Please & Thank You Adventures with Jolly Junker, Polly, and Rexie

Green Guardian

This kids podcast was made with Jellypod — where you create the story " the hosts. Now let's jump into the first episode of Timmy Time. A podcast hosted by two super heroes - the trash truck loving "Green Guardian" and the rhino expert "The Tuskman".

Green Guardian

Okay, so picture this: a garbage truck named Jolly Junker—bright green, with big googly eyes painted on the front, and a smile so wide it practically wraps around the whole truck.

The Tuskman

Oh, oh! Does he have a horn that honks like a laugh? Like, "Ha-haaa!"

Green Guardian

Exactly! But, poor Jolly Junker—he’s feeling a little down. You see, every week he drives through the streets, lifting bins, crunching up trash, but...no one ever says, “Thank you!”

The Tuskman

What? No way! Not even a “Hey, nice job, Jolly!” or a “Wow, thanks for keeping our neighborhood clean!”

Green Guardian

Nope, not even that. And, you know, it’s not like Jolly expects presents or fan mail. He just wants to know he’s appreciated for all the hard work he does.

The Tuskman

I mean, who doesn’t wanna feel appreciated, right? I, I’d totally do a happy dance if someone cheered me on while I was, like, scrubbing up garbage juice or something.

Green Guardian

Exactly. And here’s what’s really cool—when someone says “thank you,” it’s like giving their day a little boost, like a cheer-up turbo charge! It’s such a simple thing, but it makes a huge difference.

The Tuskman

Whoa, like giving them mega energy—“Tank full, ready to roll!”

Green Guardian

Yep, you got it! And Jolly Junker’s favorite thing? When kids wave at him or shout, “Thanks, Jolly!” as he rolls by. It’s like his tires grow wings.

The Tuskman

Wait, does he actually get wings? Because that’d be the coolest garbage truck ever. Like, “Whoosh! Trash, be gone!”

Green Guardian

Not quite, but he does feel like he’s flying, knowing he’s doing something good for everyone. And it’s not just Jolly—there are so many community helpers we can brighten up with a little thank you. Garbage drivers like Jolly, mail carriers, firefighters...

The Tuskman

Don’t forget crossing guards! Oh man, they’re like superheroes keeping everyone safe. We should totally give them a high-five and a big “Thank you!” every time we see them.

Green Guardian

Exactly. It’s the easiest way to spread joy, don’t you think? Just two little words: Thank you.

The Tuskman

And maybe a smile too. Smiles are like the cherry on top of saying thanks.

Green Guardian

Totally! And that’s why it’s so important to remember to say those magic words. You might just make someone’s whole week.

The Tuskman

Oh, speaking of saying thank you, this reminds me of a story about Polly the Polite Rhino. You’re gonna love it—it’s all about her learning the power of those two little words. Ready for it?

Green Guardian

Oh, this is one of my favorites! Polly’s such a star at the zoo, isn’t she?

The Tuskman

Totally! So, last weekend, Timmy here was playing mini-golf, right? And things got a liiittle... well, let’s just say, intense.

Green Guardian

Oh no! Did Timmy hit one of those frustrating patches?

The Tuskman

Big time! He missed the shot, and he was all like, “I quit!” But wait for it—guess who inspired him to chill and try again?

Green Guardian

Let me guess: Polly the Polite Rhino?

The Tuskman

Bingo! Polly’s whole deal is staying calm, using kind words, and trying again. You should’ve seen him—he took a deep breath, went back to his golf ball, and nailed the shot! Boom! Polly would’ve been proud.

Green Guardian

That’s amazing, Timmy! You know, it takes a lot of patience and kindness to do that. Polly would definitely give you a big rhino smile for that one. So, what’s Polly's secret to staying so cool and polite?

The Tuskman

Oh, I know this one! It’s her “magic words.” She never forgets to say “please” and “thank you,” no matter how tricky the day is.

Green Guardian

Exactly! And Polly’s favorite motto? “The Rhinos Roll with Please and Thanks!”

The Tuskman

Ugh, now I have the song stuck in my head! You know the one—“Roll, roll, roll with please and thanks! Oh yeah, oh yeah!”

Green Guardian

That’s the one! Hey Timmy, have you ever used kind words like Polly to help a friend—or maybe to make yourself feel better when something was tough at school?

The Tuskman

Yeah, like, have you ever said “thank you” to someone, and it totally turned their frown upside-down? Or maybe you helped a friend and they were all like, “Wow, you’re the best!”

Green Guardian

Speaking of kind words, Timmy, imagine this: Rexie the T-Rex, the kindest, most polite dinosaur ever, stomping into your class. But instead of roaring, he's saying “please” and “thank you” to everyone. How cool would that be?

The Tuskman

“Pleeeease pass the crayons!” Ha! Can you picture it?

Green Guardian

Exactly! And today, Rexie’s on a mission—he’s teaching everyone how dinosaurs used their best dino-manners to keep their picnics fun and chaos-free. No rawr-splosions allowed!

The Tuskman

Oh, oh! Let me guess—does he remind them to say “thank you” for the pterodactyl sandwiches? Or “excuse me” when the brontosaurus tail accidentally bumps into someone’s picnic blanket?

Green Guardian

You got it! And Rexie always says, “When you use kind words, it keeps a herd—uh, I mean, a group—happy and safe.”

The Tuskman

Whoa, that’s genius! I mean, nobody wants a picnic where the velociraptors are fighting over the last cupcake, right?

Green Guardian

Totally. Rexie even has a special chant to help everyone remember. “Dinos who roar, hold the door!” It’s catchy, right?

The Tuskman

Catchy? I’m, I’m already roaring it in my head! “Dinos who roar, hold the door!”

Green Guardian

And here’s the best part—Rexie says that using kind words doesn’t just help the picnic—it makes your heart feel like it grew three dino-sizes. Just like Timmy felt when he apologized and kept trying at mini-golf!

The Tuskman

Oh yeah, Timmy totally nailed that, by the way. You’re basically a manners superstar!

Green Guardian

So Timmy, and all our listeners out there, have you used your “please” and “thank you” today? If you have, we wanna hear about it! Tell us your story—maybe it’ll be featured on the podcast!

The Tuskman

Yeah! Did saying “thank you” help you make a friend? Or maybe “please” got you an extra cookie? Send us a recording, and who knows—you could be our next dino-manners hero!

Green Guardian

And with that, we’ll wrap it up for today. Remember, “please” and “thank you” aren’t just magic words—they’re your ticket to making the world a kinder, better place.

The Tuskman

Totally. So, until next time, keep roaring your best roars—

Green Guardian

—and saying your best “thank yous!”

The Tuskman

See you later, alligators!
