Kate Larsen and Shuhe Hawkins are living the pirate life in the mountains of Portland, Oregon. Seven Sails Winery, the Portland Pirate Festival, and their bands Bilge Rats and Pyrettes, and B.O.O.M. Plus the ship... Oh, the ship.

Amazing stories in this episodes... shipwrecks, storms, world records, burials at sea... I love people that say yes then figure out how to do what they just agreed to. And Kate and Shuhe are exactly those types.

Under The Crossbones is a podcast all about pirate culture. Your host Phil Johnson (comedian, musician, and pirate geek) interviews the most interesting people in the pirate subculture: Actors, Authors, Historians, Musicians, Artists, Festival Founders, Clothing and Prop Designers, Treasure Hunters, Archaeologists, and more.
