The Grindicorn ...

The Grindicorn ...

The Grindicorn of Productivity Valley is an absurd bedtime story about Bernard, a magnificent, overworked Grindicorn who lives in the kingdom of Productivity Valley and spends his days tirelessly serving his demanding owner, the pompous and thoroughly unpleasant Lord Maximus.

Despite Bernard’s loyalty and endless labor, Lord Maximus provides little in return. Bernard’s stable is neglected, his needs are ignored, and somehow he is always expected to do more. But one peculiar morning, Bernard simply stops working.

Nothing is wrong with him. He isn’t sick. He isn’t injured. He hasn’t lost his magic.

He’s just tired of being mistreated.

As Lord Maximus becomes increasingly outraged that his most dependable worker has suddenly stopped performing, Bernard quietly discovers something his lord never expected: sometimes the most powerful thing an overworked creature can do is absolutely nothing.

A whimsical, ridiculous tale about a terrible boss, burnout, boundaries, and the moment a loyal worker realizes that being useful doesn’t mean being used.

[LIVE RECORDED EPISODE: THE HOLE THAT FIXED EVERYTHING]


Welcome to *This Never Happened*, a collection of bedtime stories for adults who need therapy... or at least a really good laugh. Each episode is a journey into the wonderfully impossible. You'll meet suspicious black holes, emotionally unavailable chameleons, portals that definitely violate several laws of physics, and other completely fabricated nonsense that absolutely, positively never happened.


These stories drift somewhere between comedy, dream logic, philosophy, and the kind of thought you have at 2:17 a.m. when you're staring at the ceiling wondering how life got so weird. Some stories are absurd. Some are oddly poetic.


Some may sound like they mean something. And maybe they do. Or maybe your brain is just connecting dots that were never meant to be connected.


Either way, you're welcome to look for hidden meanings, accidental wisdom, or metaphors disguised as ridiculous adventures. We won't stop you.


So get comfortable, silence your common sense, and prepare to wander through worlds where logic takes a personal day and imagination is left unsupervised. Just remember: none of this is true. None of it ever happened. Probably.
