Everything You Know About Pirates Is Wrong

29 min•21 oktober 2026

Om avsnittet

Pirates didn’t really walk the plank. There’s only one confirmed case of buried pirate treasure. And some of the most notorious outlaws on the ocean had written contracts, elected leaders, and workers’ compensation.


Connor Tomlinson and Carter Roy dig into three of the biggest myths about pirates and the wild true stories behind them. From walking the plank and buried treasure maps to the surprisingly strict rules pirates actually lived by, it turns out the truth is even stranger than the legend.


Which pirate myth changed your mind the most: the plank, the treasure map, or the lawless pirate? Drop your vote in the comments.
