Posted by in Good Job, Brain!, Podcasts on Mar 12, 2012 @ 11:45 AM | 2 comments

Fun fact: The Little Mermaid wasn’t trying to kiss the prince, she was trying to kill the prince. Fairy tales pre-Disneyfication were a little darker than the innocent bedtime story versions that come to mind, and this week’s episode of Good Job, Brain! sheds some light on ‘em. Give it a listen, and don’t forget to share it with friends!
