Podcasts about Little Red Riding Hood

Get ready for a wild ride with "Princess Battle Royale" - the most hilarious and action-packed children's book you'll want to read this summer! Author Phaea Crede & Illustrator Jen Hill join host Jed Doherty to discuss their uproarious new picture book that mashes up fairy tale princesses with professional wrestling. Imagine Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Rapunzel throwing down in a wrestling ring - that's exactly what this creative duo has cooked up. The book features a cast of classic and lesser-known princesses battling it out, with the Swan Princess serving as the ultimate villain. Little Red Riding Hood even gets her moment to shine as the towel girl! The inspiration came from Phaea playing with her daughter and creating wrestling moves with princess dolls. She dove deep into professional wrestling, particularly All Elite Wrestling (AEW), to capture the perfect blend of athleticism and storytelling. Jen Hill brought the concept to life with incredibly detailed illustrations packed with hidden fairy tale characters that kids will love discovering. What makes this book special is how it empowers classic princess characters, turning them from damsels in distress into powerful athletes. It's a hilarious way to show kids that princesses can be strong, funny, and totally unexpected. The book also subtly teaches important lessons about not underestimating yourself or others. Parents and kids will love exploring the wild illustrations together, finding new details with each read. The book promises laugh-out-loud moments and plenty of opportunities for imaginative play. Who knows? Your kids might start creating their own wrestling princess characters after reading! "Princess Battle Royale" hits bookstores on August 19th and is perfect for families looking for a unique, energetic, and utterly ridiculous storytime experience. Get ready to body slam boring princess stories and embrace the most entertaining children's book of the year! We also chat with Leslea Wahl who is celebrating her new middle-grade novel "A Summer to Treasure," a heartwarming story about a family road trip through the southwestern United States. The book follows three teens, their parents, and grandmother on a journey that explores family relationships, faith, and personal discovery. Inspired by her own family travels, Wahl weaves in elements of Catholic faith and intergenerational understanding, creating opportunities for meaningful conversations about family history, belief, and personal growth. Set against the backdrop of stunning national parks like the Grand Canyon and Bryce Canyon, the novel delves into themes of technology's impact on family connections and the importance of sharing untold family stories, all while offering a fun and engaging narrative that encourages readers to look beyond surface-level relationships and appreciate the depth of family bonds.

Maybe Betsy is still riding high from the last American Library Association conference she attended, but we're feeling like libraries deserve lots of lovely attention. And what better book to use to that purpose than this well-known collaboration between Patricia C. McKissack and Jerry Pinkney? Can you believe that we've never done a McKissack book before? Pinkney we've definitely done before (including Sam and the Tigers, John Henry, Little Red Riding Hood, and Mirandy and Brother Wind). We discuss how Kate spoils where "someplace special" is pretty early, segregated public benches, rando celebrities, and what it means to work "without permission or pay."

I was recently invited on the podcast Movies That Made Us Gay which features the dynamic co-hosts Peter and Scott. You can listen to the rest of the conversation on their podcast! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBm_LW3_23w&t=5333s“It's the witch from next door!” We take a trip to the theater to discuss the iconic filmed production of Stephen Sondheim's Into the Woods, which was recorded for PBS American Playhouse in 1989. In one of our first opportunities to discuss Sondheim and Broadway on the podcast, we are joined by Andrew Rimby from the Ivory Tower Boiler Room. Many people hold the music from Into the Woods dear, and we are fortunate that its original cast was recorded in the spring of 1989. This Fractured Fairy Tales narrative revolves around a childless baker and his wife, who embark on a quest to start a family after a witch places a curse on them. Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, and a Rapunzel origin story are interwoven throughout the story. Bernadette Peters embodies the Witch with unparalleled talent, delivering a captivating performance in every moment. Joanna Gleason, in her Tony Award-winning role portrays the Baker's Wife with incredible grace and depth. Topics discussed include the 1988 Tony Awards, Rob Marshell's 2014 adaptation, and what Bravo Housewife would make the perfect witch. Thank you for listening, and don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review us on Apple Podcasts!www.patreon.com/moviesthatmadeusgayFacebook/Instagram: @moviesthatmadeusgay

Could fake faith be leading you away from Jesus? Jude warned the early church about his, and it's just as urgent today. In today's message we're opening up the powerful, short letter of Jude. He wrote this letter to sound the alarm for believers to guard the precious faith God has entrusted to us. Get ready to uncover the absolute centrality of Jesus Christ as "the way, the truth, and the life". We'll expose the "genuine fake" imitations that try to twist God's truth, just like those tricky shops in Ephesus! You'll also learn to spot the "wolves in sheep's clothing" that Jude warns us about – those who secretly slip into the church, perverting God's grace and denying Jesus as Lord. We'll use the classic story of Little Red Riding Hood to illustrate this vital spiritual danger. Whether you're a parent trying to raise kids in truth, a young adult wrestling with cultural messages, or a longtime believer needing clarity — this message will equip you to stand firm, spot the fake, and cling to what's real. Watch now and guard the faith entrusted to you. Scripture List: Jude 3-4 John 14.6 1 Corinthians 13 Ephesians 5 John 15.13 John 14.15

Our eighth episode of Lang Fairy Tale tellings is a two-for-one, including both Little Red Riding Hood (which is so short) and Rumpelstiltskin - both tales about freaky masculinity and the dangers of being a lone female.If you are unfamiliar with the Lang Fairy Tales, these seminal collections were assembled between 1889 and 1913 by a married couple, folklorists and translators Nora and Andrew Lang, with most of the work done to compile them completed by Nora, also known as Leonora Blanche Alleyne.Assembled and published in 12 colour-coded "Fairy Books," the corpus the Langs put together included 798 fairy tales from across cultures, many of which had never before been translated into English.They were amongst the most influential books of their time, changing the course of children's literature - although they're hardly just for children, and often deal with quite challenging concepts.Today, purchasing a complete set of the Lang Fairy Books in good condition costs over £4,000 ($5,000+).Thankfully, the collections are all out of copyright, meaning that we can now tell these stories, in podcast form, many for the first time, and share them with a global audience, for free.Our plan is to release the stories between main series of Three Ravens, performing them straight (though with plenty of silly voices) letting the tales speak for themselves in all their madcap, sharp-edged, often quite bizarre glory.The only edits we have made are to amend some culturally-insensitive epithets, which typically pertain to ethnicity, with any such edits made by Eleanor Conlon.Three Ravens is an English Myth and Folklore podcast hosted by award-winning writers Martin Vaux and Eleanor Conlon.Released on Mondays, each weekly episode focuses on one of England's 39 historic counties, exploring the history, folklore and traditions of the area, from ghosts and mermaids to mythical monsters, half-forgotten heroes, bloody legends, and much, much more. Then, and most importantly, the pair take turns to tell a new version of an ancient story from that county - all before discussing what that tale might mean, where it might have come from, and the truths it reveals about England's hidden past...Bonus Episodes are released on Thursdays plus Local Legends episodes on Saturdays - interviews with acclaimed authors, folklorists, podcasters and historians with unique perspectives on that week's county.

Welcoming back Danielle today for a conversation about fairy tales as living, breathing repositories of ancient wisdom and magick. In The Night House: Folklore, Fairy Tales, Rites, and Magick for the Wise and Wild, bestselling author and word-witch Danielle Dulsky peels back the layers of these timeless narratives to reveal their potent role as guides for navigating today's world. Rich with insight and a deep reverence for the ancestral art of storytelling, Dulsky's latest work reclaims the hidden power of fairy tales as spell books, treasure chests, and sacred rites.Historically kept and transmitted by women, fairy tales are distinguishable from other types of folk tales for their magickal and supernatural elements, and because of this, they were often dismissed as trivial domestic fantasies for women and children. The Night House illuminates how this marginalization kept these stories safe from the witch-hunter's noose and allowed women to safely store and transmit their ancient and sacred wisdom. Each of The Night House's nine chapters is a door to an otherworldly realm, unveiling the spiritual and practical magick embedded in tales like “Little Red Riding Hood “and “Cinderella.” By decoding their “glamour spells” and ancestral rites, Dulksy offers a path for readers to reconnect with the Earth, their ancestors, and their own spirits. Mythic images and Jungian universal archetypes arise, and “old ways” are made visible, revealing the call to continue the medicinal work of story keeping for the modern world. Find Danielle: The Night House: https://amzn.to/3R7NuP3Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wolfwomanwitchWebsite: DanielleDulsky.ComDanielle Dulsky is the author of The Night House and numerous other titles including Woman Most Wild, The Holy Wild Grimoire, and Bones & Honey. A heathen visionary, painter, poet, storyteller, and word-witch, she teaches internationally and has facilitated circles, embodiment trainings, communal spell work, and seasonal rituals since 2007. She is the founder of The Hag School and believes in the emerging power of wild collectives and sudden circles of curious dreamers, cunning witches, and rebellious artists in healing our ailing world.

Creator of Himeros.tv David Jacques (Davey Wavey) is joined by drag queen Mossy Stone and sex and intimacy coach Matthew Shur to discuss Matthew's queer reimagining of popular fairy tales, getting more creative with our dirty talk, and how to dip our toes into more risky roleplaying. 

You may think you know the story of Little Red - but it might be very different with a dragon involved....

We dance our way through a very different take on Little Red Riding Hood.

“I'm pissed off and the whole world owes me.” We're taking a look at one of the all-time best cult classics on this week's episode of The Blind Rage Podcast! In FREEWAY, Matthew Bright's delightfully twisted reinterpretation of “Little Red Riding Hood,” we're introduced to Vanessa Lutz (Reese Witherspoon in one of her best roles), a teenage felon from the wrong side of the tracks. After her mother (Amanda Plummer) is arrested for prostitution, Vanessa decides she's going to start over by relocating to her grandmother's trailer in upstate California. On the freeway, her car breaks down, but she is quickly rescued by Bob Woverton (Kiefer Sutherland), a social worker who aids troubled juveniles and portrays himself as her savior. After a long line of manipulative questions meant to let Vanessa drop her guard, Bob reveals his true identity. He is actually a razor-wielding predator known as The I-5 Killer, and his preferred victims are young girls just like Vanessa.

My guest, Deborah Hatswell, Investigator & Researcher of the strange and unexplained, shares her encounters with little people, a rock monster and an Ape Man she witnessed in 1982.  Deborah felt driven to seek answers from others who had experienced and seen the impossible. She shares an extraordinary case of an elderly man named Fred who saw something that he said resembled the wolf from Little Red Riding Hood peering into his window in the early hours.  In Irish lore, these beings are known as ‘Death Wolves' and are said to appear to the sick and dying twelve weeks before the person dies.  (Please be aware that this episode contains some scary elements and a graphic reference to injury that may be upsetting to the sensitive

Click here to send me a text message ...Stories arrive on our TV screen daily, unbidden. We are momentarily entertained or diverted but rarely are we changed.

Game of Thrones. Twilight. Little Red Riding Hood. The wolf is an animal that appears more than most creatures across popular culture. They're known for being fierce, dangerous and scary. Is this what they are like in real life though? Abby Keller, who works at the International Wolf Centre in the US, tells us everything we need to know about wolves.For 45 years in Europe, grey wolves were under the second highest level of protection in European Union laws. This is called Annex Two and offered ‘strict protection'. This month though, EU conservation officials voted to downgrade them to Annex Three. It means they have gone from ‘strictly protected' to just ‘protected'. From March next year, each EU nation will be able to set a yearly figure of how many wolves can legally be killed in their country.The BBC's Emilia Jansson explains the decision and what it means for the wolf population of the EU.Instagram: @bbcwhatintheworld Email: whatintheworld@bbc.co.uk WhatsApp: +44 0330 12 33 22 6 Presenter: Hannah Gelbart Producers: Emily Horler, Benita Barden and Adam Chowdhury Editor: Verity Wilde

Long before 'The Crying Game' and 'Interview With the Vampire', Neil Jordan made a splash with a dark, sumptuous retelling of Little Red Riding Hood based on Angela Carter's feminist interpretation of the text. It's been a cult classic ever since... but what is it saying about werewolves, and what is it saying about people for that matter? Time to dig in and find out!

In this episode of Creative Chats, novelist and storyteller Douglas A. Burton joins us and opens up about exploring archetypal designs and the hero's journey, sharing invaluable insights and experiences that will ignite your creative spirit.  3 Key Takeaways:

When I heard about Karen Witemeyer doing fairy tales in 19th-century Texas, I knew this would be genius.  But when I heard about Cloaked in Beauty, a mashup of Little Red Riding Hood and Sleeping Beauty, her genius took on new proportions. Listen in to see why. note: links may be affiliate links that provide me with a small commission at no extra expense to you.  A girl with a fortune and someone eager to kill her to get it?  That might sound familiar, but nope... Witemeyer has taken a whole new take on both fairy tales, and I love it.  EEEP! Not only that, but we're looking at at least one more book--based on Beauty and the Beast. And... we got a sneak peek at her next series... The Secret Society of Spinsters.  Is that not the most genius idea ever?  I can't wait!  Cloaked in Beauty by Karen Witemeyer  In the heart of the Piney Woods of Texas, Letty Hood has spent the last fifteen years of her life hidden away with her grandmother to escape the deadly schemes of an uncle who wants her dead. Now, with her twenty-first birthday on the horizon, she is forced to accept the escort of a stranger and return to Houston in secret so she can claim a birthright that will make her one of the wealthiest women in Texas. If she lives long enough to inherit. Pinkerton agent Philip Carmichael has one duty: get the Radcliffe heiress home alive. Expecting a spoiled girl, Philip is surprised to encounter a woman of rare strength with a kind soul and keen wit. As they journey together, Letty's resilience wins his admiration, breaking through his hardened cynicism. Yet the threat to Letty grows more menacing with every mile, and Philip fears that keeping her out of harm's way may be just as impossible as keeping her out of his heart. "Little Red Riding Hood" and "Sleeping Beauty" entwine for a romantic fairy tale retelling that explores the power of true love conquering even the darkest of nights. You can learn more about Karen Witemeyer and her books on her WEBSITE.

What a CreepSeason 27, Episode 5Creepy Fairy Tale Origin Stories!Forget everything you learned from animated films… several beloved fairy tales are far from the joyous Disney creatures we have all seen since childhood.

Hello storylovers! This episode we have two great stories for you! Our first is from storyteller Sarah Rundle from West London.  Sarah has performed at Festivals all around the world, she's told tales in museums and theatres, pubs and cafes. I love hearing Sarah's stories because they're often very funny and a bit crazy. And this is very famous old folktale called The Dauntless Girl. It's a slightly spooky story about a girl who thinks she's not scared of anything – even ghosts! If you would like to find out more about Sarah, you can do so HERE. Emily's story is a fishy tale made famous by the fabulous Brothers Grimm. The two brothers Wilhelm and Jacob came from Germany and travelled far and wide collecting folktales and fairy tales. They wrote famous verions of Snow White, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, The Bremen Town Musicians and hundreds of other well-loved tales. This tale is all about making a wish. If you were granted your greatest wish, what would you wish for? We are now on PATREON!

Once Upon A Time… In this episode of Settling Scores, Lenny, Forrest, and Stephanie discuss Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine's fractured fairytale mashup, Into the Woods. Classic stories like Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, and Jack and the Beanstalk are all featured in this surprisingly dark and twisty musical, with a bodycount rivaled only by Sondheim's Sweeney Todd. Is this his funniest score? Can any of the new cast albums stand up to the original? Do community theaters program the show too often?

Legendary pop culture critic Nathan Rabin is back this week to talk about an icon of 90's indie cinema, and it's oft-overlooked sequel! 1996's FREEWAY is a demented and gritty take on "Little Red Riding Hood" that transcends the sleaze of it's surroundings thanks to a witty script and a star-making turn from a young Reese Witherspoon. The sequel, CONFESSIONS OF A TRICKBABY, was a Full Moon pickup from 1997 starring Natasha Lyonne and Vincent Gallo, with whom Nathan has had some very interesting real-life encounters.  Hosted by Jarrod Hornbeck and Steve Guntli  Theme song by Kyle Hornbeck  Logo by Doug McCambridge  Email: puppetmasterscastlefreaks@gmail.com Instagram/Threads: @puppetmasters_castlefreaks  YouTube: @PuppetMastersCastleFreaks  Next week's episode: Sorority Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-o-Rama 2

Like a lot of fairy tales, early versions of “Little Red Riding Hood” were quite a bit different from the story most of us heard growing up. There was no heroic huntsman with an axe, there was no tricking the wolf into a well. At the end of the tale, girl and grandmother were both devoured, and the only happy-ever-after was for the wolf. For most of human history, wolves have been a source of real darkness and fear—and for most of human history, that reputation had been entirely undeserved. But not always. Every now and again, growling, sharp-fanged beasts have wreaked havoc throughout the land, a grim reminder of primordial times when mankind was just another target to fill an empty stomach…and at least part of the origin of the werewolf stories we still love telling today.

This week on The Literary Life, Angelina and Thomas wrap up their series on J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter: Book 1. Angelina and Thomas begin the episode with some thoughts on their Aristotelian approach to literature as seen in this series of episodes. After sharing their commonplace quotes, they dive into their discussion of the last few chapters of the book. Some of the ideas they consider are how the entire plot is a series of symbols, alchemy and the allegory of the soul, and the figure of the “wildman” in the literary tradition. They also go over the characters of the centaurs, the significance of the unicorn, more references to Greek mythology, how Harry exemplifies the “chest” of the well-ordered man, and the great importance of the philosopher's stone as a Christ symbol. Visit HouseofHumaneLetters.com for classes with Angelina, Thomas, and other members of their teaching team. Commonplace Quotes: There is a sort of wild fairy interest in these tales which makes me think them fully better adapted to awaken and soften the heart of childhood that the “good boy” stories which have been in later years composed for them. In the latter case their minds are, as it were, put into the stocks…and the moral always consists in good conduct being crowned with temporal success. The truth is, I would not give one tear shed over Little Red Riding Hood for all the benefit to be derived from a hundred histories of Jimmy Goodchild. Sir Walter Scott, from a letter to a friend “I believe in God, not magic.” In fact, Rowling initially was afraid that if people were aware of her Christian faith, she would give away too much of what's coming in the series. “It I talk too freely about that,” she told a Canadian reporter, “I think the intelligent reader–whether ten [years old] or sixty–will be able to guess what is coming in the books.” Michael Nelson, quoting J. K. Rowling, from “Fantasia: The Gospel According to C. S. Lewis“ A Selection from “The Inferno”, Canto XII By Dante Alighieri, trans. by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow O blind cupidity, O wrath insane, That spurs us onward so in our short life, And in the eternal then so badly steeps us!I saw an ample moat bent like a bow, As one which all the plain encompasses, Conformable to what my Guide had said.And between this and the embankment's foot Centaurs in file were running, armed with arrows, As in the world they used the chase to follow.Beholding us descend, each one stood still, And from the squadron three detached themselves, With bows and arrows in advance selected;And from afar one cried: “Unto what torment Come ye, who down the hillside are descending? Tell us from there; if not, I draw the bow.” Book List: Studies in Classic American Literature by D. H.

June 27th: Muriel Drinkwater Killed (1946) When DNA is successfully recovered from a case it's hard not to get excited about the possibility that the person responsible will finally be brought to justice. However, as we are about to see, DNA doesn't always mean a killer's identification is on the horizon. On June 27th 1946 a young girl lost her life in a case that remains unsolved. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Muriel_Drinkwater, https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/unsolved-murder-12-year-old-19232081, https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/muriel-drinkwater-murder-harold-jones-16207548, https://www.herald.wales/national-news/crime/the-unsolved-murder-of-muriel-drinkwater/, https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-47961404, https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6980183/Murder-Schoolgirl-12-finally-solved-73-years-later.html, https://thetruecrimefiles.com/muriel-drinkwater-murder/ Learn more about your ad choices.
