Subject: [Puptcrit] Audio inspiration while you work


Recent talks on puptcrit about adapting fairy tales to puppet shows, and how 
growing up on fairy tales can shape someone's mind, brought me to seek 
online sources of fairy tales and traditional stories.
I like audiobooks while I work because they don't distract me visually, and 
make other parts of my mind work while I can still focus on the work in my 
hands.
Time sure flies that way, and even the least desirable steps are perfomed 
without any frustration.

I found this source yesterday, and have been listening to many tales while 
building some puppets.

It's a podcast about celtic stories and traditions (including music and 
historical facts).
The episodes I've been listening to are about the origins of Ireland.
Fascinating!
The stories are Epic and magical. The voices are all good, they even do 
various accents and personalities. The hosts are really passionate about the 
field. The playlist from the link above works backwards (from more recent to 
less recent), for some reason.
So start at the bottom, and click upwards for the true next episode.
