Oh boy! What better set of stories for this day and age than the tales of a bunch of men who do some questionable things and are forever immortalized as heroes? Learn about three of Greece's most beloved heroes: Perseus, Theseus, and of course...Hercules. David finally gets to sing, Michael still sings more, and we learn for sure it's probably best not to look too deep into your heroes, because they're most likely kinda terrible. But at least there's monster fighting!
This week Michael has brought the original version of the "classic" story of Aladdin... and David hates it. Find out everything the movies left out, and why it's definitely a good idea that they did! Fair warning, Aladdin is the WORST.
It's time for another guest! One of David's girlfriends Wanda joins him and Michael and lets them tell part one of their first anime favorites, Dragonball. Hear the best of their recollection of the origin of Goku, the problems of Master Roshi, and werewolf monkeys! Plus this one's kinda like one of those old read-along books, our interactivity is over 9000!
Follow along with Wanda as we move through pictures of characters and scenes here! https://photos.app.goo.gl/HWxTCyh3eqC5AqVt8
Michael is back with another Grimm Brothers fairy tale, and boy oh boy does David have issues with this one. Michael learns to regret not looking up words and David finally gets a story prediction (sort of) right! Also beware, extremely light and/or old Game of Thrones spoilers hinted at in this episode. Just saying.
It's time for adventure! David is back with more Greek myths, this time the classic fetch-quest that is Jason and the Argonauts. Michael faintly remembers seeing a movie about this as a kid, then is horrified at what he had forgotten. Special guest cameos from many of your favorite mythical heroes!
Michael returns with one of the most misleading story titles we've had yet, and David doesn't like the lessons it tries to teach him. Come learn to distrust your step-parents, throw up some gold or toads, and figure out how on earth you'd make a paper dress all in this weeks' story!
David is back with more Greek & Roman myths, and the theme this week is Love. Michael learns what a Zephyr is, David learns there's a song about it, and Pygmalion learns nothing (you'll see).
Michael is back with another Grimm Brothers story, and lie any good story it has the devil in it! A harrowing tale of someone who floats through life effort free, just like the rest of us!
Michael brings David a little known Han Christian Andersen tale, and boy is it a doozy. David admits his hatred of horses, we learn what a sexton is, and Michael makes too many editing demands of David (who does them anyway). There's always a chance for a scheme in this week's episode!
David is back and *gasp* he's not telling a Bible story! Michael starts learning everything he didn't know about the ancient Greek myths! From Athena to Zeus, discover the (numerous) cast of gods, titans and more. Plus, as many versions of the creation story as we can manage to fit!
