What a great podcast - unwind with your kids - or just yourself with a cup of tea - pull up a chair and listen to masterful readings of older tales, introduced by the intriguing Captain Blunderface. We are getting to know a bit more about him in each episode. I love the intro music that framing this podcast.

Stories from Now and Then! How about stories from now until the car ride is over?! The kids are captivated by the voice of the storyteller as she brings them into a new world of story. Captain Blunderface is a fun addition for the grownup listening. Always look forward to his little puns at the beginning. Excellent pod!
