Shownotes

In this episode we dish on the Grimm’s secret obsession with revenge, and solve the mystery of the stepmother switcheroo once and for all

PART 1 [04:32] - In which we learn that the Grimms are running a blue light special on sexual reassignment surgery

PART 2 [11:54] - In which we read a troubling bible story, repeat a cliché that’s anything but woke, and come across more famous last words that aren’t last words

PART 3 [21:16] - In which we peek into someone’s diary and find plenty of insults, grudges, hearsay, vulgarity, and petty peevish gossip 

PART 4 [32:28] - In which we find the Grimms in Latin class, congratulating themselves on being the class clowns

PART 5 [41:29] - In which we find a bag full of jelly donuts, visit a gigantic, romantic library, and finally put a bow on these last 4 episodes of politics as usual
