(Sort of) The Story
(Sort of) The Story
66. Dr. Boobs MD, DDS, WWE, RN (this one's for the beans)
CW: Mentions of suicide and racism
Today we anSwer the age-old question of "can a story be too silly?" (The answer is yes. It can and it has.) Max will tell us about a girl who didn't deserve a husband, and her sisters who love a broken glass discount. Janey will tell us about a stupid girl who can't stop bleeding (and discuss racism in folklore.) We swear, this one is a blast!
Max’s Sources - King Bean
- "One Hundred Favorite Folktales" chosen by Stith Thompson
- Originally from "Italian Popular Tales" by Thomas Frederick Crane
Janey’s Sources - The Girl Who Banished Seven Youths
- Arab Folktales, translated by Inea Bushnaq
- Udea and Her Seven Brothers wikipedia
- Schmiesing, Ann. “Blackness in the Grimms’ Fairy Tales.”
