S2E8 "Slipper and the Rose and Why Adults Should Enjoy Fairytales"
We often relegate fairytales to children thinking that when we reach a certain agedness we no longer need them. If we do this, we deprive ourselves of respite and imagination, the wonderment of grace, and how to face mortality and the vanity of life.
This week, your favorite dynamic duo explore the magic of the Cinderella story retold with emotional and beautiful depth in "The Slipper and the Rose".
They also accidently fall into the world of Stephen Lawhead's "Song of Albion " Trilogy, a perfect example of how the secondary world (or fairy land) and primary (real world) feed into each other and how the two support each other.

S2E7 "Spinning: Myth, History, Craft"
Craft is so much more than the actual skill and tools that are required to create a desired outcome. This is seen most clearly in the the craft of spinning. Myth, history, tales, and more a twisted up in every yard of yarn produced.
Our dynamic duo explores these depths looking at such materials as "The Odyssey" and "Sleeping Beauty". Surprisingly, the time space continuum didn't come up but we all know it's there, for when spinning, one is connected to time past in the present looking towards the future.
