began to wind through the coral wreath,

76
00:05:11,880 --> 00:05:19,400
Speaker 1: searching for them. I know you're in their little scuba divers.

77
00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: One of Jimmy's tentacles curled around the coral branches in

78
00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,800
Speaker 1: front of Nova and reached for her flipper. The other

79
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:32,160
Speaker 1: tentacle floated over the spiky coral ball hiding and so ah.

80
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:37,679
Speaker 1: They screamed and began to swim around wildly. They zipped

81
00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:40,720
Speaker 1: in and out of the coral forest with all eight

82
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:47,560
Speaker 1: of Jimmy's arms following them. Then Jimmy growled in anger

83
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:54,480
Speaker 1: and his tentacles were no longer chasing them. They snuck

84
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 1: a peek and saw that.

85
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:59,680
Speaker 2: His legs were knotted and tied throughout the coral in

86
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 2: a big tangled mess.

87
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: Enzo and Nova swam up to get a better view,

88
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: coming face to face with the kraken's large eyes.

89
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,719
Speaker 2: Give me back my treasure.

90
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:19,440
Speaker 1: He yelled angrily. It's not your treasure, it's lost pirate treasure,

91
00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 1: enso said. Jimmy's large eyes squinted grumpily as he tried

92
00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 1: to untangle himself and pull his legs loose. I'll get

93
00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 1: used scuba divers. Enzo and Nova didn't waste another moment.

94
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,560
Speaker 1: They swam away as fast as they could. As they

95
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 1: reached the surface, Enzo turned back one more time and

96
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:45,320
Speaker 1: saw the kraken had untangled two tentacles and was stretching

97
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: them up as high as he could reach.

98
00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 2: Drive.

99
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 1: They shrieked to the boat captain as they climbed aboard.

100
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: The boat drove and sped over the waves and didn't

101
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,039
Speaker 1: stop until they reached the dock. Enzo and Nova got

102
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 1: out of the boat and sat down on the beach

103
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 1: holding the treasure. They looked out toward the ocean. Could

104
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,239
Speaker 1: have sworn they saw tentacles poking out of the surface

105
00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: in the distance before disappearing once.

106
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 2: More the end. Wow, do you think you would be

107
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:23,200
Speaker 2: brave enough to go on a scuba diving adventure, go

108
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:27,720
Speaker 2: inside of a cave, and then take treasure from a kraken?

109
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 2: I don't know. I don't know. That's pretty pretty intense.

110
00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:36,360
Speaker 1: But Wow, I'm excited about Enzo and Nova because even

111
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 1: though this story may be over, I think it's just

112
00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: the beginning of their amazing, brave adventures that lie ahead

113
00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:53,160
Speaker 1: the end. Great job, you listened all the way to

114
00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 1: the end, and you know what domin is. It's time

115
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,240
Speaker 1: for could shout out. I want to say it to

116
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:04,440
