Join us this week in our first episode in a while without a theme...but David didn't seem to get that memo. This week David starts us off with the Middle Ages and non-Latin origin of the term for someone who makes women's hats, then Chris talks about an animal that would not be great as a guest on a podcast since they can't talk. Continuing with his theme of things from the Middle Ages, David talks about the country that has the highest density of castles in the world, before Chris wraps it up with the first "service company" to trademark their uniforms.
