Dear Listener, it’s our fifth evening together. They say five is a lucky number, a number of adventure, a number that can make things happen. Today’s story is wondrously crafted, whimsical of a Bombay that we all know too well and steeped in ambition, struggle and hope. I hope you enjoy listening to this as much as I enjoyed narrating it, from the keyboard of Raj Kaushal, here’s presenting - A Jar of Hope Credits: Podcast - Host: Roshan Abbas Producer: Envision Sounds Written by: Raj Kaushal Curated by: Pranika Borkar and Shantanu Anand Artwork: Aastha Patel Kommune track- Voice: Roshan Abbas Music: A Very Brady Special by Kevin MacLeod Link: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/5760-a-very-brady-special License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Producer- Kommune http://kommuneity.com…

Dear listener, How are you feeling tonight? It's Night Four of Goodnight Stories for Adults, and love is in the air. A nostalgic love, if I pay add. A love that's warm, like the smell of freshly baked cakes and long-forgotten books; a love that we wonder and wish we all had. Jane has that way with words, the way that snakes itself up from inside your ears straight into your heart. Come melt with us tonight, the night is young, this love is not.

Dear listener, How are you feeling tonight? It's Night Two of Goodnight Stories for Adults and through this journey of building the podcast we've grappled quite often with the notion of time. Sometimes it takes minutes for stories to develop, sometimes its decades and we finally see the light. This is one such story that continues for years across timezones and comes home in the loveliest way, right from where it began - but hey we're getting ahead of ourselves. Over to Anish. Good night and I hope you sleep well.
