Customer Reviews
Highly recommend this podcast
My whole family loves this podcast. Matt and Adam are excellent hosts. Matt could easily have a second career narrating audio books, and Adam’s reactions to the general Grimm weirdness are classic. Seriously, you can’t go wrong with this podcast.
The absolute best!
This is the most delightful podcast I have had the good fortune to stumble upon. I could listen to Matthew and Adam reading and reacting to anything, but the Grimm’s Fairy Tales are an especially weird and wonderful ride.
Post more often please :)
