If this is your first time or you're 3 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,720 Speaker 1: still newer to our family, I want to encourage you 4 00:00:12,160 --> 00:00:16,600 Speaker 1: to try five. That's our challenge, where for five days 5 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 1: in a row, your kids listen to some awesome stories 6 00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 1: to use their imagination and watch their creativity come to life. 7 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: You see, we make stories every single day for you, 8 00:00:29,960 --> 00:00:33,040 Speaker 1: and you just never know what kind of story you're 9 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,000 Speaker 1: gonna find on any given day. So hang with me 10 00:00:36,159 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 1: for five days, whether maybe driving in the car or 11 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 1: maybe during lunchtime, and I think you're gonna find something 12 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:49,599 Speaker 1: pretty amazing happens. Well, friends, are you ready for today's adventure? 13 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:50,560 Speaker 1: Me too. 14 00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 2: Let's go. 15 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 1: Let be the leopard, get go, love to go on adventures. 16 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: He lived in a place far away, in a country 17 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:09,280 Speaker 1: called Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is a very hot country 18 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:13,760 Speaker 1: full of a giant desert. Let me lived underneath the 19 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 1: palm tree in the middle of that desert. But was 20 00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:22,120 Speaker 1: he a normal leopard gecko? No, he wasn't. He was 21 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 1: a super secret spy on our spy team. He would 22 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: have special missions that HQ would send his way. He 23 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: would have to do all crinds of crazy things. Sometimes 24 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,080 Speaker 1: he'd even have to ride a camel across the desert. 25 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,920 Speaker 1: Other times he would sneak through the dark of the 26 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:48,360 Speaker 1: night to spy on the Purple Ninjas. Well, one day 27 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:53,520 Speaker 1: he received a mission that was unlike he'd ever seen before. 28 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,640 Speaker 1: On that day, it seemed like a normal day. But boy, 29 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: oh boy, no, it wasn't. How he received messages was. 30 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,160 Speaker 1: There was a rock next to the palm tree he 31 00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 1: lived at. Every morning he would look underneath the rock. 32 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 1: There was a tiny little piece of paper with a 33 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: secret message on it, and today's message said he would 34 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,359 Speaker 1: have to travel all the way across the world. You see, 35 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 1: since Leppie was on a team with other spies, they 36 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:30,000 Speaker 1: sometimes worked together for certain missions. And all the way 37 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,000 Speaker 1: across the world was a kid on our spy team 38 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:36,519 Speaker 1: named Benny who needed a partner, so they recruited Leppie 39 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: the leper Gecko to be his teammate. Leppe had never 40 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 1: traveled that far before, and he was a little bit nervous, 41 00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:48,400 Speaker 1: but he did know how to choose to be brave. 42 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 2: He said, there's nothing that kid stabbing now, all. 43 00:02:55,639 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 1: Right, let's go, and so Leppie papped up its bags. Well, Leopard, 44 00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: get go. They don't actually have many bags. He only 45 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: had one, and so he packed up his one bag 46 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: with his socks and pajamas and a snack of crickets, 47 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 1: and off he went. He was ready for the adventure. 48 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 1: As he was walking across the desert, he had to 49 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,959 Speaker 1: be super duper careful and secret. He didn't want to 50 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 1: be seen. So we had a special plan. 51 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 2: I first have to sneak up a top of the 52 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,520 Speaker 2: cabble and ride on its underneath its ears so that 53 00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 2: no one will see me. Cabble will take me all 54 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,080 Speaker 2: the way across the desert to his ship, and I 55 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 2: could get on of the shepherds sail across the ocean 56 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:39,480 Speaker 2: to where I need to go. 57 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:44,080 Speaker 1: And that's exactly what Leppie did. He followed a map 58 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:46,960 Speaker 1: all the way to where he needed to go, and 59 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: so the spy team, they said he needed to go 60 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 1: to Benny's house. But he lived in a neighborhood. Eh. 61 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: Leppy had never been there before, and he never really 62 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 1: even been to a neighborhood before. Remember, he lived in 63 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 1: a desert. So as he entered into Benny's neighborhood, oh 64 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,360 Speaker 1: dear all. 65 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: These houses kind of look the same. How do I 66 00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 2: know which one's Betty's house? 67 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 1: Oh? Yeah, And then he remembered there's an address. 68 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 2: What was the address? Uh, it was four three zero 69 00:04:25,240 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 2: Forest Thrive. Yeah, that's it, four three zero. 70 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,679 Speaker 1: So Leppie had to look for those numbers. Four three zero. 71 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:41,600 Speaker 2: Hmmm, I don't see it. That one says four two two. Okay, 72 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 2: we must be close. Oh, there it was. 73 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 1: It was only three houses away. But then all of 74 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 1: a sudden, all the smucks, there were purple ninjas. There 75 00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:01,680 Speaker 1: were three purple ninjas right by Benny's house. They must 76 00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: have been waiting for him. Ho, they are not these guys? 77 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:10,560 Speaker 1: Hot am I got a dough. Leppie then came up 78 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: with a plan. He saw a box sitting on the 79 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 1: front step of Benny's house. Leppie remembered that in the 80 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:21,880 Speaker 1: spy kit he had, there was a special button that 81 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: he had to push when he got to Benny's door. 82 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:29,600 Speaker 1: So his idea he was gonna sneak inside the box 83 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 1: on Benny's porch so that the Purple Ninjas wouldn't see him, 84 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: and then push the button to let Benny know he 85 00:05:34,839 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: was there. 86 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 2: Oki doki, That sounds like a throppurd uper plaid hid. 87 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 1: Now what, Well, it's a good thing that Leppie was 88 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: really good camouflage. Do you know what camouflage means? Yes, 89 00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:53,719 Speaker 1: it means that he's really good at hiding and blending 90 00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:58,160 Speaker 1: in with his surroundings. And so Leppie used his awesome 91 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: camouflage and super secret sneaking to walk all the way 92 00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: to Benny's front porch without the Purple Ninjas even sing anything. 93 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,679 Speaker 1: Then he slipped right into the box that was sitting 94 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,000 Speaker 1: on Benny's front porch that would keep him safe, save 95 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 1: enough for Benny to come outside and pick it up. 96 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,440 Speaker 1: Then Lenny pushed the button. He hoped that button would 97 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: work because he never done this before. But he pushed 98 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,320 Speaker 1: the button, hoping that Benny knew that he was there. 99 00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: As he pushed that button, he waited every second that 100 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: ticked by. He was so nervous. Who's going to come 101 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: pick up the box? Is it going to be the 102 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:45,320 Speaker 1: Purple Ninjas or Benny? H oh dear? Something? Just picked 103 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 1: up the box? I hope this this Benny. The box 104 00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:53,480 Speaker 1: was carefully sat back down and opened up, and it 105 00:06:53,680 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: was Benny. Leppie had made it. And now Leppy and 106 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:03,479 Speaker 1: Benny were an new spy team, the best spy team 107 00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: in town. But what is going to happen next with 108 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 1: these two? I'm not sure. We're gonna have to wait 109 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 1: and see what happens on the next episode of Kids' 110 00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:16,400 Speaker 1: Short Stories.
