366. CK #12: Raggor Ruin and the Secret City

Author: Eric O'Keeffe / Starglow Media September 1, 2025 Duration: 21:19
On their way to save Scribno, our adventurers are stopped by Raggor Ruin, a monstrous behemoth made of Fast Fashion Clothing. Can they escape his fibrous clutches and complete their mission? Lessons include: To help save our planet, we can all buy fewer clothes; big feelings need to be shared before they overwhelm us. This story is part of a Guilds & Goblins campaign, where What If World characters (and guests) play an original tabletop RPG for kids and families. Real-life dice rolls, usually with a 20-sided die, help us tell the story, along with your questions. Listen to episodes 327-328, 330-331, 341-342, 344-345, 354-355, & 365, Cryptid Kids #1 to #11, to start from the beginning!  Please Subscribe and show your Support!

Curiosity begins with a simple question, and What If World-Stories for Kids turns those questions into delightful, original adventures. Hosted by Mr. Eric, this podcast spins the wild and wonderful "what if" ideas sent in by young listeners into full-length audio stories. Each episode is a journey into a uniquely crafted universe where anything is possible, blending gentle comedy with heartfelt moments that families can enjoy together. The magic lies in its collaborative spirit-the stories are directly inspired by the imaginative queries of children, making every narrative a surprise. Parents and caregivers are invited to submit their own child's puzzling or playful scenario, which might just become the spark for the next tale. Through these engaging fictions, the show naturally encourages creative thinking and a resilient, problem-solving spirit. Tuning in means entering a space where a question about dinosaurs eating pizza or a cloud made of jelly can unfold into a memorable, character-driven plot. It’s more than just a story time podcast; it’s an interactive celebration of a child’s perspective, lovingly produced by Eric O'Keeffe and Starglow Media. The result is a consistently charming and funny listen that respects the intelligence and wonder of its young audience, one "what if" at a time.
