11 - Hairy Parsley and the Half-Blind Prince
Manage episode 322604915 series 3287950
If you’ve ever thought your parents were too strict, I have some stories for you that’ll make you realize that it could have been a whole lot worse. We’ve got long-haired ladies locked in looming lofts, longing for a loving lord to liberate them. If everything you know about Rapunzel comes from a certain 2010 animated movie, prepare to have your mind blown, because the original tales about our favorite brave blondie are very different from what you’ve seen before. Prepare for a wild ride on today’s episode of Funklore.
