Our Flag Means Death is a win for gays and dads alike.  In this episode we tackle the big questions, like "Why did this delightful little pirate show became so popular so fast," and "Isn't it okay to torture your hostages just a little, as long as it's funny?" Also featuring the joys of good representation, the horrors of the British Navy, the complicated nature of exploring piracy in fiction, and most importantly, Rhys Darby's calves.
