The Farmer and the Badger

In this episode of Tales of Bedlam, we dive into a wickedly twisted tale from Japanese folklore: The Farmer and the Badger (Kachikachiyama). When a mischievous badger becomes a murderous shapeshifter with a taste for revenge, things escalate quickly—badger soup, identity theft, and a vengeful rabbit with a plan.

Join hosts Micah and Dustin as they inject chaotic commentary, awkward history lessons, and side-splitting banter into this surprisingly dark tale. You’ll laugh, cringe, and maybe even think twice before trusting an animal with shapeshifting abilities.

It’s fairy tale storytelling—uncensored, unhinged, and unforgettable.

What do you think—was the badger the worst villain yet? Did the rabbit go too far (or not far enough)?
