Current Audiobook Podcasts:
- The Brothers Grimm Lunch Break – Unfortunately, this podcast does not read all 250 original Grimm fairytales (he stops at chapter 116 of The Complete Fairy Tales of the Brothers Grimm published by Bantam), but I enjoy the man’s voice, so after I complete his podcast I’ll probably borrow the book and finish it on my own.
