In this hilariously grim episode of Tales of Bedlam, hosts Micah (Knob Twister) and Dustin (Sofa Sitter) tackle the eerie Canadian fairy tale “The Children with One Eye.” Through irreverent banter, absurd tangents, and spontaneous sound effects, they guide listeners through the story of two unruly siblings whose curiosity and disobedience lead to a fiery punishment—literally. When the children defy their mother’s warning and tamper with a pot of boiling bear fat, the consequences are both blinding and permanent.
But don’t worry—it’s not all doom and gloom. An old woman from the land of the little people arrives to offer a mystical (and mildly impractical) solution: one magical eye to share between them. Hilarity ensues as the hosts question the logistics of eye-sharing, draw comparisons to 1980s fantasy films, and dive deep into the tale’s bizarre morality.
Join us for another classic blend of folklore, comedy, and cultural curiosity on Tales of Bedlam.
