Episode 41: The Brothers Grimm The Six Swans

Shelly is joined by Kris, Kristen Hartnagel(new reader!) and Jilleien Franquelli Rippey(producer/host of Conversations with Mary Jane podcast) to talk about the creepy weird Six Swans fairy tale. LOTS of assumptions and unanswered questions here. Ha! How did the family react when the king brought home a random naked girl who doesn't talk that he found in a tree? Were the swan brothers stealing stuff the whole day except for the 15 minutes that they were people? Will Shelly ever leave Kristen's lakehouse? Tune in to find out. Also, find out more about the amazing organization simplesacrifice.com that Jilleien runs that has been feeding the homeless in Baltimore for years. And thanks to Christina Gradillas for the intro!

Guests: Kristen Hartnagel, Jilleien Franquelli
