PODCASTS – MYTHS AND FOLKTALES

Volunteer readers tell some chosen myths and legends. Click on a story and sit back and relax to listen for a few minutes.

Looking for volunteers who read aloud one or more of the myths below, record each to a file (mp3, wav, ogg or m4a) and send it to me. I’ll add it here (like it is done in the German section). The idea of it is, for a short time, to distract the minds from Corona information. If you volunteer, please contact me to let me send you one .TXT file (or more).
