Gather your family for great stories from great storytellers. Stories bring us together and the stories on The Apple Seed will spark memories that you can share with the people you love. The Apple Seed is a storytelling podcast by BYUradio and is hosted by Sam Payne.
A child with such power over his focus he can light things on fire with nothing but his eyes. An old lady determined to bring a ghost to life. A young girl who is so shy she almost gets trapped by some evil men in the middle of the night. What do all of these have in common? Well, maybe not a whole lot, but they do all appear on today’s episode of The Apple Seed.
Stories come in all shapes and sizes—personal stories, traditional stores, folk tales, fairytales, and more. The stories we have for you today are from all sorts of genres, but they all teach us lessons on being kind and the impact we can have on the lives of others. In a world that is full of turmoil and confusion, we could all use a little kindness from ourselves and from others.

Most stories are full of magic. Even true stories have magic in them. They deliver us to another time, another place, to new people and new events. Sometimes they can teach us things about our own lives even when the story is completely different from what we live everyday. We have some magical stories today.

Today’s episode is filled with laughter, luck, and love! Our first story, Sheila Arnold’s, “People’s Choices - Possum & Snake”, will remind you of all the silly mistakes you’ve made before. Yet you don’t need to feel bad about them, because if you’re anything like Possum, then you might’ve just accidentally left your brain at home.
Today’s story takes place in China where Min-Yo and her village are facing a very serious problem that only the dragon on the moon can stop. How does one reach the Moon Dragon? Take the stairs, of course! But, the problem is that the staircase disappears from time to time and has grown delicate and thin, so one wrong step will send the climber falling a long, long way down.

Somewhere far away, deep under the Eastern sea, is a Dragon King with a treasure hoard piled high with gold, rubies, emeralds, jade, and every kind of treasure you can imagine.

In today’s story, one young man sets out on a perilous journey to find the Dragon King’s palace and recover the most precious of all his treasures- a pearl that shines by night.
