Yesterday's Chip Paper

6. Mad Captain Stewart and the Mutiny Murders


Listen Later

Captain Stewart saw mutiny in a dream. This is the unreal story of what happened next, except it's oh so very real. Jim and Violet are in the same studio for the very first episode of 2017, bringing you the story of murder at sea, plus some great poetical advice to kick start your new year's resolutions and a letter to the editor from the testy neighbour of a violin enthusiast.

Yesterday's Chip Paper is a fortnightly(ish) history podcast by two transatlantic researchers. The podcast covers true stories found in the pages of old newspapers, with true crime, momentous historical events, forgotten poetry and everything in between.
