Benerson Little is the author of five non-fiction books on piracy and sea roving plus a novel with sequels to come. He's considered a leading expert of piracy past and present, and is the historical consultant for Black Sails on the Starz network. He's also a former Navy Seal and fencing expert.

If there's anyone that's got all his pirate bases covered, Ben is that guy. We dig into some of his many books, his thoughts on Black Sails, plenty of fencing stuff, and more. This show is chock full and I still feel like we barely got to enough stuff.
