In this episode, I talk about Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp, a popular folk or fairy tale from The Arabian Nights, which is a collection of classic Middle Eastern stories. I cover a bit of the history about Aladdin, how the story has influenced me, and then relay a condensed version of the story from beginning to end.
