Tales has been a pleasure to work with Tales has been a pleasure to work with. The company is communicative and responsive and the work is top-notch. Tales produces a professional quality podcast featuring your loved one that you would expect to find on NPR or a national level production. My elderly father enjoyed the experience very much and the family has been thrilled with the whole process.

Capture your loved ones' voices for future generations! I commissioned Tales interviews with 4 members of our older generation - my Mother, Aunts and an Uncle. Each person decided how many interviews they would be comfortable doing. They ranged from 1 interview to 5 interviews. Each person had a positive experience with the interview. The interviews have been shared broadly to our family of cousins, nieces and nephews. I have to say they have been terrific, and I highly recommend commissioning interviews with anyone over 60 now rather than later when health issues may become an issue. I wish I had found Tales before my father passed away 2 years ago. I learned so much that I did not know from each person interviewed. Some was personal history and some was local history of the town that I grew up in that I did not know. All of the interviews were done well. I recommend having good internet connection for the Zoom interviews for the best sound quality. If your family members think they do not have anything that people want to hear, come up with some questions for them so they know their stories are valued. I highly recommend taking the leap to get the interview process started. My husband loved the idea so much he has gifted the Life Story - 5 interviews to his father. He only wishes he had known about Tales before his mother passed away 2 years ago.

An absolute treasure! I commissioned Tales to make 5 shows with my father on different topics, and I just got the first one back - it is a TREASURE. I learned things about my dad that I never knew, and heard some old favorite stories as well. My dad loved the process of being interviewed, and his storytelling talents came out clearly in the show. This will be a treasured family heirloom, having these stories preserved. Thank you so much for the experience!

TOM'S STORY:My TALE was very well received by… My TALE was very well received by family and I was impressed with the relaxed conversational tone taken by Mark my interviewer. Recommend a video disc with a few family pictures if it's in your budget.

Tales.com was a great experience I thought this process was well put together! This is my feedback: there were moments in that interview that sparked my grandma to pull from her memories, that I don't think are written anywhere. She told me she's written down most of her history growing up, but those memories are invaluable to me and my family! It was the questions that were asked that sparked that, and those are the parts that were so amazing to hear! I think when gathering the questions, the process was perfect. There were great examples that sparked catered question for us to ask her directly. Wonderful job.
