Hope you are ready to weigh anchor, because it's Pat's birthday week and The History Things Podcast is taking on a topic he has wanted to do for a long time, that's right, Piracy!
First off, the boys dive into some of their home states stories of piracy, ranging from the Chesapeake Bay, the coast of Maine and even the Great Lakes. Afterwards they bring in a heavy hitter, Kevin P. Duffus, (minute marker 1:00:15) a researcher and author who specializes in North Carolina history, to talk about the most infamous and perhaps most misunderstood pirate, Black Beard!
