I know this! That's the Razzle Flabbens! We have a few of those cassettes somewhere! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jungle_Jam_and_Friends:_The_Radio_Show!
I'd tell you about myself but then I'd have to, well, not kill you, but you'd end up on an island, exactly 140/260 Latitude 10/260 Longitude

That's the one! Thanks!
This was around ten years ago, maybe a little less. My mom always put these cassettes on in the car (think 'Adventures in Odyssey'). They had stories about this kid who for whatever reason didn't have a great life at school or in his family, and he would dream about this land filled with talking animals that taught him lessons about whatever. He always reached this place by having some water-filled object in his room suddenly overflow (I remember the author explicitly using the word 'gushing' excessively) and his room filling up with water. He would wake up on his bed on a beach in this animal land. I don't remember much about the characters but one of them was a coyote who was insistent on his name being pronounced 'koy-oh-tay'. They would also always read the phone number at the end of the tape and had some jokes about the number ending with '0000'. It may or may not have had a religious slant.
