Sandman Stories Presents

Dustin Steichmann

Tired but can't fall asleep? Here I do my best to find interesting stories from the public domain and read them to you until you fall asleep. The stories are mostly folktales from around the world. Best listened to during work, during commutes, when you are trying to fall asleep, or any time that you need a calm friend to read to you. Enjoy!

Listen to the last episode:

#india #folktale

In the first story, a boy is rescued by a magic bull who gives him sweets. What could make him forget such a friend? In the second story, a brahmin gets greedy and loses out on riches. And in the final story, the Raja loses a bet to his wife, but then he kicks her out. What is she to do?

Podcast Shoutout: Ratchet Book Club

This is a beautiful podcast hosted by a golden voiced man. Rashanii is a national treasure.


Listener shoutout is to Machakos Kenya

This city in was founded in 1887 and was the first capital of the colony the british established in Kenya. In 1899, the british changed their colonial capital to Nairobi. The city was named after a Kamba chief who moved there from a nearby city named Sultan Hamud. And so to my Kamba speaking listener I say Ni muvea and Koma nesa. Thank you and goodnight
