Keep bringing more, and I'll buy it. Horror would be great, maybe a reading on Greek or Roman myths. Pick and I'll jump at it.

TESD saved me

Would you listen to Tell Em Steve Dave Fair-re-re Tale Theater again? Why?

Yes. Sunday Jeff.

Who was your favorite character and why?

Sunday Jeff. Duh.

Have you listened to any of the narrators’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, I have listened to them all. This includes all bonus pods, overkill eps., and I even got in on a little booty time/glory hole now and then. This holds up to everything the boys have done, and this summer especially they seem to be topping themselves every week(except when Q storms out, or Bry calls in 'sick'. Just kidding Bry I love you!!). If you are a first time listener, this audio book really shows what these guys are all about. If you are a tried and true member of the TESDARMY you will love this just like you love everything else they shill. THEY DON'T EVER ASK THE AUDIENCE FOR ANYTHING JUST SHOW SOME DAMN LOVE!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I laughed, I cried, Sunday Jeff voice nuzzled me softly, hay was made.

Amazing stuff from the TESD boys

Where does Tell Em Steve Dave Fair-re-re Tale Theater rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

Theres not many audiobooks that comment on their own character performances and stop to have conversations during the stories. That alone makes this unique. It's definitely one of the funniest

What was one of the most memorable moments of Tell Em Steve Dave Fair-re-re Tale Theater?

Sunday Jeff.

Would you listen to another book narrated by the narrators?

I've listened to hundreds of hours of podcasts by them so why not?

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yep

"Was Rumplestiltskin Satan?" - Walt Flanagan.

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would. It's hardly a book, per se, but it's a book for the 21st century that embraces the technology of the audible format, and does for prose novels what free form verse did for poetry.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Tell Em Steve Dave Fair-re-re Tale Theater?

Walts casual dismissal of Snow White as a gold digger because the dwarves worked in a diamond mine. That was pretty funny. But top marks have to go to the way they tore apart the miller who bragged about his daughter to the King. And the many many unspoken rapes that must have happened in Rumplestiltskin. That King did surely get around.

What about the narrators’s performance did you like?

The voices of the characters were pretty funny.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

The Brothers Grimm were never this Grim.

Any additional comments?

I've listened to it about 6 times so far, and I will listen to it again. It makes me laugh, what I can say?
