The Companionship of the Cat and Mouse

from The ShadowBear Story Sessions · host Zach Stewart

We continue our journey through Grimm's Fairy Tales with the second story in the collection, The Companionship of the Cat and Mouse. So many questions with this one: Why would a cat and mouse decide to be roommates? Why would they store their food underneath a church? How many times can a single cat be asked to be a godfather in one summer? Why do cats attend so many christenings? None of these questions are answered and things go about as well as you'd expect when predator and prey become roommates: very very badly. Welcome to the dark, strange, hilarious world of The ShadowBear Story Sessions! Host Zach Stewart digs into the dark, twisted, brutal original versions of the folk tales, fairy tales, myths, and legends that laid the foundation for all the movies, TV, and other stories we know and love today. These aren't the watered-down family-friendly fairy tales you know. These are the grisly originals in all their glory. At the end of each episode I adapt the story into a guaranteed smash hit movie or TV show.
