Episode notes

Anselmo catches the maid one night with the guy who she's carrying on with. And he, but I assume because she's like a woman and she's not allowed to do anything, that's... Yes, and it is ... I don't think that's all of it, but I think that's a lot of it. He's mad that some other man is coming in out of his house without his knowledge,. Because it's like sneaking into the window or whatever.Yeah, so we do that. Everybody has a good laugh, and then we get back into the cockamamie scheme. Right into the cockling story. No one wants to stop.

Enjoy another episode of our newest show-within-a-show! We're reading Edith Grossman's translation of Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes a few chapters at a time. Some Patreon supporters get these episodes monthly, but every two months we'll combine them for general consumption.

These episodes cover Chapters 28-42.

In Episode 5, Don Quixote rejoins the party. and everyone decides to shack up in the only inn/castle in all of Spain. Secondary characters step into the spotlight with their own stories, including a novel-within-a-novel called The Man Who Was Recklessly Curious.

In Episode 6, Don Quixote takes the backseat for a few more chapters. We have to close the book on Cardenio's Crew, finish the story of the Two Friends, and meet a few more ancillary characters who just love this inn.
