Sleepy Stories

The Princess and the Goblin, Episode 32 - "The Last Chapter"


Listen Later

As you can see, George MacDonald loved a good tautology. Here we are at the end of our first season. We'll stumble into "The Princess and Curdie" after the New Year. Also, looks like I was still calling this thing "Sleepytime Stories" right up until then. I'm genuinely curious to find out how deep that error stretches into Season 2!

This is more of a denouement than a chapter, simply tying up a few loose ends and sending the characters on their way. However, it is framed by some super solid Lydia nonsense on either end, which I thoroughly enjoyed. I left the sound of my dad closing a somewhat difficult bedroom door because I thought it was funny. Sorry about that. :-)

Thanks for giving us a good first year! We'll talk to you again in 2020.
