In this Episode we meet a folk hero of West African Origin: Anansi Spider.
He's a typical trickster character, but his plans backfire. As a result, all of mankind benefits!
As usual, I have an introduction to the podcast and the story. Then I read the full story without stopping. Next, I go back and break down any interesting vocabulary. And finally, I read the story again, without stopping. Hopefully by the second time hearing it, you understand more easily than you did the first time hearing it.
