The emperor and the pope walk into a barber shop and make the current news cycle spin yet another fancy tale of déjà vu

**just a reminder: I'm no longer posting transcripts... 

instead, each webpage associated with the corresponding episode will be limited to Credits and interesting links...

Thanks...**

Part 1 [03:18] - In which the Grimms use a simple case of fairytale déjà vu to revisit an old, personal grudge

Part 2 [17:51] - In which we get a depressing surge of will power, followed by a Grimm little bible verse — one that has nothing at all to do with Pulp Fiction, or any other Hollywood film. I swear to god!

Part 3 [29:08] - In which we catch a replay of some famous super bowl moments, star in a one-word history re-enactment, and find the news déjà vu-streaming all over, again

Part 4 [1:12:01] - In which we read a brief editorial from the 14th century, write a little op-ed of our own, and finally decide to call a Grimmism a Grimmism
