The Grimms Meet a Bond Villain, or Game of Dominos

The Bust Up Between the Emperor and the Pope, or: it’s déjà vu all over the news, again

The emperor and the pope walk into a barber shop and make the current news cycle spin yet another fancy tale of déjà vu Part 1 [03:18] In which the Grimms use a simple case of fairytale déjà vu to revisit an old, personal grudge Part 2 [17:51] In which we get a depressing surge of will power, followed by a Grimm little bible verse — one that has nothing at all to do with Pulp Fiction, or any other Hollywood film. I swear to god! Part 3 [29:08] In which we catch a replay of some famous super bowl moments, star in a one-word history re-enactment, and find the news déjà vu-streaming all over, again Part 4 [1:12:01] In which we read a brief editorial from the 14th century, write a little op-ed of our own, and finally decide to call a Grimmism a Grimmism *Music and Sound credits for this episode (45) are — as usual — SUPER-extensive and can be found on the website @ betweenthelines.xyz [https://betweenthelines.xyz/hgcode-podcast/54-code045] *special thanks to freesound.org [https://freesound.org/] for nearly all of kristo's awesome peanut gallery voices... *Chapter Titles, and extra material (auf Deutsch) read by Anna Jacobsen [https://oboe-bluebird-6zkz.squarespace.com/?p]* *Original German Fairytale text (manuscript version) read by Jürgen Lexow [https://www.voice-lexow.de/] * *English translation of the original manuscript version read by Nicole Warner [https://germanwithnicole.com]* **Librivox recording of Hänsel und Gretel [https://ia804508.us.archive.org/12/items/grimm_maerchen_1_librivox/grimm_185_haensel_und_gretel.mp3] (final version auf Deutsch) read by Stephan Gambke [https://librivox.org/reader/137]* **Librivox recording of Hansel and Gretel [https://ia801307.us.archive.org/33/items/childrensshortworks11_1102_librivox/childrensshortworks011_hanselandgretel_djk.mp3] (final version in English) read by Deborah Knight [https://librivox.org/sections/readers/6064]* *got a question… or just wanna say hi…?

Dostoyevsky meets Frau Holzhacker, or: Creativity’s a bitch, man

The kids make their way back home, anachronisms abound, and cultures shift as Norman Mailer, Marshall McLuhan, and Ben Johnson kick off our wholly irreverent proceedings... Part 1 [06:35] - In which we put the hermetic seal of approval on the Light of the Silvery Moon. Part 2 [19:57] - In which we do some dream work, and get creative with pizza dough and a bowl of alphabet soup. Then, somebody turns on the light and totally spoils the romantic mood. Part 3 [50:45] - In which we run into a coupla’ few anachronisms: Dostoyevsky meets Jesse Helms, Mad Libs goes Medieval, and Pope Leo meets Rod Blagojevich, the ex-governor of Illinois. Part 4 [1:11:22] - In which Steven Pinker fixes everything, Frau Holzhacker tells the truth, and Billy Graham does some preaching to the choir. We also decide we’re not workaholics, and get ourselves ready to hit the fast forward button. *Music and Sound credits for this episode (44) are — as usual — SUPER-extensive and can be found on the website @ betweenthelines.xyz [https://betweenthelines.xyz/hgcode-podcast/53-code044] *special thanks to freesound.org [https://freesound.org/] for nearly all of kristo's awesome peanut gallery voices... *Chapter Titles, and extra material (auf Deutsch) read by Anna Jacobsen [https://oboe-bluebird-6zkz.squarespace.com/?p]* *Original Fairytale text (manuscript version auf Deutsch) read by Jürgen Lexow [https://www.voice-lexow.de/] * *English translation of the original manuscript version read by Nicole Warner [https://germanwithnicole.com]* **Librivox recording of Hänsel und Gretel [https://ia804508.us.archive.org/12/items/grimm_maerchen_1_librivox/grimm_185_haensel_und_gretel.mp3] (final version auf Deutsch) read by Stephan Gambke [https://librivox.org/reader/137]* **Librivox recording of Hansel and Gretel [https://ia801307.us.archive.org/33/items/childrensshortworks11_1102_librivox/childrensshortworks011_hanselandgretel_djk.mp3] (final version in English) read by Deborah Knight [https://librivox.org/sections/readers/6064]* *check out John Giannini’s excellent book on Jungian Typology - Compass of the Soul [https://amzn.to/4rpJppU] The Scientific Method - wiki page [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_method] The Carmina Burana - wiki page [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carmina_Burana] The Gospel According to the Mark of Silver - wiki page [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gospel_According_to_the_Mark_of_Silver]
