I wish I could make a pod cast
Thank you!
Had us go dhdurhufjrujr
Amazing voice that had me go to sleep for a month. The stories are funny, I mostly enjoy the part where someone dies or is being eaten. Jigglety jogglety
Perfect for falling asleep too (especially if you want vivid dreams lol) also, you can’t expect fairy tales to be kid friendly, i like that this didn’t sugarcoat the spooky stuff :)
Love the accent love the stories
Good calm voice, not too loud or aggressive. I find that most Librivox recordings on here are pretty bad quality (no offence), and are not narrated with a soothing voice, but this is great.
Great start for an amateur podcast. Just two people having a conversation about a common interest and some interesting opinions
Hey I know You probably don’t read these comments a lot but just in case... People get board of the same old Cinderella stories and rumplesiltskin stories do my feed back for you is to either come up with whole new stories or find interesting tales of adventure that not many people put in their podcasts also try to put in more episodes soon otherwise kids stop listening by for now your only reviewer jas15🙂
We listened to the rose tree for about a min, then the stepmother chopped her step daughters head off and removed the heart and liver....
I’m angry that we played this much for our kid, should’ve had an adult rating, FAIRY tale or not this is not ok!!!
Enjoyed these stories very much. Since they come from English lore, some have violent themes, and parents who are concerned over that may want to listen to the stories first; these are the real stories and not the sanitized versions of recent years.
The reader is one of my favorites from Librivox, and she does a wonderful job as always in bringing these stories to us.
The quality of the record is low and the narration is dull and not vivid. Definitely not what my toddler would like listen to.
