13 Nights of Halloween: Night 8 - Urashimataro and the Turtle

Send over your dead SMS messages.

Greetings, listeners! We're back again and I can't believe I've managed to keep my family together and disciplined enough to get this done! Persephone must have something to do with it. Tonight, we'll be hearing from Chronos (or is that Cronus?), and he'll be reading us the tale of Urashimataro and the Turtle from Andrew Lang's Pink Fairy Book. We'll learn that though youth and beauty can be preserved, time will catch up, eventually, especially if you don't listen to your wife. If you have any comments, dead letters should be sent to me at Hades@firesidefolklorewithhades.com.
