We're BACK to hard-hitting literary analysis without ANY dirty jokes! Definitely for reals! 
Toni DiNardo takes us on a journey through the first fragment of the Canterbury Tales--join us as we discuss sexy priests, wet humors, Monty Python, and the true timelessness of ass-kissing jokes. 

*A QUICK NOTE: Toni would like you all to know that she cannot believe she slipped up and said Canterbury Cathedral instead of Westminster Cathedral, and she will be flagellating herself forthwith; similarly, there may or may not be one instance where someone says Shakespeare and CLEARLY means Chaucer. We're so sorry! We're not worthy! Punish us, father, we've--y'know what? That's probably enough of that. 

If you'd like more of Toni, you can find her on Twitter @MotherFoolian! You can find more of US, along with sources and other nonsense, at didntreaditpod.com. Send sexy priest content to [email protected] or tag us @didntreadit on Instagram or Twitter!

XOXO
