Captain Alex Piccolo is the host of Pirate Theater, a new YouTube series for people who want to bone up on their pirate stuff.
We'll dig into Alex's background with theater, film, Ren Faires, and Rocky Horror. And we'll talk about what happens when he lays out a fact that turns out to be wrong.
We also do a shorty call with Darren Simon about his new book "Dangerous Waters"!
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.
