Bingsop's Fables Listener Reviews
-
" The stories were mostly forced, not interesting, and even less entertaining "
— Seamus, 9/8/2013 -
" The moral of this story is: too much Bing is not a good thing! Once every two weeks in Fortune magazine is okay and occasionally even funny. All at once, not so much. "
— Kent, 7/24/2012 -
" This was a really great idea, using Aesop's Fables to mimic real modern corporate life and give us some metaphorical food for thought. Unfortunately, it managed to poke fun at many aspects of the work place without giving too much in the way of true moral value. Blah. "
— Doris, 1/9/2012 -
" This book is supposed to be a humorous take on big business. Some of the morals were funny, but most were actually sad in my view. It was an interesting way to present his ideas. "
