Going Blackberrying: Swearing in ”The Pardoner’s Tale” (The Canterbury Tales Part 2.5)

WARNING: Contains strong language.

In this Subcast minisode, I look at what would have been considered foul language in the Middle Ages.  If you are of a sensitive disposition or a delicate constitution, if you are prone to the vapors or simply upright in your rectitude,  might I suggest that you listen to this episode with your fingers plugged firmly into your ears?  It may be helpful to also hum a happy tune.
