Beautifully Told Stories
Huge treat from someone whose heart is in her stories. Eileen has a beautiful voice for this work. Thank you for this experience. 🙏
Fascinating, Educational, & Thought-provoking
Eileen is such a wonderfully talented person, and you can tell how knowledgeable and passionate she is about her subject matter. I find it difficult to get absorbed in most podcasts, but this is soothing and familiar. It reminds me keenly of radio dramas I listened to as a child. I am thrilled to have found something that is both intellectually stimulating and culturally enlightening
