As busy parents bedtime is often the only quality time we get to spend with our kids, so we've always tried to make the best of it by reading books, talking, or listening to songs and other stories. There are a lot of great fictional stories out there that we enjoy, but I realized there is a lot of fun with true stories as well. I started telling the history and my own stories, making them into short, enjoyable tales for my kids. My goal in this podcast is to share these stories with others and we hope you enjoy them, too.MORE Host Breck LeSueur

I realized that lots of kids are missing out on centuries of compounded wisdom embedded within these stories. Stories based on Indian history, culture, and heritage. Through this podcast, I aim to tell these stories to the world.MORE Producer/Network Priyal Jain
