Episode 39: The Republic of Pirates Part 1 - To Fish Upon Ye Wrecks

This week, the boys set sail into the world of the early 18th century to explore The Republic of Pirates. From desperate sailors-turned-outlaws to the rise of Nassau as the pirate capital of the Caribbean, we dive into the brutal, chaotic, and democratic world of the Golden Age of Piracy. Blackbeard, Charles Vane, Black Sam Bellamy—these weren’t just thieves; they were rebels, tacticians, and legends who built their own rogue society on the high seas. So grab a drink, hoist the black flag, and join us as we uncover the rise (and inevitable fall) of history’s most infamous pirate haven.
