Make sure the kids aren't around! Just because you're a grown-up doesn't mean you can't enjoy the art of the children's bedtime story. Nick Offerman presents this collection of 15 short stories written in the style of a classic kid's tale, but with a decidedly dark and adult approach.
What really happened after Snow White died, from the perspective of the one medically trained dwarf? A naive wizard professor reports back from the trenches of an underprivileged school of magic. A middle age man is haunted by the voices of his own aging body.
The stories will make you laugh, cry and probably squirm a little. All performed by actors like Patrick Stewart, Alia Shawkat, Ellen Page, Mike Birbiglia, and many more.

I enjoyed every story in this podcast as much as I enjoyed volume 1. Nick Offerman is the presenter. He's hilarious. I love his dry, sarcastic voice. Each story is performed by a different actor and my favourites were Patrick Stewart and Ellen Page. The stories themselves are wide ranging in subject matter and length. No story is the same so I never knew what to expect with each episode. I loved the fact the stories start of sounding quite traditional in a one upon a time sense and start to get darker and crazier. Well worth a listen to.
