XL. RIP Chaucer, You Would've Loved the Godfather: The Miller's Tale and the Reeve's Tale by Geoffrey Chaucer
The pilgrimage continues! Niko and Tatiana dive into some of the most famous stories from the Canterbury Tales: the Miller's Tale and the Reeve's Tale. They discuss entertainment and morals, what it means to repay a tale, and why the Reeve's tale is a bad tale. A long digression on the Godfather at the end of the episode awaits.
