    The Star Money: Unraveling the Rewards of Selfless Giving

    Send us a Text Message.
    Discover the charm of kindness and the enigma of its rewards as we take a light-hearted yet insightful look at "The Star Money," a tale of selflessness from the enchanting world of Grimm's Fairy Tales. Our latest episode, sparked by the whimsy of Siri's random selection, brings you along on a storytelling adventure that teeters between the magical and the moral. We follow a girl who, with nothing left but her heart, gives away everything to those in need, and we can't help but draw amusing parallels to today's philanthropic celebrities. So, prepare to be whisked away into a narrative as entertaining as it is thought-provoking.

    As the tale unfurls, we don't just recount the events; we engage in a lively debate on whether karma truly does come back around. What happens when selfless acts are met with celestial rewards or when they're not? We tackle the optimistic yet complex message of "The Star Money," contemplating the true nature of charity and the expectations that often come attached. Without spoiling the magic, our conversation may alter your perspective on the age-old saying, "What goes around, comes around." Tune in for an episode that promises to tickle your funny bone and ignite your curiosity about the outcomes of giving freely in a world that doesn't always give back.

    The Friendly Ogre: A Journey into Amelia Brown's Enchanted Stories

    Send us a Text Message.
    Embark on an enchanted adventure with us as we explore the whimsical tales spun by UK's very own Amelia Brown. Our latest episode wanders through the captivating narrative of "The Friendly Ogre," where we join young John and Penn in their unexpected encounter with the titular character. Amelia's transition from a humor columnist to a renowned storyteller is nothing short of a fairy tale itself, and we're absolutely delighted to bring the charm of her words to your ears. Her stories, brimming with curiosity and warmth, beckon to those who treasure the innocence of youth and the thrill of discovering the extraordinary in the ordinary.

    As the evening draws near, allow yourself to be transported to a world where ogres wield handkerchiefs rather than clubs, and where the bravery of children reminds us of the bold spirits we once were—or perhaps still are. We'll reveal how Amelia's enchanting narratives not only defy expectations but also touch on the timeless allure of fairy tales and the universal courage found within us all. As the magic of "The Friendly Ogre" concludes, we promise a path to more of Amelia's delightful creations with links to her blog, Fairy Stories and Other Tales, all waiting for you in our show notes. Wrap yourself in a blanket of stars and let the lilt of adventure and the coy tease of a bonus story guide you to dreamland, with our heartfelt thanks to Amelia for sharing her fantastical world.

    Prepare to be whisked away into a realm where myths dance with morality as we crack open the curious case of "The Seven-Headed Serpent," a Greek tale.  Embark on a narrative sea voyage with us across a Greek seascape with lions and mystic gardens—a setting as rich and unpredictable as the stories themselves.

Discover how a donkey's steadfast labor, spinning nuns, and the creeping threat of serpents weave together an enthralling storyline that's as bizarre as it is.
