Josh and Michial return to talk about nine of Grimms' fairy tales: The Companionship of the Cat and the Mouse (Katze und Maus in Gesellschaft) A Tale of the Boy Who Went Forth to Find Out What Fear Was (Märchen von einem, der auszog das Fürchten zu lernen) The Marvelous Minstrel (Der wunderliche Spielmann) The Three Little Gnomes in the Woods (Die drei Männlein im Walde) The Three Spinners (Die drei Spinnerinnen) The Three Snake Leaves (Die drei Schlangenblätter) The Fisherman and His Wife (Von dem Fischer und seiner Frau) The Brave Little Tailor (Das tapfere Schneiderlein) Along the way, they dream up a new Goofy cartoon and badmouth Zootopia, so something of the old Before They Were Live survives! We're glad to be back, and we hope you're glad, too! Thanks for your patience.

Josh and Michial present the first part of their "end of the canon" wrap-up, featuring questions on villains, music, the seven deadly sins, and who counts as a Disney princess. And more!
