Sarah and Robin revel in their shared love for the queer phenomenon, Our Flag Means Death. Proceed with caution if you do not want spoilers! We spill all of the beans. To kick the episode off Robin shares the punk history of pirates which includes disrupting the trans Atlantic slave trade, worker’s collectives, gay marriages, bi polycules and more. She sets the queer context for the world of the show. Then, Sarah and Robin dive into their favorite gay moments and some bts tidbits. While many straight critics may have missed the magic of season 2, Sarah and Robin relish in each delicious queer morsel this show offers.
