  • Episode 96: The Bony Connection

    The threads of the Fairy Tale Mythos become further interwoven as we take some big leaps in logic to try to get Immortal Bony into as many stories as possible. But it does paint an awfully pretty picture. This week we're reading "The Golden Apples and the Nine Peahens."

    Cricket’s Opening Remarks, #followthefunny, A Dance of Sex Without Any Dress, Rebellious Apples, A Witch on Retainer, The Hair Olympics, A Whistle That Makes Edison Go to Sleep, Prince Bloodmancer, Keeping Up With the Khans, Johnny Appleswag

  • Episode 95: Denmark to Dunkostan

    Tyler and Gordie are back in control of the Fairy Tale express, and have steered her into strange waters with a story that really doesn't pan out in the end. But at least they're focused on what really matters in life: dunks, as we read "Blockhead Hans."

    Suggested talking points: loose tenderloins, dunkdunk, donkey donuts, shoe-turkey, a bird's natural jellies, cranblasted, Baron Sorkin, bucket sofa paper, Tilda Swinton library card, Shrek endings, the Trunchbull defense, Patton Oswalt ant golem

  • Episode 94: A Heartfelt Family Cashgrab

    You can put your minds at ease, Gordie got his 2DS, and we'll all be there together for its Maiden Voyage. A little less importantly, we might have hit on a complex, tangled web of lies and betrayal surrounding fairies and giants that spans the entire of the known folklore universe. Mario Kart is pretty fun though. Our story this week is a version of "Jack and the Beanstalk".

    Suggested talking points: Blasted Husk of “Rome II,” 2DS Therapy, Joke Scraps, Soft-Serve Cow, Mario Taught Us Well, Child-Based Economy, The Luxury of Breastfeeding, Shyamalan Half-Chub, Chicken Kiln, Fairy Beanstalk Investigator, Opening the Murder Door

  • Ramblecast 94: #ShitPresidentsSay Edition

    So, this Ramble is a little unorthodox and may be mostly un-funny, but in our defense, it wasn't a very funny week.

  • Episode 93: 'Cha Boi and Savior

    We have an extra meaty episode this week to make up for last week, so dig into a hefty, weird, nutso story called "The Maiden With the Rose On Her Forehead" that underutilizes the best character: the Cherryman. This episode was sponsored and produced by Jenna Steigerwalt, thank you Jenna!
