Ep 4 - Numbers

This week is Episode 4 - Numbers (Original aired on Smithers Community Radio @ smitherradio.com (March 18th, 2023)) of River Reads, where we focus on numbers in Fairy tales. That is, any stories that have a number in their title. In no particular order, stories from the Grimm's Fairy Tales: 1)'The Three Children of Fortune'; 2) 'The Twelve Brothers'; 3) 'The Wolf and the Seven Goats'; and 4) 'The Four Accomplished Bothers'. The River Reads show is "Not a kids show but not not a kids show". Listener discretion is advised. Also on episode 4, Wilde does a call out to authors seeking to have their original works perhaps featured on future River Reads. If interested, please contact River Reads at [email protected].  This week's program contains mature situations/themes and is intended for an older youth audience.  Viewer discretion is advised.  Many of the stories have been rated a River Reads Rating of PGD for Possible Gore and/or Death ('gore' is subjective) and GGD for Gross Gore and/or Death (River’s favorite kind of stories).  River Reads is a program for all ages to escape into creative commons bedtime stories and fairy tales; both new and old, but mostly old and at times macabre, or silly, or even perhaps a little confusing as written in old english and the host fumbles words, and then there’s stories who have not aged well.This week episode includes:The Three Children of Fortune.
