What The Folklore?

There's never been a Pokemon game that takes place in REAL America, so we're pitching Gen 9: Pokemon Stars & Pokemon Stripes.

Note: we're touching on some serious issues here, and just wanted to take a moment to acknowledge that although we are making jokes, this is all satire and we take these issues with gravity they deserve.

It's that time of year again, everyone. The d'Aulnoy train has been speeding toward us for a year, and it has finally arrived. We're reading "Gracieuse and Percinet" this year, which involves a surprising number of twists and turns for a chunk of story in which nothing really happens.

Suggested talking points: Waffle House Valentine's Day, public podcasting, jam consumption, royal anatomy, Grognon.0, camel drinking mechanisms, John Woo bird metrics, Scooby Doo hot take, Harry Potter spell slots

A content warning: this story kinda involves sex trafficking. We have agreed that we have to talk about the daughter in question as an adult, and the trafficker is a magic bear prince, but it's still a little uncomfortable at moments.

We're finally reading "East of the Sun West of the Moon." For a foundational fairy tale, it's got a lot of problems. This story makes a lot more sense when you think of it as a reality show run by a troll in the background. Just trust us, you'll see it by the end.

Apologies for the audio on this one gang, we had a microphone cord fray over the course of recording and it sounds like we've got an open lightsaber on the table between us. This story, though, has a lot going on. We're reading "the Barber's Clever Wife," and she gets into some wild stuff.
