The introductory content showed me a whole new wild side of Rebbe Nachman and his messianic aspirations. I didn't enjoy the stories. Definitely learned a lot about what kabbalistic breslov theology actually is, and it isn't just to be happy all the time. These are dense kabbalistic stories that are kind of a slog (although I did enjoy a few), they're not simple folk tales.
