We’re back, baby! Rested, hydrated, and ready to make all your dreams come true: specifically the Dragon and Scary Tree related ones. Abbie kicks things off with the Romanian tale of Stan Bolovan from RMS’s Book of Dragons, followed immediately by Kelsey’s telling of Scottish folktale Auld Cruivie. We are […]
In this previous Patreon-exclusive bonus episode, coming soon to a theater near you is the tale of THE JUSTICE ORDER – Seven kickass strangers will band together to fight for what’s right in Germany of yore. Or that’s what Abbie and Kelsey wish anyway for the continuation of The Brothers […]
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. […]

For this MerMay episode, we’re joined by a very special guest, Madeleine Lammel, Abbie’s sibling!

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.
