Story
The experience of going through a story allows us to escape our lives for a moment, and so this is a perfect way to start learning a language. Going through a story activates your brain and imagination, thus increasing the chance to learn easily and not quit. Often, people start learning a new language only to give up after a couple of weeks. This is not due to the complexity of the language but because they become disheartened as the method they are using does not give the right motivation.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Some people bounce back in response to setbacks; others break. We often think that these responses are hardwired, but fortunately this is not the case. Stoicism offers us an alternative approach. Plumbing the wisdom of one of the most popular and successful schools of thought from ancient Rome, philosopher William B. Irvine teaches us to turn any challenge on its head. The Stoic Challenge, then, is the ultimate guide to improving your quality of life through tactics developed by ancient Stoics, from Marcus Aurelius and Seneca to Epictetus.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.

The experience of going through a story allows us to escape our lives for a moment, and so this is a perfect way to start learning a language. Going through a story activates your brain and imagination, thus increasing the chance to learn easily and not quit. Often, people start learning a new language only to give up after a couple of weeks. This is not due to the complexity of the language but because they become disheartened as the method they are using does not give the right motivation.

What is the hardest challenge you’ve faced as a student of the Russian language? You can work hard on your grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation, but being able to communicate naturally isn’t easy. In fact, the toughest part of learning Russian is knowing how to speak like a native. Most textbooks are made to teach you the traditional rules and structures of a language and are great for getting around the grammar and spelling questions you may have.

God send
I watched Olly’s YouTube videos first. He’s a wonderful human being. I tried Pimsleur first, and it was painfully slow. I happened upon this audiobook because I was looking for a replacement, and I love stories, so I searched out Russian short stories. When I made the connection that Olly was the creator (I usually tune out advertising), I was thrilled. When I found out there was an accompanying Kindle book that you could follow along with as you listened, I was beyond thrilled. I’ve only been learning Russian a few weeks, and taking this approach is like drinking from a firehose, but from a firehose of refreshing knowledge on a hot summer day of ignorance. This is exactly what I’m looking for. Thank you, Olly! Спасибо!

Great stories for this level
I read it alongside the Kindle book to get the most out of it. I read a chapter then listened to it. The stories are short and fun - like the kind I used to read as a youngster. It gives a real sense of accomplishment to read the stories (which I’m better at) and then get most of it when you hear it too (which I need to work at).
Great collection, I hope Olly (and other authors like Ignaty Dyakov) come out with more dual book+audio works. They really do a great job.

The PDF doesn't have the stories in it
It is so close to being great, but without the full story in the PDF it is rather hopeless to actually learn something. Still, the stories are pretty fun if you actually understand them. But that PDF... argh! I am so disappointed in that. I thought it would be like Olly is preaching on YouTube: Listen, read, and listen again, but no. Only a summery and a wordlist
