Episode Fifty-Two Pt.1: Damsels [feat. Fairy Tale Fix] - F*ck Perseus!

CW - Mention of suicide

PLEASE LIKE/COMMENT/SUBSCRIBE or we'll make you wanna poke your other eye out.

This month we have a TWO PARTER and Niamh has called in some white knights, Kelsey and Abbie from Fairy Tale Fix! We will get to know them and all about their fantastic "WTF fairytale podcast" before diving in to the Damsels in Distress Archetype and how it has grown and evolved with society. We pick out our bingo card of DID tropes before hearing the Irish myth, "Deirdre of the Sorrows" and her beautifully tragic ending.

Join us again next week for Part 2 because we just yapped that much!

WELCOME TO THE HAGSTONE COVEN.

MENTIONED

The Girl who Pretended To Be A Boy -AKA The Princess Who Would Be A Prince Andrew Lang collection
