239-Grimm: Give them a Hand

Jason Weiser, Carissa Weiser, Nextpod
About this episode

Three stories from the Grimm brothers of people helping someone out. Sometimes that goes well. Other times you end up with an indescribable urge to bury your nose in filth and hunt for truffles.

The creatures are three generations of sleazy Irish water creatures on a redemption arc.
