    Not so Woke
    Not much diversity in the people whose stories are being told. Superficial, skin deep narratives.
  • Lukas is cool
    Great

    Krypton and others
    Interesting story about something I knew nothing about. I won’t give away the ending! My favorite was the never ending story, but I thought the justice one, the last one , was very powerful.
  • Won't use again

    Love a great story? You will love this podcast
    I am a fan of Great Big Story’s videos. So I was curious about what their podcast would be like. Three episodes in, I’m loving it. I really like being able to listen to the stories while I walk. I also like the variety so far. Actually, that’s what I like about their videos, too. You can never really predict what kind of story you’re going to get, yet you watch every single Great Big Story and wind up thinking at the end... that was so cool, or that was surprising, or that’s a place I need to visit someday. I am enjoying the same sense of discovery with the podcast.

    So well produced!
    I’ve been watching GBS for many years so it’s exciting to hear a podcast from them. It’s so well produced and so interesting to hear stories that I may not otherwise come across. Secret code cracking, long lost music from the Bronx, and excited to see what’s to come! Great stories that open you up to the world. Thank you GBS!
