Wil does an amazing job bringing to life stories from all walks of life. If you are on the fence give a listen you won’t be disappointed.
While I don’t often read short stories, I love having them read to me. Wil curates wonderful and often award-winning short stories that I would never have come across otherwise. His intro to each story is a thoughtful setup, plus gives a glimpse into who Wil is as a person, which has been lovely.
I’ve been a Wil Wheaton fan for a long time. I am very happy that he decided to continue in the tradition of Reading Rainbow and add a twist with his choice of fantastic or plain strange short stories and their amazing authors. This is high quality storytelling by a wonderful and kind human being.
Just finished the first episode in this podcast and it’s is absolutely binge worthy content! Thought I think I’ll take my time so it I can enjoy each story masterfully narrated by Wil Wheaton.
Wil is such a good reader and actor. He picks such unique stories to read!
