Kate Larsen and Shuhe Hawkins are living the pirate life in the mountains of Portland, Oregon. Seven Sails Winery, the Portland Pirate Festival, and their bands Bilge Rats and Pyrettes, and B.O.O.M. Plus the ship... Oh, the ship.
Amazing stories in this episodes... shipwrecks, storms, world records, burials at sea... I love people that say yes then figure out how to do what they just agreed to. And Kate and Shuhe are exactly those types.

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.

Episode 100! Thanks for sticking with the show!
Spencer Smilanick aka Captain Spoo Diggity is the lead vocalist of The Pirates Charles. So many good "where did that name come from" stories in this episode! Where the band name came from will have you on the floor. Pull your car over before that section so you don't hit anything.
We'll go deep into how Spencer has crafted his pirate persona and is able to tell deeply personal stories through his music, often without the audience even knowing it. And we'll chat some biz stuff too about what it's like being such a different kind of band in the Los Angeles market.
And, of course, we'll spin a track from their new album Invictus called "Fortress of Five Kings".
And to celebrate the 100th episode of Under The Crossbones, I invited a bunch of past guests to call in and update us on what they're doing now. Interviews are great, but they're just a snapshot in time. Fun to catch up with all the cool folks we've been listening to the last couple years.

BD McGee is a Florida pirate, former New Jersey cop, and maker of all things sharp, metal, and pointy.
We'll get into the dare from his wife that had him making his first blade (out of a what?) to winning the big prize on Forged In Fire on the History Channel. But more importantly you'll hear the absolute joy that he gets out of creating a custom blade for one of his many adoring customers.

We're talkin' ship! Ships in bottles that is. Daniel Siemens is a man from the landlocked state of Colorado keeping up the tradition of building ships in bottles. Definitely a niche hobby that deserves more people doing it.
Dan will give us some of the tricks of the trade including his most useful tool, the materials he uses, and of course, how he gets the darn thing in the bottle.
And if you're interested in trying it out yourself, Daniel gives lots of great resources for getting started.
