Ep. 99: The Princess and the Pea Wrap Up & Intro to Rumpelstiltskin

It's time to climb down from the pile of mattresses and start spinning a new tale! Drew and Cassie begin this episode with our final thoughts on The Princess and the Pea, including our disappointment in the presence of the concept of the divine right to rule. As always, we discuss our ideas for how we would like to retold the story ourselves. Then we begin our journey into a new story for November, which is Rumpelstiltskin by the Brothers Grimm. We talk through the plot of the story and the many questions it brings up - and we disagree strongly on the randomness of the tale's ending! Then we reveal the criteria we'll be using for the story of Rumpelstiltskin and which retellings we'll be talking about throughout the month!
