The Hansel and Gretel Code

Hansel and Gretel may seem like a simple fairy tale, but the real meaning hidden between its lines has nothing to do with any simplistic "moral of the story"... like a real-life Da Vinci Code — Hansel and Gretel is a literary and cultural treasure map filled with secret clues meant only for people like us to follow... clues that will lead us to a meaningful, real-life treasure that's been lost for over 200 years... along the way, we'll discover that the real villains of the story are still with us, and they're not only people you've only heard of — some of them are people you actually know... this is the podcast for people who love fairytales, and who'd love to find out what they really mean... in the Hansel and Gretel Code, we'll be reading from the 1810 manuscript version of the story and we'll be examining the many, multi-faceted clues that are packed into each of its 42 sentences... each of those clues will not only entertain the hell out of you, they're going to change the way you see the world and everyone in it... come on this trip through Hansel and Gretel's forest with me and I guarantee you're going to learn how to read fairytale clues like this for yourself.....
