Brigada Pirata

For extended show notes and more pirate goodies, visit www.UnderTheCrossbones.com  

 

On this episode we sit down with all the members of Brigada Pirata, Turin, Italy's best (and probably only) pirate band.

These dudes are tons of fun and super high energy.  In between telling us about their extremely varied musical backgrounds, they'll break out in spontaneous song.

The accents run thick and deep, but this is a really fun talk that you might have to listen to a couple times to catch all the gems. 

Plus comedy from Phil Johnson (that's me!) and a song called "Sails and Guns" from Brigada Pirata.

Captain Davy Duvall

Captain Davy is a former stuntman turned pirate entertainer.  And 26 years in, he's one of the longest running pirate entertainment acts around.

We talk about what made him go into a pirate character at a time when pirate fandom was at a low point and how it's evolved over the years. 

Plus comedy from Aniria and a song called "New Worlds" from Captain Davy and Kirby Jake.

Salty Sam's Pirate Cruise

For extended show notes and more pirate goodies, visit www.UnderTheCrossbones.com  

 

Coming to you from Chicago this week with an interview I recorded a couple weeks ago in Florida with Veta, Ashley, and Mike of Salty Sam's Pirate Cruise in Fort Myers.

The task of putting on a show for all age groups in the confines of a ship is an interesting one.  And we'll dig into what goes into their show, how they run it, and where their characters come from.

And a little pleading/ranting/complaining and a story about a man in a truck from me at the beginning.  

Plus comedy from Pete Munoz and a song called "Burning Van" from Big Mean Sound Machine.

Courtney and Kim from Queen Anne's Revenge

For extended show notes and more pirate goodies, visit www.UnderTheCrossbones.com  

Another episode of Blackbeard stories? Yes! But from a different angle. Courtney Page and Kim Kenyon are part of the Queen Anne's Revenge wreck project.  

They've got great stories about the wreck itself and their part in bringing all the cool stuff up to the surface for conservation.  Plus we'll get the origin stories of how they each came to be on the project. 

Plus comedy from Kristee Ono and a song called "Consciousness Express" from Diamond D and the Stargazers.
