A Barrel of Oranges is the podcast where history and pop culture collide — a fun and sometimes irreverent look at maritime history through media on the screen or on the page. Originally inspired by the hit tv series 'Our Flag Means Death'.

We're back (but a bit rusty)! After a long hiatus, Kim and Pam have rebooted A Barrel of Oranges for a new adventure on the high seas. This week we're "diving into" the mysteries of the Bermuda Triangle. Join us as we sift through the stories of the two most well-known Bermuda Triangle mysteries: the USS Cyclops (1918) and Flight 19 (1945), before chatting about an under-the-radar tv movie The Triangle (2001) that we enjoyed when we were younger. The question remains: is it as scary as we remember?

Raise your motherf*ckin' glasses!
It's time to party on the Revenge because this week we're tracing the origins of the sea goddess Calypso and her many pop culture iterations! Kim and Pam talk about everything from Caribbean folk music traditions to Jacques Cousteau and the MCU. And of course we share our love for OFMD's Wee John and his Calypso drag persona.
