Venture through the creaking door if you dare. In this episode, JR relates the batsh*t beliefs of a devoted mother who loved her children to a fault.
Welcome to northern Italy, 1939. Under the fascist stylings of Mussolini, the nation teeters on the brink of war. Leonarda Cianciulli is a humble widow determined to keep her children safe from the horrors of conflict, inflation, bad luck, indigestion and a million other enemies - small and large - anything which threatens to harm her loin’s most magnificent discharges.
Cianciulli has devised a divine plan to cleanse the evil from her midst. Using (dark) arts and crafts, lye, distilled water, an ax, an unhealthy dollop of OCD, and a belief system doing some massive heavy lifting, Cianciulli has almost everything she needs. She's missing just one ingredient...but it's nothing she can't borrow from a neighbor.
Join us by the fire for potent drinks filled with tiny umbrellas and a cannabis combo platter that will keep you tripping over your own tongue, as JR comes clean with the crew about Leonarda Cianciulli, the Soap Maker of Correggio - or Bubbles, if you’re nasty.
