Aha, this is NOT the goose that laid the golden egg, as I had thought when I began. No, this is much more fun, there isn't really an obvious lesson to learn, and I admit I had to edit out a few times I started giggling while recording.

The uncommon word in this particular story is "sexton," and they're someone who looks after a church and churchyard. It doesn't matter to the story in any meaningful way, but I've got you covered just in case your kids are feeling inquisitive!

And hey, here's something I learned! There's always beer and wine to drink because they didn't have sanitary water! Yay for learning things (and don't give alcohol to your kids. Probably. I mean, this is just a podcast, I'm not trying to tell you how to raise your kids or anything...)

Thanks for listening!
