In this episode, the crew dives deep into One Piece chapters 1153 to 1159—where Oda finally connects the dots we've been waiting for. From the legendary rise of Loki and Harald, to the shocking ties between Xebec, Roger, and God Valley, the lore just leveled up. We break down the theory-confirming reveal that Blackbeard's father is Xebec and how it connects to the mysterious Davy Clan.CJ proudly declares that Xebec is now his favorite character in the series, while Rico and Ty question what this flashback means for the balance of power going forward. And yes—Ty still defends his wild Buggy take, even as the world burns around him.Join us for one of the most insane One Piece lore dumps Oda has ever given.

The treacherous Ned Rackham is discovered, and Blackbeard makes a legendary last stand.  Ralph D. Paine, today on The Classic Tales Podcast.   Welcome to The Classic Tales Podcast.

When Blackbeard made his last stand, and the author mentions that he wouldn't die, he's not kidding. When Maynard examined Blackbeard's body, he discovered that he was shot in five different places and had been stabbed or otherwise cut twenty times. Just a little gruesome detail for you.   Also, and so I guess this is the second thing, the captains of the ships in this story really existed. Stede Bonnet was a pirate known for his high code of conduct. Lieutenant Maynard was the one who swore to take down Blackbeard, and had a final duel with him. Ned Rackham is likely an embellishment of Calico Jack Rackham, who may have sailed with Blackbeard, but certainly knew him. Feel free to dive down any rabbit holes you need to double check.   And now, Blackbeard: Buccaneer, Part 7 of 8, by Ralph D.

Directed by Rob Marshall (Chicago, Into the Woods), this high-seas epic sees Johnny Depp (Edward Scissorhands, Fantastic Beasts) return as the iconic Captain Jack Sparrow, who finds himself entangled in a dangerous quest to find the mythical Fountain of Youth.

Ralph Delahaye Paine was a journalist and novelist who flourished in the early 1900s. He attracted the attention of William Randolph Hearst when he covered the Cuban War for Independence from 1895-98. He continued as a war correspondent until 1903, when he retired from journalism and focused on writing history and fiction.   Blackbeard: Buccaneer tells a tale of Edward Teach, the famous pirate known as Blackbeard. Paine uses fictional characters to weave the tale together, but the details around Blackbeard himself are pretty reliable.     And now, Blackbeard: Buccaneer, Part 1 of 8, by Ralph D.

Captain William Kidd is one of the most famous names in pirate lore. But what if he wasn't actually a pirate at all? In this episode, bestselling author and scientist Samuel Marquis joins me to talk about his new book Captain Kidd: A Story of Treasure and Betrayal. Marquis has a personal stake in the story — he's Captain Kidd's ninth great grandson. We talk about Kidd's rise from colonial sea captain to pirate-hunter, the murky politics of the time, his dramatic trial in London, and the love story that's rarely told. Marquis argues Kidd was less Blackbeard and more fall guy — a man caught in a scandalous power struggle between the English crown, shady investors, and the East India Company.  Subscribe to Jon's Substack Small Talk  This episode is sponsored by AG1.

When it comes to our perception of pirates, Treasure Island has a lot to answer for. They didn't make their enemies walk the plank, they didn't keep parrots as pets, and they didn't bury their treasure. But that doesn't mean the golden age of piracy wasn't an era of swashbuckling rogues and sword fights on the high seas...In the first episode of our 'Pirates' mini-series, Dan explores the facts behind the fiction behind the likes of Blackbeard and Captain Kidd with Sophie Nibbs, the curator of the new Pirates exhibition at the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich.You can discover more about the exhibition and book tickets here.Produced by Mariana Des Forges and edited by Dougal Patmore.Archive:Treasure Island, RKO Pictures, 1950Muppets Treasure Island, Walt Disney Pictures, 1996Pirates of the Caribbean, Walt Disney Pictures, 2007Treasure Island, Mercury Theatre, 1938You can now find Dan Snow's History Hit on YouTube!

Få gestalter i det förflutna har fascinerat människor lika mycket som piraterna i Karibiska havet: kaptener med träben och papegojor på axeln, sjörövare med lapp för ögat, skattkartor med X som markerar nedgrävda rikedomar, barbariska straff som att ”gå på plankan”, flaggor med dödskallar och benknotor, med mera. Men hur mycket av detta är sant? Har de legendomsusade piraterna i Västindien en verklighetsbakgrund?Svaret är ja. Under 1500-talet och 1600-talet grundades många europeiska kolonier i Amerika och Västindien, där stora rikedomar alstrades, men bristen på statliga flottstyrkor och fungerande polisväsen gjorde att kriminaliteten blomstrade. Parallellt med detta lärde sig nederländska kaptener att de lätt kunde bekämpa sina spanska fiender samtidigt som de stal deras silver, vilket fraktades på stora flottor från Amerika till Europa. Samtidigt rymde hunsade kontraktsarbetare från plantageägare i Västindien och anslöt sig till pirathövdingar. Kombinationen av väldiga förmögenheter, brist på motstånd och tillgången till många villiga sjörövare var att den skeppsburna kriminaliteten fick en guldålder. Ridån gick ned först på 1710-talet, sedan kolonialmakterna investerat i flottor och kustvakter. I gengäld började bokläsande européer skriva ihop sjörövarskrönor som inom kort fick ett eget liv. Vår populärkulturs klassiska pirat var född.I detta avsnitt av podden Harrisons dramatiska historia samtalar Dick Harrison, professor i historia vid Lunds universitet, och fackboksförfattaren Katarina Harrison Lindbergh om piraterna i Karibiska havet – de verkliga förlagorna till Long John Silver, Jack Sparrow och andra fiktiva antihjältar.Bild:"Blackbeards sista strid" – Romantiserad skildring av slaget i Ocracoke Bay 1718 mellan piraten Blackbeard och löjtnant Robert Maynard.

This week, we'll uncover the stories of four different shipwrecks. I'll start with an ancient Roman ship found near the Greek island of Antikythera which sank around 60 to 70 BC with mind blowing treasures on board. Next, I'll talk about the sinking of King Henry VIII's flagship, the Mary Rose, in 1545 and it's rediscovery twice in the 400 years since. Then we'll move on to my personal favorite, the Queen Anne's Revenge, which was intentionally run aground by the infamous pirate Blackbeard in 1718 and rediscovered in 1996. Finally, the HMS Victory which sank in the English Channel in 1744, one of the largest and most mysterious naval tragedies in British history. We'll take a closer look at the artifacts that came off of these wrecks and what they can teach us about the people once onboard. And, we'll dive into some difficult ethical questions. What is a shipwreck really? A museum? A treasure chest? A graveyard? And should that affect how we handle these discoveries?Support the show! Join the Patreon (patreon.com/historyfixpodcast)Buy some merchBuy Me a CoffeeVenmo @Shea-LaFountaineSources: Scientific American "An Ancient Greek Astronomical Calculation Machine Reveals New Secrets"Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution "Antikythera Shipwreck"Royal Museums Greenwich "Mary Rose"maryrose.org "The Mary Rose in History"Museum Crush "11 Tudor Treasures Recovered from the Wreck of the Mary Rose"Queen Anne's Revenge Project "Discovery of the Shipwreck"Wikipedia "Queen Anne's Revenge"BBC "HMS Victory: The English Channel's 'Abandoned Shipwreck'"The Guardian "Wreckage of HMS Victory's Predecessor Discovered in Channel After 265 Years"Time Magazine "The HMS Victory, Famed Shipwreck, Is Found"Shoot me a message!

Welcome back to The Running Around Charlotte Podcast! On the program with us today is Erin Vinson, a Novant Health Charlotte Marathon Ambassador, relay enthusiast, and ultra-distance runner. Erin's running journey has taken her from the Dam to Dam, Ville to Ville, and Blue Ridge Relay courses, all the way to taking on the Blackbeard 100-mile run. She's also known for her humor and honesty about the realities of running and her passion for how running can transform individuals and communities. Erin is a champion for mental health, breaking down diet culture, and she never misses a chance to shout out her “Marathon Enablers” and the “Cougar Run Club” for their support.

Deep within North Carolina's rugged mountains and misty shores, shadows whisper and legends refuse to die. Today, I explore three chilling tales: the mysterious Boojum of the Smoky Mountains, Blackbeard's vengeful ghost haunting Ocracoke Island, and the phantom choir whose hymns echo eternally atop Roan Mountain. Beware—sometimes the darkest stories are the ones your ancestors tried hardest to forget.

Lindsay is joined by author Samuel Marquis to discuss his book, “Captain Kidd: A True Story of Treasure and Betrayal,” which will be released on May 13, 2025, by Diversion Books. Captain Kidd has captivated imaginations for over 300 years and inspired many stories about pirates, but was he a criminal? Just how many ships did he plunder, how many men did he force to walk the plank, and how many throats did he slit? Or is the truth more inconvenient, that he was a buccaneer's worst nightmare, a revered pirate hunter turned fall guy for scheming politicians?  In “Captain Kidd,” Marquis reveals the real story. Kidd was an English-American privateer and a leading New York husband and father, dubbed “trusty and well-beloved” by the King of England himself and described by historians as a “worthy, honest-hearted, steadfast, much-enduring sailor” who was the “victim of a deliberate travesty of justice.” With honors far more esteemed than the menacing Blackbeard or any other sea rover at the turn of the 17th century, how can Kidd be considered both a gentleman and pirate, both hero and villain? The ninth-great-grandson of legendary privateer Captain William Kidd, Samuel Marquis, M.S., P.G., is a professional hydrogeologist, expert witness, and bestselling, award-winning author of 12 American nonfiction-history, historical fiction, and suspense books, covering primarily the period from colonial America through WWII. His American history and historical fiction books have been #1 Denver Post and Amazon bestsellers, and have received multiple national book awards in both fiction and nonfiction categories, including the Kirkus Reviews and Foreword Reviews Book of the Year, American Book Fest and USA Best Book, Readers' Favorite, and the Colorado Book Awards. His historical titles have also garnered glowing reviews from #1 bestseller James Patterson, maritime historians, U.S. military veterans, Kirkus Reviews, and Foreword Reviews (5 Stars). His pirate book, “Blackbeard: The Birth of America,” has been an Amazon #1 Bestseller in U.S. Colonial Period History. The Marquis lives with his wife in Louisville, Colorado, where they raised their three children.

Retired trial judge, Rusty Duke, came to the Hoffman Process on the advice of his wise, eleven-year-old granddaughter. Her father, Rusty's son, had returned home happier after his time in California. While swinging on a porch swing together, Rusty and his granddaughter were talking. She said she thought that Rusty, her grandfather, was happy, but Rusty would return from California even happier, just like her dad had. Rusty listened to her wise counsel. Just two days later, he registered for the Process. The prominent theme running through Rusty's story is happiness. He was a happy child. He has a good life. And, Rusty did, indeed, return home even happier. One of the most important realizations students have during the Process is that we are not our patterns. Before coming to the Process, Rusty didn't know he had patterns. Realizing that we have patterns and that we aren't those patterns can open the door to a deeper discovery of life and who we are. In Rusty's words, Hoffman "brings a reality to life. It helps you to stop and listen and consider where you are, who you are, and what you are." During his week at the Process, Rusty crossed the 'bridge' into a newfound sense of self-love, shepherded by the love he felt from his Process-mates. He'd never really heard anyone talk about self-love before. Rusty left California and returned home, leaving behind the negative voices in his head that can keep self-love at bay. We hope you enjoy this heartwarming conversation with Judge Rusty Duke and Drew. More about Rusty Duke: Rusty Duke is a retired trial judge, married 52 years, with three children and nine grandchildren. He lives in Greenville, North Carolina, and is 'Of Counsel' at a local law firm. Duke enjoys visiting with his children and grandchildren and traveling with his family and friends. He enjoys being involved in community activities and service. Rusty enjoys speaking to various local civic groups and caring for a local camp. He recently published his first book, “Call Your Next Case: My Stories.” As mentioned in this episode: Blackbeard the Pirate Edward Teach (or Thatch), better known as Blackbeard (c. 1680 – 22 November 1718) Blackbird's buried treasure chest Blackbeard House in Beaufort, NC, circa 1700 The Algonquian Peoples Hoffman tools mentioned: The Quadrinity Spiritual Self, the body, the intellect, and the emotional self.

First in a double podcast about the Golden Age of Piracy, with historian Marcus Rediker. The legendary pirates of this era weren't just thieves—they were daring rebels challenging the very systems of power and authority of their time. Fighting every colonial empire, and creating their own ways of living free from authority, pirates became symbols of liberty and resistance to working-class and poor people everywhere.  Our podcast is brought to you by our patreon supporters.

You've probably heard about famous pirates like Blackbeard and Captain Kidd. But over a century before these bad boys roamed the seas, a kickass pirate queen reigned over Ireland's coast for six decades. Grace O'Malley was told women should lead quiet, domestic lives, locked away in their castles. But she refused this fate and instead, fought tooth, nail, and cannonball for a life where she could sail and pillage like any good pirate. But when her home is threatened by an English invasion, she'll have to go from infamous pirate to feared rebel.Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

Ching Shih, born as Shi Yang, was quite possibly the most powerful pirate of all time. While famous UK pirates like Blackbeard, Black Bart, Calico Jack, Sir Francis Drake, or Captain Kidd get much more name recognition, none of them ever commanded a confederation of pirates up to 80,000 men strong, with around 2,000 ships.
