In this previous Patreon-exclusive bonus episode, Kelsey reads The Donkey Lettuce that follows a sweet young hunter that finds out the hard way that witches always be schemin’. Meanwhile, Abbie tells us a really unsatisfying creationism story, The Sun Takes An Oath.
Strap in for a Jumbo Sized #HotGoblinSummer kick off as Kelsey tells the unhinged Grimm’s fairy tale, The Wedding of Mrs. Fox, and then a listener recommendation from our favorite: Ruth Manning-Sanders, The Leeshy Cat. Abbie finishes up perfectly for our summer break and leaves you with The Snake’s Treasure. […]
A very happy Pride to you and yours! This episode is all about gender and kissing the people you want to, with a little vengeance sprinkled on top. Abbie recounts the Brothers’ Grimm tale of The Twelve Huntsman, which is a story about true love, disguise, the supposed gender binary, […]
For this MerMay episode, we’re joined by a very special guest, Madeleine Lammel, Abbie’s sibling! Madeleine tells us the most romantic fairy tale we’ve ever heard on the pod, the Australian tale Yael and Murlwarra. Kelsey follows it up with two Scottish mermaid tales, The Weeping Mermaid of Loch Assynt […]
It’s MerMay and we’re joined once again by our very own mystic siren, Chadwick Heiberg! Chadwick’s lifelong love of the sea brings two very satisfying mermaid tales (ha, get it?) for MerMay, starting with The Siren’s Hunger, where a familiar character returns but is forever changed – then a new […]

And yet, it still needed the Fixtresses help to add Feminism/Lesbians/More Epicness/One crucial renaming. Good thing for all of you we were here.
What’s so funny? Find out this week on Fairy Tale Fix (spoiler alert; it’s us) as Abbie reads us the Sicilian fairy tale The Laughing Apples as written by our favorite, Ruth Manning-Sanders. This is a long one so strap in!
