About this episode

Today's episode is an adaptation of an Italian fable, all about a busy old town in Italy called Atri. It was a very nice place to live so the town grew and grew until eventually there were so many people that the courthouse was completely overwhelmed with everyone's issues. Listen along to find out how the King decided to make sure everyone got the justice they deserved in a very unconventional way.
