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.

Hey friends, it's mister jim Man. Welcome back to Kit Short Stories. If this is your first time, welcome to the family. We are the podcast that turns your ideas into an amazing adventure every single day. You know, we couldn't even exist without imaginations from kids just like you. So if you have an idea for a story, I'd love to see it. Check down in the show notes below for how you can submit your own story idea and maybe we'll turn it into an awesome adventure. And parents, if you're new to kids podcasting, I'm gonna challenge you to listen to podcasting for five days in a row with your kids. It's going to increase their imagination, decrease screen time, and we're gonna have a lot of fun along the way. Are you guys ready for today's adventure? Me too, Let's go. Quincy and Reese love to sail their boat out on the ocean. They would float along, spotting sea birds above and colorful fish below. Whoa look at that one? Rhese pointed to a pelican who was swooping down and scooping ocean water into its beak, hoping to catch a tasty treat. And that one over there, Quincy chimed in, waving towards a heron standing tall in the shallow water. They were both scanning the water around them, and they caught sight of what they had been waiting for, a whale spout. Do you know what a whale spot is? Yeah? Water was shooting out of the ocean and into the air ahead of them from a whale's blowhole. So cool. Another whale spouted out a stream of water beside it, then another, then another. This is amazing, re shouted. These kids were in awe. It looked like a splash pad out on the ocean, with streams of water sprang all around them. Splash pads are really cool, but can you imagine a whale splash pad? Whoa? Then all this water spouts stopped at the same time. You were not prepared for what was going to happen next. Did something startle the whales? Quincy wondered aloud, Why did they all stop blowing their water? As if in response directly to Quincy's question, the most amazing whales spout began right in front of them. It was glittering and shimmering and shot so much higher than all the others had it looked like the most sparkly water they'd ever seen. In fact, it was so sparkly, I don't think that was water. Only one thing that sparkly and shiny and shimmery. It's glitter, shouted Reese. This glitter fountain rain back down into the water, glitter spreading out and creating a wonderful shimmer on the surface before disappearing. Reese and Quincy scrambled to the edge of their boat to see what magnificent creature had shot glitter out. Quincy spotted at first, there it is there, it is, I see it. He was pointing under the boat, where Reese looked and caught a glimpse of a black tail with a sparkling rainbow underside, slipping out of sight. They both immediately ran to the other side of the boat. A big black head with rainbow markings came into view. Then it turned and smiled at them. Both Quincy and Reese were were too stunned to speak. Which That's how I would feel if this glitter shooting whale was under my boat? What about you? This rainbow orca who shoots glitter was smiling at them? Was this a dream? Quincy pinched, himself, and Reese just to be sure, did the same out. Ooh, that kind of hurt. Nope, not a dream, said Quincy. The rainbow Orca was still peeking out from under the boat, swimming in place. It began to blow a glittery bubble out of its blowhole. The bubble broke the surface and continued to grow and grow, heading towards Quincy and Reese. It was so beautiful Quincy had to touch it. The moment his finger touched the bubble, Wait, it didn't pop, oh dere, and sucked him inside the bubble. Quincy Reese ran towards the bubble and tried to pull Quincy back out, but the bubble grew and grew and sucked Reese into Oh dear. Now both kids were stuck inside of this glittery bubble, and it was lifting them up out of the water into the air over the boat and oh spoosh, splashed down under the water. The rainbow Orca was waiting for them. Hi. There, I seem to have scared all the whales away. I was just looking for someone to play with. Then I found you two. The orca was so friendly. Quincy and Reese weren't afraid at all, and this bubble they were inside of was actually pretty neat. Hi rainbow orca names Hi, I'm Quincy. Uh, we'll play with you. Oh sweet seals. That makes me so happy to hear. The whale shot glitter again out of its blowhole, this time in the water all around them. He was so excited to have found someone to play with. Okay, hold on tight, warned the whale. It put its tail under the bubble and tossed them up and up end up. Whoa reason? Quincy were sailing up to the surface of the water and into the air. Hi can see everything from my beer, rees, shouted to Quincy. Then they landed back into the water with a splash and floated back down to the whale. Reyese loved it, but Quincy looked a little seasick. He tried to distract the orca, asking hey, so, oh wow, so where do you come from? I've never seen a rainbow orca? Are there others like you? Oh? My pod, that's a great idea. Let me show you where the other rainbow orcas live. The orca got behind their bubble and pushed it along with its nose, zooming through the water faster than any sea creature the two kids had ever seen. Wow. They dodged whales who were moving along very slowly. Oh, and schools a fish scattered as they dashed past. The orca tossed them up and over. Wants uh to avoid a shark? Oh. The orca began to slow its pace, and a beautiful coral reef came into view. This is my home. The orca swam proudly, waving its fins all around, showing them everything. There were sea urchins in every color, imaginable neon, glowing jellyfish floated past. Wow, and even they leaved a glittering trail of glitter. Ah. This is beautiful. Wow. Where's uh? Where are the other orcas? Asked Reese. The orca began to click some sounds like this. Do you know how to click your tongue on the roof of your mouth? Yeah, that's sometimes how whales sometimes talk to each other. Reese and Quincy heard clicks and whistles from all around the reef, replying to their orca friend. The water shimmered ahead as more orcas came into view. All were black with beautiful rainbow markings. They all smiled as they saw Quincy and Reese. Oooh humans, Hello, they're little fellas. The orcas each smiled and waved their fins in greeting. Reese and Quincy's bubble floated around to each of them to say hello. They spent the rest of the day playing underwater with the rainbow Orca pod. They were all unique in their own way. Some could blow bubbles, others could make glitter shapes. Can I have a glitter octopus? Asked Quincy. An Orca made him one and it popped into their bubble. Another made glitter rainbows they shot all around them. It was truly magical. Can you imagine being underwater swimming with orca whales and all this glittering bubble fun. Wow, it's starting to get dark, though, Reese told the orcas. The Orca looked up and saw the sun setting. Oh no, no, no, I lost track of time. Let's get you back to your boat. The Orca raced them back through the water to where their boat was still floating. The bubble they were inside of rose up, up and up and popped right above the boat, perfectly dropping Quincy and Reese back aboard. Bye Orca, Thank you, Quincy shouted, as both him and Reese waved, the Orca waved back as out in the distance, glitter fireworks exploded in the sky above the ocean. Wow. Even though that's the end of their Orca glitter adventure, Wow, I'm pretty sure this is not gonna be the last time they go in the ocean looking for their glitter whale friends. The end, We'll be right back after a brief word from our sponsor. Great job, you listened all the way to the end, and you know what time it is. It's time Fortune shout out. So wanna say hey to Toby from Australia, Ezra from Ontario, Canada, James from Ontario, Canada, Hazel from Arkansas, Coal from Utah, Jeb from Illinois, Martin from Florida, and Rocky from Portland, Oregon. I'm so glad that you're all in the kit Chart Stories family. We could not have this much fun with imagination without you, my friends. Well, I hope you have a super duber day and I'll see you on your next adventure. Bye.
