Season 2 | Ep 13 | Anansi & the Drum of Common Sense

What's common about common sense? How do we acquire them? Do we inherit or learn them? Do we share a set of common sense? Or does each one of us develop a sense that is most common and obvious to us? If these questions baffle you then today's story is for you! In this episode I retell the Jamaican version of Anansi & the Drum of Common SenseWe all need our share of common & uncommon sense. Agree? Listen to the story and share some of your uncommon stories. **** ๐™‚๐™ค๐™ก๐™ฅ๐™ค: ๐™Ž๐™ฉ๐™ค๐™ง๐™ž๐™š๐™จ ๐™›๐™ง๐™ค๐™ข ๐˜ผ๐™ง๐™ค๐™ช๐™ฃ๐™™ ๐™๐™๐™š ๐™’๐™ค๐™ง๐™ก๐™™ ๐™ž๐™จ ๐™– ๐™˜๐™ค๐™ก๐™ก๐™š๐™˜๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ ๐™ค๐™› ๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ค๐™ง๐™ž๐™š๐™จ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™–๐™ฉ ๐™˜๐™–๐™ฃ ๐™—๐™š ๐™จ๐™๐™–๐™ง๐™š๐™™ ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™ฎ๐™ฌ๐™๐™š๐™ง๐™š, ๐™ž๐™ฃ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š ๐˜พ๐™ก๐™–๐™จ๐™จ๐™ง๐™ค๐™ค๐™ข, ๐™ž๐™ฃ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š ๐™‡๐™ž๐™ซ๐™ž๐™ฃ๐™œ ๐™๐™ค๐™ค๐™ข ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™ ๐™ฉ๐™๐™š ๐˜ฝ๐™ค๐™–๐™ง๐™™๐™ง๐™ค๐™ค๐™ข. ๐™๐™๐™š ๐™จ๐™ฉ๐™ค๐™ง๐™ž๐™š๐™จ ๐™–๐™ง๐™š ๐™ข๐™š๐™–๐™ฃ๐™ฉ ๐™ฉ๐™ค ๐™ฉ๐™ง๐™ž๐™œ๐™œ๐™š๐™ง ๐™˜๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™ซ๐™š๐™ง๐™จ๐™–๐™ฉ๐™ž๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™จ ๐™–๐™ข๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™œ๐™จ๐™ฉ ๐™ฅ๐™š๐™ค๐™ฅ๐™ก๐™š.

Om Podcasten

Golpo is the Bengali word for stories. It is a curious little word, both a verb and a noun at the same time. As a child Rituparna would insist on two stories and two songs every night. She would pretend to go off to sleep testing her parents to see if they'd finish the story they started to tell. When her grandmother told her stories she would kick her legs in the air fighting sleep before it wrapped her in. Golpo, the joy of oral storytelling returned to Rituparna's life as a mother. From a visual storyteller she discovered the magic of the spoken word all over again. Now a Performance Storyteller, Trainer, Consultant & Coach Rituparna is the Founder of ** *Your Story Bag* ( http://www.yourstorybag.com ) *.* Rituparna believes that stories bridge people & telling stories creates a shared experience. So whether you listen to these stories in the classroom, boardroom or living room, each of these stories will trigger conversations amongst people. Go ahead & try it out...
