Storytellers from all around the world join us to tell their favourite tales. Join us for tales of wonder, might, magic, folklore and history as we head to every corner of the earth, every period in history and even into the otherworlds.
This week, Simona and Alan are joined by Elena Asciutti in Sicily, Italy, to talk about her life in storytelling. From talking part in Radio Cavolo and hosting a programme Diffusione Fiaba to FEAST Mentorships promoting storytelling and the love of stories.
Of course we are also treated to a tale at the end which we all loved hearing after a wonderful chat.
Enjoy!

Silky Selkies and London's Burning!
In this two part episode we decided to use the four elements of the earth for a bit of storytelling fun - water, fire, earth and wind. So this week, we take one each and find a story to tell, before next week, completing the four.
Today's episode has Alan telling us about a Selkie who isn't having a great time on the Antrim coast, while Simona tells us about the Fire of London.
Enjoy!
