Have you ever needed help with something?

If so, did you reach out and ask someone to lend a hand?

In today's story, we'll meet a character who isn't very keen on asking for help.

But he gets it in more ways than he ever imagined.

I'm Rebecca Scher and welcome to Circle Round.

Where story time happens all the time.

Today our story is called Every Other Friday.

Versions of this tale originally come from Mexico.

Some really great people came together to bring you our adaptation of this folktale,

including Melora Hardin and Gildert Jackson.

Grown-ups you might know Emmy Award nominee Melora Hardin from the office,

Transparent and Freeforms hit show The Bold Type,

where she appears alongside real-life husband, Gildert Jackson.

This story also kicks off our special summer series with the Boston Symphony Orchestra

and features musical accompaniment by BSO double bassist Ben Levy.

And now Circle Round everyone for Every Other Friday.
