Summary

Wet your quills, boys! The year is 1660. England has a monarchy again, and a certain London-based naval bureaucrat has a LOT of secrets. This week, we dive wig-first into the most famous chronicle of life during the Stuart Restoration—The Diary of Samuel Pepys. The Forrest Gump of his era, the horny civil servant takes us through the Great Plague of 1665, the Great Fire of 1666, kissing mummies, burying parm in your garden, shtupping your maid, beating your houseboy, and swilling tankards of London's best mead. Say it with me: Ale, wench, repeat.
