100 episodes! I started StoryJam as a lockdown project, sending stories to my family and a couple of friends. It all seems a lifetime away now. I assumed I would either run out of stories or I would get busy with “real” work once the lockdown was over. What I didn’t realize was that the mild panic of not finding the “right” story, the late night recordings to avoid street noises (and pausing every time the dog barked, the ambulance screamed or the night watchman struck his lathi), the early morning edits before the household “rush-hour”, would all become part of my weekly routine. Once the episode was uploaded I felt euphoric, but only for 24 hours, then the cycle started again. Like a resilient creeper, the rest of my life- personal and professional- has grown along and around StoryJam, embracing my mad little project completely. Who do I  thank for this? The universe? Covid 19 (Eeeks!) I certainly know I want to thank you, dear listener, for indulging me, despite your own demanding schedules and busy lives. Thank you! ------- Today a story from the master folklore teller, Vijaydan Detha which has for its characters the proverbial raja, rani and the clever thief! #hindi #storyjam #hindipodcast #hindiwriters #kahani #kahaniyan  #vijadandetha #bijji #charandaschor #hindikahaniyan --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/storyjam/message
