About this listen

 Hello everyone! As of July 16th, 2020, I became a father. My wife and I began reading to our son, Sebastien, a couple months before he was born. During that time I developed the idea of creating audio recording for him of fairy tales and mythology, and other books that I would have liked to have read as a child, or at least had exposure to, that I kinda missed. I support creation of the Podcast with Patreon, so please find me there under the same name!

    Greetings! I realize I'm quite late with this post, but this week I created literally 10 times more podcast than previous weeks. There are two news segments to this podcast, and 2 entirely new podcasts beside. The first new segment is an exploration of medieval architecture and places called "Castles and Cathedrals," and the second is an exploration of mythological and fantastical beings, called "I'd Like to Speak to the Menagerie." Also, I've added an update by providing time stamps! I realize centuries old stories aren't really in need of spoiler alerts, but since there are multiple segments now, I figure this would make it easier for the listener!

    Hello everyone! We are on track for regular Friday upload. I'm glad you could join us today for two of the more famous fairy tales. Also, on Patreon, I have chosen two more books to record for subscribers - a collection of Aesop's Fables, and The Heroes of Asgard, an introduction to Norse Mythology. There are plenty more beyond this, but working on 3 different books per week is about what I can muster! Thank you for being here! I look forward to reading for you soon.

    Good morning everyone! Here is the 5th upload for today. My goal is to do at least 3 episodes per week, and each episode will feature at least 10 minutes of actual story. The next episode, in fact, will feature two stories - and two very well known stories at that. But, until then, is is a story I'd never heard!
