Bonjour! Welcome to Coffee Talk with King Francois I,  episode twenty-six. I am your host, Theodore Jander.

In this coffee talk, you will hear the remainder of my conversation with Malgar Thorvik of Thorvik Crafts, an artisan who specializes in the craft of leatherwork. As mentioned in the last episode, due to the original length of the conversation between Malgar and me lasting close to two hours, I split it up between two episodes. So, we will jump into the conversation about 43 seconds before the cliff-hanger ending of the last installment. So, grab a cup of your favorite java, sit back, and enjoy this episode of Coffee Talk with King Francois I. Enjoy!

Malgar’s historical figure of choice with whom to have coffee or tea:

  • Eric the Red

Malgar’s favorite Renaissance word/phrase:

  • Huzzah - an exclamation to express approval or delight
