04 Thomas Howard

Piratey Event!

Jamie and I will be at this year's online Intelligent Speech Conference! The conference has been going since 2019 and is full of history podcasters and other content creators. We are honoured to be back on the 8th of Feb. We will be talking about the deception on the public in regards to pirates. Did they have peg legs? What are the parrots about? Did they all shout "Arrrr!"? Join

03 William Kidd

Jan 22 2025 105 mins  
Our third pirate is one of the most famous pirates of the time. He may not be too well known now, but back in pirate times he was up there with the best of them. But why? What makes Kidd so special? And more importantly, do we finally have a good ship name?

02 Thomas Tew

Jan 08 2025 86 mins  
Our second pirate is the aptly named Thomas Tew. We saw Tew in Avery's episode when Avery took command of the pirate fleet. But how did Tew do on the attack? And just how friendly was his ship? Find out!
