Hey there, grown -ups, I'm Carly Q.
from the super secret podcast called Who When Wow Mystery Edition.
You know I'm a big fan of stories, especially old ones, but sometimes I feel like those old stories need a little, hmm, what's the word, remix.
This is why I am so excited about a new podcast your entire family will love.
From Wondery and Tinkercast, it's a new Kids and Families podcast, Once Upon a Beat.
In every episode, you can join DJ Fuchs and his trusty turntable Baby Scratch for a jam -packed, music -filled story party.
DJ Fuchs remixes your favorite fairy tales with hip -hop beats and a modern spin for a new generation.
And he doesn't just bring you the music, he brings you the message.
Where hip -hop and fables meet, it's Once Upon a Beat.
Follow Once Upon a Beat on the Wondery app or wherever you get your podcasts.
New episodes are available everywhere starting May 1st.
Alright, I've got a clip from Once Upon a Beat all cued up for you, so let's take it for a spin.
Roll it! I don't just bring you the music, I bring you the message.
And today, I've got a story that's his oldest time, about a slick -talkin' little rabbit with a gift for rhyme.
He's got a talent for spinning tall tales without even trying.
That's right, Baby Scratch, Brair Rabbit!
No, no, not rabbit, I said RAPID!
Although, Brair Rabbit is also a rabbit.
Sometimes he speaks the truth, other times he might be lyin'.
But no matter what story he's sellin', you know folks are buyin'.
Time to begin, so let's dive right in.
Where hip -hop and fables meet?
You know we call it...
Once Upon a Beat. Today, Brair Rabbit and his friends are on their way to school.
Brair Rabbit's main goal is to be the king of talk and cool.
He always gets what he wants because he couldn't be slicker.
He wants his friends to trust his skill.
They think he's just a kiddo.
Brair Rabbit knows he's the smoothest of the smooth, and he'll make his friends reconsider.
Good morning, fellow school bus kids.
Time to make some space.
The super coolest that there is, Brair Rabbit's in the place.
Whew! Stuff being so popular.
So here's what I'm gonna do.
Sally Squirrel, and Gordon Chipmunk?
Yeah, what? Congrats.
I'm comin' to sit with you.
Sure! Awesome. Hey, what's good, you two?
Hey, Brair Rabbit, can you go easy on life today?
I'm not in the mood.
Uh -oh. Tell me what's wrong, and don't dilly -dally.
I wanna know what's up, little squirrel Sally.
Oh, I feel bummed. The cool cat concert is this weekend.
I tried, and I tried, but I couldn't wait online long enough to get a ticket.
Neither did Gordon Chipmunk.
Yeah, but that's mostly because I forgot to try.
Oh, that concert is gonna be so hype.
Brair Rabbit said nothing, but there was a gleam in his eyes.
It just took a sec for his friends to realize.
Wait, Brair Rabbit.
Do you have your tickets already?
You think I buy tickets?
You know I'm so good I could talk my way in, cause I got the verses.
Who's smooth like butter and never rehearses?
Me. The B -R -E -R -R -A -P -I -T.
Brair Rabbit, you think you can talk your way into and out of anything.
That's because I can.
And that's what I'm gonna do.
I'm gonna get myself in, and I can get you in, too.
Oh, thank you, Brair Rabbit.
I'm so excited. What should I wear?
Oh, Gordon. Don't believe him.
Yeah, baby Scratch.
Brair Rabbit was going all in.
He really wanted to impress his friends.
A sold out concert?
Now that's a big ask.
But Brair Rabbit believed that he was up to the task.
Besides, the concert wasn't until the end of the week.
All he really wanted was for his friends to respect his cool and his technique.
Huh? Brair Rabbit, are you teasing me about the tickets?
We chipmunks are known to be gullible.
And we squirrels are not.
You're gonna need to convince us that your skills of persuasion are that great.
Wait. Now my friends are thinking Brair Rabbit is a fake?
I'm the coolest of the cool talkers.
Make no mistake. Check it.
I'm dropping logic with that automatic rabbit magic.
I'm so hypnotic, making people move like rapid transit.
Yo, I'm a savage with the language down to average status.
Yo, I'm the baddest legendary till this planet vanish.
Who got that silver tongue?
Say anything and it will be done.
I'm telling some bills skills by the ton if you got a better story, then tell me one.
Brair Rabbit, they can have it.
Miles so fast, they can stare at it.
For the day I was born till I'm terrigatic, my signal's strong and I clear the static.
Gotta wait with words so they observe the way I swerve.
Cause I'm dishing it out.
Everyone listening now.
I'm kicking the staves and never slowing it down.
Competitive, stubborn to tell.
I'm dropping logic with that automatic rabbit magic.
I'm so hypnotic, making people move like rapid transit.
Yo, I'm a savage with the language down to average status.
Yo, I'm the baddest legendary till this planet vanish.
So little bit. More than a little bit.
Whitty gets killed when he's spittin' it.
Isn't it wild? Legitimate.
Wait till the rhythm hits.
So deep like he's amphibious.
Here he is now. Kids are like, wow, open his mouth and he's droppin' it.
Wow, the audience loud.
They talkin' about that number one rapper they call it a mile.
Yo, rare rap it. There you have it.
Rap so fast that I tear the fabric.
It's space and time you can barely grasp it.
Magic spell you can hear me cast it.
I can make anything happen cause when I start rapping the passion's deep in my soul.
My lyrics are blasting and people are clapping and that's when I'm in control.
I'm dropping logic with that automatic rabbit magic.
I'm so hypnotic, making people move like rapid transit.
Yo, I'm a savage with the language down to average status.
Yo, I'm the baddest legendary till this planet vanish.
Well, I'll tell you what, there is no mystery about what I am listening to this weekend.
