For this MerMay episode, we’re joined by a very special guest, Madeleine Lammel, Abbie’s sibling! Madeleine tells us the most romantic fairy tale we’ve ever heard on the pod, the Australian tale Yael and Murlwarra. Kelsey follows it up with two Scottish mermaid tales, The Weeping Mermaid of Loch Assynt and The Scottish Mermaid of Galloway. The question is, are these mermaids girly-pop, tragic, or scary? There’s only three kinds of mermaids, you know.

It’s MerMay and we’re joined once again by our very own mystic siren, Chadwick Heiberg! Chadwick’s lifelong love of the sea brings two very satisfying mermaid tales (ha, get it?) for MerMay, starting with The Siren’s Hunger, where a familiar character returns but is forever changed – then a new kind of tale called The Sea Remembers, a timely reminder to respect our natural resources. Then, Abbie finishes with a Ruth Manning-Sanders story we can’t believe we haven’t read on the podcast yet, Rake Up! where a mermaid and her good friend Mark get their vengeance, as mermaids do.

Romance! Bloodlust! Two Headed Giants! Three Headed Giants! Demons! Cool names! Kelsey tells the Cornish legend of Jack the Giant Killer this episode, and it is everything. And yet, it still needed the Fixtresses help to add Feminism/Lesbians/More Epicness/One crucial renaming. Good thing for all of you we were here.

It’s Irish fairy tale month (AKA the best time of the year)! Abbie reads an old Irish folk tale that’s sure to bring a happy tear to your eye with The Spinners of Blessings. Then we take a sharp turn with Kelsey’s dark Irish folk tale, The Abhartach, thought to be the inspiration for Bram Stoker’s Dracula.

Happy Lunar New Year! Abbie celebrates the onset of the Year of the Horse (her people!) with telling the tale of how the Chinese Zodiac came to be in the first place, followed up with a timeless horse trope here on Fairy Tale Fix with The Girl With The Horse’s Head (another excellent Chinese fairy tale). Kelsey follows up with another great FTF staple involving rich people being in hell: The Fiddler in Hell.
