  • Stories for adults

    Who knew I needed to hear stories being told as an adult!? This podcast takes me back to be a child and having stories read to me. A sheer delight. Joe creates the landscape and all the characters just by reading aloud. Liek a great storyteller. The meaning making half of each episode is rich with opportunities for reflection. A must listen
