Audio Appetizer: Setting the Fable

“Look before you leap.” “Slow and steady wins the race.” “Sour grapes.” These famous sayings all come from fables: short stories that convey a useful lesson, often through talking animals or other nonhuman entities. While some of the oldest fables hail from India and Greece, these tight little teaching tales have been told the world over. Listen to this week’s audio appetizer to find out why… and to learn how they relate to fancy mushrooms, Steven Spielberg, and Bingo the dog!
