There is the vaguest of connections between piracy and the Pringles man. The machine that cooks Pringles in their specific way was patented by a former army Engineer named Gene Wolfe, who had a very distinctive mustache and the Pringles mascot is modeled after how he looked at the time. Later on, Wolfe would become one of the most critically acclaimed sci-fi writers of the later half of the 20th century, and he did write a book set during the golden age of piracy called Pirate Freedom. While it's not up there with his best works like Book of the New Sun and Fifth Head of Cerberus, it's a fun enough read as it is.
Wait. This intro music, the giggling of the paintings, are you... Are you paying hommage to Death of the Reprobate ? :D I knew you were a person of good taste
Btw unrelated Saint malo is also the setting for the netflix series "All of the light that we cant see" which interestingly is also about the search for a precious gemstone
We are gentamen of opertunity we are now working on hiend yatchs. We fix the them move them (good for picking up the ladies) the give us beer and lots on money. Life is very good and the workman comp bills have gone way down . 😂
If I may: oh that is actually Halsey written with so called Long s used in English until the 19th century. The Captain Halsey refers to pirate John Halsey: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Halsey_(privateer)
While you are correct that Plymouth is indeed in Devon (even if just barely as Cornwall begins just West of it) many pirates, even Uk ones also came from other areas like Wales and London. Also some pirates came outside of the Uk too.
@@unknowntrooper_2791 they literally forgot how iconic scotsmen were as pirates and how far their influence got (the dirk and shield, political leanings, religious, etc)
you need to stop playing uncharted 4 it wasn't real it's just a computer game. in the game he did not get a happy ending. and seriously you've been playing uncharted 4 too many times

If Billy one-hand was so good why was there never a Billy two-hand
Then we'd never have Revy two hands.
The Billy's skipped hands altogether, now we have Billy Strings...
Then billy wouldn’t be an idol 😉
There was. Once.
he was Billy 4 hand until he handle business
A whole video on pirates who retired successfully would be cool.
It’d be a short one lol
Last time I was so early good ole Störtebeker still had his head attached to him
The most successful are often vaguely known to history
true

I knew you were a person of good taste
Finally, the story with good ending
Thanks!
it's nice to know a one handed man can have a happy ending
This joke is massively underappreciated
Great content again and very nice to see a new sponsor of that caliber! Cheers!
Great episode!!!!
Well told
Very interesting. Keep up the gold and powder!
A banger as always.
Love your videos

lucky man

For the algorithm and more! 🏴☠
Billy extends his personal thank you(with his good hand)
I was gonna write a joke but I guess you told all of them 🤣🤣
If he only had one hand it would make sense for him to have a happy ending.
Video on modern pirates?

4:06 Who is Captain Halfey?
If I may: oh that is actually Halsey written with so called Long s used in English until the 19th century. The Captain Halsey refers to pirate John Halsey: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Halsey_(privateer)
Any videos about creepy superstitions or beliefs? You know, like why is undead pirates such a thing and so on?
👍
Plymouth is in devon, where ALL the pirates came from, not cornwall
i think there might have been more pirates than the population of devon
While you are correct that Plymouth is indeed in Devon (even if just barely as Cornwall begins just West of it) many pirates, even Uk ones also came from other areas like Wales and London. Also some pirates came outside of the Uk too.
