  • Pirates Abound

    What I love about this podcast is the variety of people interviewed, from clothiers to authors. Also, it just goes to show the community that is out there, where pirates can gather and pillage and plunder all year. There’s something for everyone out there!

  • Colossal Waste of Time

    If you like for the podcaster to waste the first third of his time telling you where he has performed lately or hearing him describe a boring plane flight, by all means, waste your precious time here. After that, there might be one or two minutes that are interesting, provided he has a good guest – but most are not. Please, I beg you, go for a walk, take a nap, or get a sandwich.

  • Great Podcast

    I discovered Under the Crossbones thanks to a friend, and I have found the interviews both informative and entertaiining about the world of pirates and those who bring the Golden Age of Piracy to life either through their hobbies or professions. Phil is a natural interviewer, and you can tell how much he cares about the topics he is discussing. I have tuned in for each of the episodes, and I look forward to those to come. A true fan.

  • Interesting, Fun and Funny

    This is such a great podcast. It perfectly straddles the line of informative and entertaining. The interviews are fun and insightful, the comedy is hilarious, and the music is a treat. Phil Johnson does a perfect job of conducting the interviews and setting up the material. I regularly listen to about 20 different podcasts. If there's one podcast I would sorely miss, it would be this one.
