All five members of the Jolly Rogers are on the show today!  We delve into the long running band's epic pirate music career.

In this episode:

• The song that Disney stole from them
• The insanely cool gig in Krakow, Poland and the hidden history of sea chanteys in Poland.
• What it's like to have written songs that are standards in the pirate genre
• Their "goofy" ethos and where it came from

Under The Crossbones is a podcast all about pirate culture.  Your host Phil Johnson (comedian, musician, and pirate geek) interviews the most interesting people in the pirate subculture: Actors, Authors, Historians, Musicians, Artists, Festival Founders, Clothing and Prop Designers, Treasure Hunters, Archaeologists, and more. 

Since I totally spaced out on putting a Jolly Rogers song in the episode... Sorry.  Been traveling and sleep deprived... Here's one of their more well known tracks, "Curvy Girls".  https://youtu.be/vtr2J0zcQDo

Here's their version of "The Derelict" that accidentally became "traditional" and was co-opted by Disney for Pirates of the Caribbean.  (I wasn't able to find a clip of its use in the film.)  https://youtu.be/Hlob75PqeSw

Here's a cool vintage clip of The Clancy Brothers as mentioned by the guys as an influence on their music and stage show.  https://youtu.be/qdl-yB0MapI

And since they mentioned Bounding Main, here's a tune from them too!  https://youtu.be/J34o18QLPB4

Sam Conniff is an entrepreneur and author of the book "Be More Pirate".  It's an examination of how pirates rewrote the rules of their time and weaponized storytelling to change the world around them.  And then, how we use those lessons in our own time to make our world better?

In this episode:

• How Sam's business Livity worked with endangered kids to help them contribute to the way companies engage with them
• How he used pirate publicity tactics to launch his book and is now moving into community building
• How companies can rewrite their own rules and draft their own pirate codes
• What might have happened if the pirate community in Nassau had been allowed to remain and develop?
