    Shownotes

    If you've been following the Kooky Spooky Countdown, it has all been leading up to this: Elise Parisian, the host of Unspookable, sits down with Adam Gidwitz, the creator and host of Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest and New York Times best-selling author, to talk about scary stories themselves. Why do we tell them? What purpose do they serve? And what has Adam learned in all his years of studying and retelling Grimms’ Fairy Tales? All with a little help from our SCARE-rator, Jonathan Cormur, the host of Dorktales Storytime. It’s a conversation you don’t want to miss.


    The Kooky Spooky Countdown

    Three award-winning, family-favorite children’s podcasts - Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest (Pinna), Unspookable (Soundsington Media), and Dorktales Storytime - have teamed up this October for the Kooky Spooky Countdown, a seasonal, screen-free listening event for families and classrooms everywhere. Participants are challenged to listen to 13 “spooky-ish” podcast episodes to earn rewards, including exclusive congratulatory videos from all three podcast hosts.

    The challenge celebrates October’s festivities with safe thrills, playful storytelling, and engaging experiences. It launches on October 2nd and runs until October 31, 2025. Families and classrooms can download the challenge materials at https://jonincharacter.com/kooky-spooky-countdown/.

    How It Works

    The countdown challenges participants to listen to 13 curated playfully spooky episodes across all three podcasts, mark their progress on a printable tracker, and celebrate their accomplishments with an official certificate, award cards, exclusive host video messages, and a special crossover finale episode featuring Unspookable’s Elise Parisian interview with New York Times bestselling author Adam Gidwitz.

    Why It Matters

    The Kooky Spooky Countdown Challenge brings the best in family-friendly podcasts together for a seasonal, audio-only experience. It also highlights the educational benefits of podcasts: improving listening skills, strengthening social-emotional growth, and inspiring curiosity about cultural heritage and folklore.


    About the Podcasts

    Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest (Pinna)

    It's Grimm fairy tales like you've never heard before! On every episode of Pinna Original Grimm, Grimmer, Grimmest, bestselling author Adam Gidwitz retells a classic fairy tale to a group of inquisitive kids, who anticipate plot twists, crack jokes, and share their own perspectives on these very Grimm stories.

    Unspookable (Soundsington Media)

    Unspookable is a family-friendly podcast that explores the history, brain science, and real-world influences behind spooky stories, myths, and urban legends. Host Elise Parisian takes the scare out of spooky stories by digging into the real history behind them, the cool facts, and why people keep telling them.

    We are excited to share a recent episode of the Kids Listen podcast Big Emotions: Kids Listen Mashups About Feelings featuring Unspookable and our friends at At Your Level and Koala Shine and hosted by the amazing Molly Bloom (Brains On! & Smash Boom Best)! Give it a listen and if you want to hear more, there are loads more episodes here.

    ---

    Embarrassment & Pride (Part 1) 😳🏆

    Welcome back to Big Emotions! This week we’re hiding behind the sofa, and then jumping in front of the camera! Embarrassment and pride might seem like opposites, but they’re really two sides of the same coin. Both are “self-conscious” emotions that help us reflect on how we show up in the world. In this episode, we explore the squirmy moments that make our cheeks burn and the warm glows that make our hearts swell - and how both feelings can teach us about ourselves, our values, and the people we care about.

Each episode pairs two related emotions, sharing original clips and reflections to help kids (and grownups!) understand, name, and navigate their feelings.

    This week we are excited to introduce you to one of our favorite podcasts being made today, Twenty Thousand Hertz, a family-friendly podcast that tells the stories behind the world's most recognizable and interesting sounds. And this episode features something we can all love... Minecraft.


    Since its official release in 2011, Minecraft has grown from a small, experimental indie game into the best-selling video game of all time. Today, the game's haunting music and quirky sound effects are just as iconic as its blocky visuals. In this episode, composer and sound designer Daniel Rosenfeld (also known as C418) unpacks how he created the original music and sounds for the game.

    Your guide on this sonic journey is Dallas Taylor, a sound expert who's been featured in The New York Times, NPR, and is a Ted Mainstage speaker.

    This episode was written and produced by Leila Battison.


    To find out more about Twenty Thousand Hertz, you can follow the show on

    Twitter, Facebook, & Reddit or on their website www.20k.org

    Washington Irving's 1820 tale of a headless horseman who terrorizes the village of Sleepy Hollow is widely considered to be one of the first American ghost stories and, we'd argue, still one of the scariest. Why has this tale and this figure endured for over 200 years inspiring films, cartoons, games, and even entire podcasts? We talk this week with David Kreizman, the CCO of Gen-Z Media and Co-Creator and Writer of their hit show The Hollow to find out. That and more on this episode of Unspookable.


    The Hollow is available now wherever you get your podcasts.

    In this episode we reference Carvel Wallace's book Another Word for Love: A Memoir, which we definitely recommend for our adult listeners! It does contain some explicit content, so portions of it that may not be suitable for all ages.

    What if we told you that 10,000 years ago there was a sophisticated society ruled by the children of the sea god Poseidon, with stunning architecture and quality of life similar to our own?
