Honestly, I should have called this The Magic Fish and the Argument, but I've already recorded the intro and outro and I'm not re-recording it now. This story is based on The Fisherman and His Wife by the Brothers Grimm and/or The Tale of the Fisherman and the Fish by Alexander Pushkin. Enjoy!

Today’s tale comes from Fairy and Folktales of the Irish Peasantry collected by William Butler Yeats. The story is called “Soul Cages” and interestingly enough it, too, is about a fisherman. Maybe I have my theme for this season, eh?

A fisherman foolishness gets him into trouble and his clever wife rescues him. Also a net is made!

This is a teaser for Tangling Tales because I am a horrible procrastinator and not at all prepared.
