Hello, I'm Micah, AKA Knob Twister, a host from the podcast you're about to fill your ear holes with. My co-host Dustin, AKA Sofa Sitter, and I research, read, and discuss fairy tales worldwide. The episodes are 60% fun, 10% educational, and 37% crazy. But, alas, all good things do end, and Tales of Bedlam disappeared for a few years. We are replaying all old episodes until June 2024 and then releasing new and never-before-heard episodes. Enjoy the show.
