Kate Larsen and Shuhe Hawkins of Seven Sails Winery

Kate Larsen and Shuhe Hawkins are living the pirate life in the mountains of Portland, Oregon. Seven Sails Vineyard, the Portland Pirate Festival, and their band Bilge Rats and Pyrettes. Plus the ship… Oh, the ship.

Amazing stories in this episodes… shipwrecks, storms, world records, burials at sea… I love people that say yes then figure out how to do what they just agreed to. And Kate and Shuhe are exactly those types.

Here’s the video of that sternwheeler crashing into the Royaliste. It plays like that forklift scene in Austin Powers.

And on a happier note, here’s the music video for Rollin’ Down To Old Maui from the album “Sea Fever”

Spencer Smilanick aka Spoo Diggity of The Pirates Charles

Episode 100! Thanks for sticking with the show!

Spencer Smilanick aka Captain Spoo Diggity is the lead vocalist of The Pirates Charles. So many good “where did that name come from” stories in this episode! Where the band name came from will have you on the floor. Pull your car over before that section so you don’t hit anything.

We’ll go deep into how Spencer has crafted his pirate persona and is able to tell deeply personal stories through his music, often without the audience even knowing it. A bit of biz chat too about what it’s like being such a different kind of band in the Los Angeles market.

And, of course, you’ll hear a track from their new album Invictus called “Fortress of Five Kings”.

To celebrate the 100th episode of Under The Crossbones, I invited a bunch of past guests to call in and update us on what they’re doing now. Interviews are great, but they’re just a snapshot in time. Fun to catch up with all the cool folks we’ve been listening to the last couple years.

BD McGee of BD Blades

BD McGee of BD Blades is a Florida pirate, former New Jersey cop, and maker of all things sharp, metal, and pointy.

We’ll get into the dare from his wife that got him making his first blade (out of a what?) to winning the big prize on Forged In Fire on the History Channel. But more importantly you’ll hear the absolute joy that he gets out of creating a custom blade for one of his many adoring customers.

And you’ll hear a little bit of his grandchild crying in the background. 🙂
