Manage episode 357880800 series 2474048
Buddies, where do fairytales come from? Well, child, the history of storytelling is complicated, but let me tell you a very old story, that might just be the first fairytale! This ep, Kelly, Nate, and Chelsea get into the Bronze Age story, The Smith and the Devil. We discuss its ancient origins, some variations found elsewhere around the world, and even we try to figure out the moral! Plus, I SEE WHAT YOU DID THERE! And the Mouthgarf Report!
