About this episode

In this Halloween special, Audra and Sloane share interesting and educational ER stories that teach kids about safety.

It’s Halloween week — and Sloane has an idea! 👻 This time, she convinces Mom to share some of her “scary” stories from the ER. Don’t worry — these stories aren’t too scary, but they’re definitely interesting, a little gross, and packed with lessons to keep kids safe. 💀 From fishhooks to helmets to beads (and even blood!), this episode has it all. You’ll hear: 🪝 A fishing trip gone wrong — and what happens when a fishhook ends up in someone’s cheek. 🚴‍♀️ A bike ride that turned into a real-life lesson about helmets. 💎 A bead-in-the-nose story that might sound familiar to some parents... 🩸 And finally, a not-so-spooky vampire-style story about blood transfusions and how donating blood can save lives! This Halloween, we’re mixing a few chills with a whole lot of learning. Perfect for car rides, classrooms, or cozy listening while you carve pumpkins! 🎃 Lesson Takeaways: Always listen to safety rules — they’re there for a reason! Helmets aren’t optional (even for grown-ups!) Keep small things out of noses, ears, and eyes! Donating blood can be life-saving — and your body makes more! 👩‍⚕️ Hosted by Audra (a real ER PA!) and her 8-year-old daughter Sloane 🎧 Available wherever…
