Ahoy misfits ahoy t' our pirate spectacular episode! This week I'm joined by pirate historian Eric Lavender to discuss all things pirates.  Eric breaks down the truth behind Hollywoods depiction of pirates, what life was actually like on the seven seas, and the real life of Black beard or should I say Edward Beard!

Go support our good friend Eric over at Charleston Pirate Tours and make sure to go take a ghost tour or a pirate tour next time you're in Charleston South Carolina!  Make sure to also check out the Captains Vlog and follow them on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook!
