Slavic Fairy Tales

Just delighted with having found this podcast. It's beautiful and very well done.

Listen to this show, and you won’t be disappointed. The stories from all the different Slavic countries are the best of the best. And the interpretations at the end are great, too. I listen to this show with my 5-year old daughter, and we both love it. It’s the perfect combo of storytelling and learning; great for kids, adults, anyone. Really well done.

Loved the recent episode on Reygoch, the Croatian giant. Learning so much about Slavic folklore from this show. Would love to hear more tales from the Balkans!!

Slavic Fairy Tales is really just incredible. The stories are told with fervor, intensity - Rhea really delves into the role of the different characters, whether they be heroine, villain, or Baba Yaga! Perfect for kids, looking to fall asleep or listen to something interesting, or even to adults, looking to learn more about a new culture, in the spirit of open-mindedness (so important in these times...). The cultural context piece at the end of each episode is thorough and well-done; that’s where listeners can really learn about how each tale was received in the greater culture, how it manifests in art, opera, music, etc. Overall, I feel like, despite the niche topic, Rhea can appeal to just about anybody... 11/10 recommend!
