Jester of Tonga December 3, 2008

Joe and his engaging robot Stanley tell the very true and very dramatically complicated story of Jesse Bogdonoff, the sensational and modern-day Court Jester to the Tongan Royal Court (he was appointed in 1999). Twenty suitcases packed full with island lore spill their secrets, scandals and adventures onto the stage. Jaw-dropping stories diverge, mountains of money are exchanged and fish are bombed out of the water. Silovsky masterfully merges his first hand knowledge of Bogdonoff and all things Tongan with his technological expertise, and takes us on an unforgettable trip to the island nation.
