  • Bonus: A What the Folklore Micro-Holiday

    This is not really a formal episode, but we received a very lovely box of stuff from a listener and decided that we should open it on air, and added in a few gifts to each other as well: if you'd like to join us, feel free! We got each other some pretty dumb gifts. But the listener box was amazing.

  • Episode 99: Robber Girl's Nightly Knife-Tickles: The Snow Queen Part II

    We're finishing up "The Snow Queen" this week, and introducing a side character that's sure to join the pantheon of great fairy tale side characters. Everything is coming full circle. Math is key, body fluids are a go, and the writers of Frozen are increasingly wrong.

    Suggested talking points: inner snow dad truth, fairy tale crossover, robber cannibals, the disease room, Bae the Reindeer, Frozen swaps, vomiting sweet fog angels, Lady Foxes Drinking Tea: the Band, reindeer Tinder, the Fairy Ur-Story

  • Episode 98: The Shaun White Mystery Machine: The Snow Queen Part I

    We have endeavored on a two-parter, so buckle in for a meatier story. We're reading "The Snow Queen" by Hans Christian Andersen, which is the source material for Disney's Frozen. We don't usually tread so close to Disney territory, but there are reasons for this one. And suffice to say that Disney goofed up pretty hard when deciding on what material to use.

    Suggested talking points: kinda opus, a cheerful demon, the spinach mirror, modern day witch covens, dire frats, 2 Bad Shardz, medieval skitchin', saying your nightly multiplication tables, double evil, evil married

  • Ramblecast 98

    Excerpts of unused material from various episodes of WTFolklore, wherein we redefine the marketing world by applying an insect-bite pain index to product ratio, and found Folklore Island, a dictator's home away from home.

  • Episode 97: Farewell, Mr. Potato King?

    This protagonist ranks in pretty high on the "worst heroes" list, complete with a circuitous journey that ultimately doesn't lead to much. But he does reconstruct a sausage with his colon (we think) so that's fun. Our story this week is "Thumbling as Journeyman."

    Suggested talking points: Avian bone syndrome fact-checking, an honest Kraftsman, the first Yelp app, chalkboard mines, a bad robbery plan, slaughter by punching, sausage bladder, ancient vore, potato recipes, the value of a kreuzer coin, farmer advice, a zebra cake chicken, an exploration of the fetishes
