patrons, here is your second bonus of April 2025 and our third episode in the book club series on Giovanni Boccaccio's The Decameron. we rejoin our ten fancy ladies and gentlemen hiding away from the Black Death in a villa outside Florence in 1348. for the ten Day Two stories, Filomena has been made the queen and she chose a topic of misadventures with happy endings. we explore six of these and discuss everything from a grifter who is tortured for being Florentine, three idiot uncles who squander their inheritance, a woman named Alatiel screwing her way across the Mediterranean, and an old dude with a young wife. enjoy!

Luke's pronunciation of Algarve (where I grew up) is too funny, but also painful. For future reference, you can forget there's an "e" at the end of it, you'll be closer to how you pronounce it.
