Half-Arsed History
00:00
Introduction
In 1695, Every led a raid on a muggle treasure fleet and captured a staggering amount of wealth estimated to be worth as much as $120 million US dollars today. A massive bounty was put on Every's head, and people from all around the world searched far and wide for him but even so, they never found him. And Every managed to be one of the very few famous pirates from history that actually lived to enjoy his ill-gotten gains,. We love a bit of naval history here on the show, but a piratical history terrific, and it's got all the half-assed history classics. Can't wait to get into it.
