Our Flag Means Death (S1) | Part 1
Hear ye hear ye! Please join us in welcoming for its debut on our podcast, the HBO sleeper hit, and gay pirate rom-com of our hearts, Our Flag Means Death! 🏴☠️🐈❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤
This will be our first of two episodes focusing on season 1 of OFMD, in which we are once again joined by dear friend of the podcast, Lucy. Topics include the idea of piracy as performance, written and oral histories, the radical politics of eccentricity, piracy as a queer genre, queerbaiting, and of course we can’t talk about queer pirates without talking about our other favourite pirate show, Black Sails 🏴☠️
So whether you’re here for the ships ⚓ or the ships 💘, click the link in our bio to listen to some swash-buckling pirate analysis, or find us wherever you find podcasts.
