    The Dragon King's Plea | Journey to the West Part 17 | ABC Storytime

    In this episode, the Jing River Dragon King tries to avoid Heaven's wrath and we sleepily discuss the new video game based on Journey to the West - Black Myth Wukong. We will be switching to a monthly upload schedule for a while because.... well, if you listen to the episode, you'll know why. ⁠ABC Storytime on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow along with translation antics⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Music by @mssolfegge

    Erlang Shen | Journey to the West Part 11 | ABC Storytime

    The Jade Emperor's nephew, Erlang Shen, is brought to have a battle of transformations with Sun Wukong. It seems that he is still not quite powerful enough to capture the Monkey King, but maybe the founder of Daoism can help? *Our conversation afterwards contains a few words not appropriate for younger listeners that we did not censor. Apologies, parents! We were tired. ⁠⁠ABC Storytime on Instagram⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠Follow along with translation antics⁠⁠⁠ Music by @mssolfegge
