Steve Boehm of Pirates For Sail

Nick Tyler is a pirate fan, Lego nut, writer, and comedian out of Nottingham, England.  And his Captain Pigheart stories are a treat for any (adult) pirate fan.  Not for the kiddies.  But absolutely hilarious.

Nick and I go everywhere in this conversation: pirates, comedy, writing techniques, Lego, Transformers... This one's a thousand miles wide. :)

Steve Boehm of Pirates For Sail

Steve Boehm is the captain and "adult" of the band Pirates For Sail. (Puns!)  We dig into the group's inner workings to see how they came about and got that super lush harmony sound they're so good at.

Treasure Hunter Carl Fismer

Carl Fismer lives the life of an adventurer. The type of life that they make books, movies and video games about. Affectionately called "Fizz", he's a treasure hunter that has dived some of the world's most famous shipwrecks including the Atocha and the 1715 and 1733 Spanish treasure fleets.

And in this talk, tales of peril, dangerous people, and daring escapes.  And popcorn.  Carl is like an underwater Indiana Jones (thankfully minus Shia Laboeuf.)

Then in the aftermath we'll find out what's happening with The Scurvy Crew now as well as Dan's geek rock outfit Sci Fried.

And of course we'll hear some music.  "Broadside", one of the Scurvy Crew's biggest hits.
