I especially love the storytelling aspect of the podcast. It is very fun to listen to.

The Stories of Mahabharata first aired in 2014 and has aired 69 episodes to date. The podcast showcases how there is more to the tales of the Mahabharata than just kings, gods, and demons. The epic is a story about politics, ethics, and morals as well.
I am fond of this podcast series because it portrays the story and its characters with a lot of nuance.
