This Halloween, The Big Bad Broadcast sets sail into the chilling depths of pirate legends and spectral encounters. Mike kicks things off with mischievous Halloween memories before welcoming Jackie Hoover from the Antilles Trading Company Pirate Museum. Jackie unveils eerie tales of haunted artifacts, wandering spirits, and a ghost that loves to mimic voices inside the museum’s dark halls. The crew dives into the haunted legacies of Blackbeard and Calico Jack, the curse of Billy One Hand, and the restless spirit of Anne Bonny haunting Rackham’s Key. Between the ghost stories and pirate lore, listeners get a reminder to stay safe out there—no drinking and driving, even on the most haunted night of the year. The show closes with a goosebump-raising reading of Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Raven,” wrapping up a Halloween episode filled with laughter, legends, and plenty of paranormal chills.

As a boy, I loved reading stories about pirates. How those adventures spurred my imagination! Now I live in an area where one of the most infamous of those pirates—Blackbeard (real name: Edward Teach)—had his headquarters. Shipwrecked in the waters off the coast here is Blackbeard’s ship, the Queen Anne’s Revenge. We can easily romanticize the wrecks and the high-sea adventures of history. The apostle Paul, however, wrote about a very different kind of shipwreck that provides us with a caution and an exhortation. In his first letter to Timothy, Paul warned his son in the faith to “[hold] on to faith and a good conscience, which some have rejected and so have suffered shipwreck with regard to the faith” (1 Timothy 1:19). What is this “shipwreck”? Two men, Hymenaeus and Alexander, had in some devastating way departed from the true faith, and the apostle turned them over to Satan “to be taught not to blaspheme” (v. 20). Paul desired them to repent, but the consequences of their actions were dire. Our faith isn’t static, nor can it exist in a vacuum. We must actively nurture and cultivate our relationship with God to grow strong and healthy in faith and good conscience. May we join with other believers, yield to God’s Spirit, and allow Him to work in us. We can avoid shipwreck.

One thing I wanted to mention as our Blackbeard story starts to wind down. 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.

Tara Erickson & Aaron Alexander set sail once again in this Reaction & Review for Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides (2011), the fourth installment in the swashbuckling Disney adventure series! 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. Along the way, he reunites with the mysterious and cunning Angelica, played by Penélope Cruz (Vicky Cristina Barcelona, Vanilla Sky), who may or may not be the daughter of the infamous pirate Blackbeard, portrayed by Ian McShane (Deadwood, John Wick). Geoffrey Rush (Shine, The King's Speech) also returns as the scheming Captain Hector Barbossa, now a privateer in service to the British crown. The film features thrilling action sequences including a mutiny aboard the Queen Anne's Revenge, eerie mermaid attacks, and a treacherous jungle journey toward the Fountain. Other cast members include Kevin McNally as loyal first mate Gibbs, Sam Claflin (The Hunger Games, Enola Holmes) as a missionary entangled in a forbidden romance, and Àstrid Bergès-Frisbey (King Arthur: Legend of the Sword) as the ethereal mermaid Syrena. With supernatural twists, swordfights, and Jack Sparrow's signature wit, On Stranger Tides offers a standalone adventure filled with peril, betrayal, and pirate legend.

I was so excited when I found today's story. 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.

Zheng Yi Sao was a pirate leader so formidable that she made Blackbeard and Captain Morgan look like amateurs.

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!

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!

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.

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.
