About this listen

Telling Simple is a barebones storytelling podcast. This podcast contains North American tales that somebody at some time said were true, or at least they wanted us to believe they were true. These stories are stripped down to their barebones, retold in a storytelling style, and seasoned with a little wit and humor. Plus, you may find the truth stretched a bit. It takes a lot of digging to find a story from the past that is worth retelling. And I hope you find these stories worth a listen. Hope you enjoy.© 2022 Storytelling: Telling Simple (bare-bones style) Art Entertainment & Performing Arts World
