Gudgudi

By Josh & Neha

In Hindi Gudgudi means tickle. It's one of our fav activity - an age old tradition, one that doesn't need any tools or techniques. Helps us break into laughter and disconnect from the daily chore of life. In the episodes you'll hear from a tired mom of two kids engage in improvised dialogue with her son who is a curious four year old. Expect traditional stories retold in newer ways, lots of whys and occasional expression of annoyance.

BlueJay halloween adventures with friends & more

In this episode, we learn about numbers - what comes before, after and in-between.

In the US it's fall season and we all just celebrated Halloween in October. So in this episode we explore stories of Halloween adventures - trick-or-treating, jack-o-lanterns, spooky music and fun costumes. 

There is another surprise in this episode - this time I tried out ChatGPT https://openai.com/blog/chatgpt/ for complementing my story telling skills. Let's see if you all can identify what parts of the story were generated by the AI and what were human additions :P
