#turkey #folktale #turkiye
\nToday we are back in the book of Turkish folklore written down by Ignaz Kunos. This story is about a prince in need of a princess and the adventures he has getting her. Also, it has the guy with the balls of day and night in the last Armenian story. A listener said that they might be related and here\u2019s a very similar story.

\nPodcast Shoutout: Lingthusiasm Hosts Gretchen and Lauren go out of their way to make linguistic concepts easier for us lay folks to swallow. They also cover a lot of stuff that makes me go \u201cwhy do we say that?\u201d And so if you like their podcast as much as I do, go and give them a like, a rating, and a review.
\nListener Shoutout: Gaborone Botswana Named after Kgosi Gaborone, or King Gaborone, a king of the Tlokwa people. There is evidence of people residing where the city stands, going back to around 400 bce. During the early 19th century, there was a lot of upheaval and migration in the area. In 1966, it became only the 11th British dependency to become independent. It is on the very edge of Botswana and South Africa. It is a great place for seeing lots of beautiful wildlife. And so I would love to visit. And to my listeners in Gaborone I say \u201cKe a leboga and Robala sentle\u201d
