Avast ye mateys! It's time to discuss the golden age of piracy as we watch the Black Sails, a series that sets the stage for the classic novel Treasure Island. Hosts Andy and Ronnie chat about pirates, politics, and queer theory to give context to this amazing show and moment in the history of seafaring.
Episode Notes
We pour one out for two legends as we discuss Chapter XXVII of Black Sails. We will never be the same! Is that John Silver or Ben Gibbard because he is following Flint into the Dark! And Edward Teach is coming back!
