In the early 1800s, the Brothers Grimm famously collected German folk tales and recorded them for posterity, launching what's now known as the modern fairy tale. Join Philippe, Mike, and guests as they explore one story at a time with humor, history, and digressions at every turn.

Come see the violence inherent in the system as our old pal Thumbling returns but with a big, big surprise. We cap off Season 6 with talk of lactating males, developmental trauma, and rare Grimm unfinished business.

We bring you a great tale this week, touching on such classic Grimm tropes as "only name a couple of side characters" plus, thankfully, a return to creative capital punishment and a quick jaunt into some of the live-acti

This week's is several we've seen stapled together. However, we discover that parents really do have a favorite child, that material goods are sometimes easier than happiness, and that indecent proposals can actually wor

In the further adventures of that very loose Grimm interpretation of what Christianity is all about, we find a pretty good tale of accidental wishes, sticking it to the rich man, and later Mike's kid gender swapping Jesu

We mark our completion of the first of two volumes in the Grimm canon (!) with this Aesop-like little story that could be about greed and piety, or could be about lesbian nun waterfowl. Who's to say, really?

A lot of tropes that we've seen before this time, but we get some new concepts such as planting a dead fish and...spying on your daughter and her husband on their wedding night? Add a nosy (yet justified) wife and a rush

The Grimms bring us a very confusing tale of marriage, full of puns about patches. But don't worry, we make it even more confusing with Joe Millionaire, Pulp Fiction, and PBR.

We were a little split on this chain tale of diminishing material returns & burgeoning ethical returns, but still found time to talk about a little German history and culture plus a key Renaissance thought piece.

This week's A-tier story features a couple of classic tropes: Saint Peter being a dick, and the Grimms not being entirely clear on how Hell works. Mix in a sprinkle of Trainspotting parallels and a good game of Sardines

Saint Peter's back to his dumb schemes in this rambling tale featuring a critical marshmallow test and raising multiple princesses from the dead for free. Will Brother Lustig trick his way into Heaven after all? The answ

Time is money in this lesser-known shorty about -- you guessed it -- cocks and nuts and greed, wherein everyone dies and Phil wants to (again?) reboot Skinemax classic Emmanuelle.

WTF is a nixie? Find out! Sort of. This shorty sparked some Gen X conversation (Baby Jessica, anybody?), an off-the-wall Japanese animated adaptation, and a D&D campaign pitch that in hindsight might already be a YA seri

Join us for a short one this week, a frequently-told but funny fable about treating your elders with respect: because you never know when the next generation is watching. And, if there's a way to make this even darker, P

Here we have one of the best stories we've read in a long time, succinctly summed up as a tale of sexy shoes and drunken shenanigans from a girl you can't help but root for.

Our triumphant return! Miss us? We missed you! We kick off SEASON SIX with a wackjob tale of wishes, an iffy bad guy, poor planning, and one of the greatest punishments yet.

Episode 75 with (brief) special guest Shannon! Thus brings a close to Season 5 with the thrilling conclusion to The Fox Cycle, a top-tier shorty based on an ancient expression. We get into cat tattoos, speaking Greek, an

Continuing "the fox saga" wherein we have a nice wolf and a downright awful fox. We think? Despite diving into German and Olde English we may still have translation and tone troubles.

Back to our series of short one-offs about quick brown foxes and lazy...wolves. This week the wolf's not so much a braggart as a bully. Will he get what's coming to him? Knowing the Grimms, probably!

This week we kick off a series of shorties centering around a clever lil' fox and, usually, his big, dumb wolf friend. Here, the wolf talks a big game but how far will he throw his hatchet?

This week's entry is a zany tale full of wannabe X-Men and sounds remarkably similar to 1988's The Adventures of Baron Munchausen, and for good reason.
