I first found this podcast when my son was a bit younger and we still love it ! It was just what I hoped for in something to share that wasn’t over produced , I really love the cozy vibe this podcast always gives. Thanks so much!

ohsweetveggies · Mar 2025

I’m the father of three children: Rock 9-yr-old, Behr 7-yr-old, and Magnolia 5-yr-old. Along with their beautiful mother, Emily Drew, we have listened to every episode, and we listen to every new episode. We have been loyal followers since 2018, and we look forward to every Thursday for the new episode. We intend on checking out your Patreon account this week, and we’re sure that will be even better. I am a podcaster as well being a cohost of the health and fitness podcast Barbell Shrugged. I just wanted you to know from one podcast to another that you are doing an amazing job. If you would give my children a shout out, it would make their entire year. I will return the favor to the parents on my show regardless as you sincerely deserve it. Sincerely, Travis Mash and the Mash Family

Coach Travis Mash · Feb 2024

Found this podcast while searching for Irish stories around St. Patrick’s day. Narrator is fun and the stories are engaging for my hard-to-please family. The sound effects are cute and hold their attention, but they’re not distracting.

CCtheHS · Feb 2024

Hi! I’m Rillian (rhymes with “Lillian”). I’m from Virginia (USA) and I’m 6 years old. I love this podcast because it helps calm me down whenever I feel flooded and I think Kathleen Pelley’s voice is like a soothing lullaby. It is hard to think of my favorite episode, but right now, it is “The Gifts of the Grasscutter” because it has taught me how to always give gifts away to other people, and to be generous. I would love a shoutout on a future episode, if that would be possible! It would be so thrilling to hear my name on my favorite podcast. Thank you for creating this podcast, Kathleen Pelley! Will you make more stories for me?
