About this listen

 Grimmish Seconds delivers daily one-minute shorts, narrated by Margaret Scott — the same British voice that guides you through the full fairy tales in Brothers Grimm – rebooted. These tales have been newly brought into today’s language, while rooted in Margaret Hunt’s classic English translations of the German originals.

Each short sparks curiosity, uncovers hidden themes, and reveals the darker, sharper, or more playful side of stories you thought you knew. Whether playful for kids, ironic for Gen Z, literary for adult fairy-tale fans, gritty for true-crime lovers, factual for educators, empowering for feminists, healing for those on a mental-health journey — or simply for (grand)parents too tired to read timeless fairy tales aloud — every short speaks in a voice that resonates.

All week long, these daily clips tie back to the newest full episode of Brothers Grimm – rebooted. You’ll find the full series on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Spreaker — or unlock every episode of the season at once for binge listening on Patreon. Brief enough for your scroll, yet powerful enough to draw you into the full story.


🎧 Listen now — reimagined for today and narrated by Margaret Scott in her calm British accent, the kind of voice these tales were always meant to be told in.

You can follow me for free on Patreon to stay close to new drops, updates, and story reflections — no subscription required.

And if you're ready for the full experience, you can get instant access to the entire season on Patreon — a simple one-time purchase for listeners who prefer binge-listening without subscriptions.
