The Art of Storytelling with Brother Wolf

Thank you, Eric Wolf, for the opportunity to eavesdrop on your conversations with such remarkable people. It feels like being part of a conversation between master craftspeople, at the peak of their skill and talent. Spending some time in their company can only help to turn every listener into a better storyteller.

But I love this podcast. I started listening for the stories, but stayed for the amazing insights that have enriched my life in all sorts of ways. So much practical information for people who want to start storytelling, too! Definitely try it out. Hope he comes back, in the meantime, I'm re-listening to back episodes.

Awesome! An interview with Tim Tingle!? He taught my Storytelling class for the University of Oklahoma's travel study program in Santa Fe. I loved every minute of this trip with him as our captain. I am so looking forward to listening to this.

What a joy to be able to hear from experienced storytellers - their journeys and their 'take' on what directions storytelling may take. For an emerging storyteller living in a rural setting with little access or opportunity to see live professional storytellers, these podcasts are truly a gift. My understanding of what storytelling can and does mean has greatly expanded by listening to these wonderful shows. I travel with the Brother Wolf podcasts, and it certainly makes the trip shorter and mor... more

This podcast is amazing. Every aspect and take on storytelling application, theory and practice is covered from all sorts of angels. Just when you think there is no more orginal and diffint ways to talk about storytelling - Brother Wolf finds another guest.

I just began listening but have found I learn something new with each podcast. I think Eric has given us a treasure of of experience and talent. Thanks for your investment of time and energy to bring great storytellers to us.

I cannot give enough laud and praise to "The Art of StoryTelling". When I decided to look at storytelling as more than just a hobby, Eric Wolf and his assorted guests made up the piecemeal apprenticeship to introduce me to the big names and show me the ropes a bit. Guests cover a wide variety of techniques, ranging from traditional tellers to a psychiatrist personalizing folk tales as part of therapy. I am impressed with the unique insight each guest brings. I never fail to learn something new a... more

Once upon a time, there were three little problems in the global storytelling community: What stories do we tell? How can we tell our stories better? Who can help us support each other? When along came Brother Wolf who licked his chops and said, 'I'd like to sink my teeth into that!' So he invited the most delicious storytellers he could find and cooked up the podcasting feast that is 'The Art of Storytelling with Brother Wolf.' Want to live happily ever after?

This podcast has such value to new storytellers. I have wanted to be one for many years, but have limited myself to local schools and family parties. What a great wealth of knowledge I am gaining everyday. Now if he could just give me courage!

This is a podcast that is both broad and deep. It's practical, but in a way that allows the universal and even philosophical truths to be made known. It's also very engaging and very friendly. Brother Wolf is an amazing guy, and his guests are amazing, too!

Eric came to the camp I go to in June, and he made it even more fun, I hope he comes next year. Peace out eric, this is Zack!

Every time I listen to the podcast I come away with something that improves the quality of my storytelling!

I am new to storytelling and I luckily stumbled onto Eric's podcast. This show is a one-stop for hearing from the best storytellers about how to tell stories. I wanted to learn how to tell stories to my newborn son when he gets a bit older, and I am learning that an a whole lot more from this podcast. What I love most about this show now, after hearning a lot of shows, is that there are many guests who engage students and audiences in social issues and character development through stories.

Eric Wolf's podcast invites superlatives but they seem beside the point. His show is just so good that words like amazing and excellent are weak. Educators from every discipline and thinkers of any stripe will find will find food that is truly nourishing in the words nd conversations collected here. I often listen to some podcasts more than once to get all the goodness out. Thank you Eric for this fabulous work.
