Because doesn't every good story involve pirates! Man you make my day everytime.

As a descendant of Henry's brother Charles, thanks for not disparaging Uncle Henry. --Don Morgan

I love these compilations! Great for listening to while relaxing!
-
That was just awesome, lots of history that I didn't know and I love history and pirates
-
I think I have seen most of these episodes individually, but I really liked this compilation. In this case, the whole is better than the sum of its parts. Keep up the great work, History Guy! And yes, every good story does involve pirates.

This guy is too good. He's like listening to your trusted grandfathers. Keep producing my good man. Oh, do a video of the Titanic's radio room's arrogance. It was deadly; "Shut-up, shut-up, I'm busy." when told to slow down.

When I was in Middle School in Dennis Massachusetts, Barry Clifford, the person that found the Whydah, brought the underwater film footage to our school, and we had a school assembly, and watched it.He lives in Dennis. Black Sam Bellamy, and the witch of Wellfleet. They are still pulling gold out of that wreck. There's a Pirate museum in Yarmouth dedicated to this story. The Whydah is the only authentic pirate ship ever found. If you go to that museum, you can watch them carefully restore the gold.

In the late 80's, while in the service, I was stationed with a Jamaican named Elvis. One morning he raised his coffee cup and made a toast to the 25th anniversary of Jamaican Independence. I asked how well his beloved island had faired since the the British left. He replied with a smile, "Went straight to Hell, man. Jamaicans can't run anything..."

Always an outstanding video and presentation.

Thank you for sharing this information. The Skull and Bones has a lot more of meaning than what most know.

Being a Pittsburgh native, I totally agree that all good stories include Pirates!
