    My daughter Madison has been listening to this podcast for well over a year and absolutely loves the show and characters Jonathan plays so well. Keep up the good work Jodi and crew, I give this one 5 out of 5 stars!
  • MargerineDog
    Delightful!
    This podcast is delightful! The stories are fun, silly, and addictive in the best way possible. I love that female characters are written with the same amount of bravery, heroism, and wit as the male characters, and my jaw actually fell open once I figured out exactly how many voices Jonathan flawlessly brings to life at once. Definitely one that my kids and I will enjoy for many years to come.
  • m.winner

  • Potato Lady Bex
    Fun for the Whole Family
    With its simple premise and goofy characters, it can make a boring car ride more interesting. There are a few jokes adults will get thrown in, and you can tell a lot of passion and dedication go on behind the scenes.

  • Dominic Spillane
    Love it!
    This whole concept is spot on! I love the fun retelling of the classic tales, and the hidden history episodes are fantastic - I'm certainly learning a lot! More importantly, my kids love them. I can hear my son laughing from the other room. Jonathan is an excellent performer. This is a super fun podcast for kids and grown ups.

  • Monique Hafen Adams
    What fun!!
    Truly a delight from start to finish!
  • Kelly from Kelly's Classroom
    My students will love it!
    I'm an elementary school teacher and am always on the lookout for new ways to integrate stories and storytelling into the school day. I listened to a few episodes of Dorktales Storytime Podcast and thought it'd be something my students might like. Sometimes we get those quiet moments during the school day in which the students are working on art projects or other craftivities and I turn on some soft music or an audiobook. I'd be curious to see what would happen if I were to turn on one of these episodes instead? Will my students will enjoy these episodes like I did? I think they will!
  • CosEve
    Amazing, The Name is Dorktales Storytime
    I love the rich content of these podcasts. Some are humerous and some are factual, but they are all wholeheartedly interesting and I look forward to each new one. Good fun for the whole family packed into one trip to a soccer game!
  • Crafty Moms Share
    So fun and great twists!
    Ready for some fun? Grab the kids because they will love this. Dorktales shares new twists on classic tales as well as some historical people that you may not have heard of. The voices are so fun and pull the listeners in. You and your kids will love listening to these and story telling is one of the forgotten arts of our times. Make sure you subscribe so you can get the new ones as they come. You will not regret it!
  • Eugenia Chu
    Fun podcast for kids!
    So much fun! Love the character voices and the twist on the classics! Great to put on to entertain the littles during car rides, when you need time to get your own stuff done, before bed . . . really any time! And you grownups will get a kick out of listening, too! I did!
  • Courtney Messick
    Fun for kids of all ages!
    This is one that your kids will love! Fun storytelling for sure. Worth checking out.
  • strongerdog
    Great fun!
    Jonathan is amazing! His character voiced sucked me into the story. I was going to go on a bike ride but couldn’t stop listening....
  • Hipster 15
    Great podcast for all ages
    Interesting and entertaining. I really liked the hidden heroes of history.
  • Scott Dedoes
    Entertaining for kids and adults
    Started listening to these stories while driving. They are humorous takes on classics stories. The variety of different voices keeps it interesting for my 3 year old and is funny as well. Keeps me entertained so I don’t have to worry about either of us getting bored. There was one were Jonathan’s hedgehog character’s laughing had my son cracking up and that was amazing. Made long drive go by faster and stands out among other stories that are all so similar.
