Welcome to the Dorktales Storytime Podcast. I’m Jonathan Cormur, a voice actor who, from a very young age, loved reading, watching cartoons, telling stories and making up character voices. I still do! Now with this podcast, I get to share those stories with you! I have two kinds of original tales to tell…Fractured Fairytales we call Dorktales and Hidden Heroes of History.
Hey classic cartoon lovers! Do you remember the fractured fairy tales that were a part of the Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle show? Well, that’s what Dorktales are like…slightly wacky and very geeky retellings of classic fairy tales.
I’m also looking forward to telling you the stories of real-life heroes in science, technology, engineering, arts, math and human rights. These are the people—the STEAMers and DREAMERS—who made history in ways you’d never imagine.
Every story I tell is suitable for all ages—with silly parts for kids and some cleverish pop-culture references that the adult-types seem to enjoy.
We’re dropping the first 3 episodes to get you started. After listening, you can find great resources and more information about each episode on jonincharacter.com.
