Throwback: The Pumpkin Seeds

Today we're doing a throwback episode to one of our favorites from the early days of Stories Podcast. Magic pumpkins keep growing in Lakshmi's yard, and she and her brother Dubey can't believe it! In this traditional Indian folktale, we find out what happens when you help someone in need out the goodness of your heart and what happens when you help someone in the hopes of getting a reward.
