À propos de cet audio
Pirate stories often sound like adventure — treasure maps, freedom, and life on the open sea. But the real life aboard a pirate ship was far from paradise. It was harsh, dirty, and often short-lived.
In this calm, long-form history, we drift gently through:
The cramped, disease-ridden conditions on board
The strict pirate codes and surprising shipboard democracy
The food, drink, and punishments that shaped daily life
The myths versus the reality of treasure and plunder
How most pirate lives ended — not in glory, but on the gallows
Told slowly and softly, this story strips away the legend and reveals the quiet, uncomfortable truth of piracy’s so-called golden age. Perfect for late-night listening, when you want history that soothes instead of excites.
