Storytellers from all around the world join us to tell their favourite tales. Join us for tales of wonder, might, magic, folklore and history as we head to every corner of the earth, every period in history and even into the otherworlds.
Just a short update on the project and podcast.
As we're both teachers, the podcast does take time, effort, energy as well as funds to host the podcast services. That's why we have launched a Buy Me A Coffee page to help pay for hosting and long term support of our project.
This is a passion project from the both of us and we're keen to continue telling tales long into the future, so give us a share far and wide!
