In the early 18th century a well known pirate captured the port city of Charles Town (modern day Charleston, South Carolina) and held it for ransom. His reign of terror would not last very long and he would die at a young age, but that's the price you pay when you live a life of sailing, drinking, and stealing.  In this week's episode we're talking about what piracy was really like and telling you the story of one of the most famous pirates of all time. Grab a pint of grog, raise your black flags high, and enjoy this episode of Hundred Proof History titled Blackbeard...Gimme Dat Booty!
