Captain Davy Duvall

Captain Davy Duvall is a former stuntman turned pirate entertainer. And 26 years in, he’s one of the longest running pirate entertainment acts around.

We talk about what made him go into a pirate character at a time when pirate fandom was at a low point and how it’s evolved over the years. Plus his music and how the show evolves and changes.

Plus comedy from Aniria and a song called “New Worlds” from Captain Davy and Kirby Jake.

Jeff Dixon of Dixon Woodworking

Jeff Dixon and his family at Dixon woodworking make some of the most badass pirate ship clubhouses you’re ever going to see. You don’t even need to have kids because they’re built for adults too.

The story of how the company came together is very touching. And Jeff takes me through their whole process of building and delivering their ships. Plus some great stories of news anchors falling on their asses. (Yep, really.)

I’m still on the road without my good microphone and now with the added bonus of a head cold. So you can always fast forward through my croaking if you can’t hang with it. But the interview sounds great. This episode and the next will be like that. Then I’ll be back to good health and on a solid mic after that. Thanks for understanding.

Today’s show is sponsored by:
Naufragant – Get their new single, “The Black Corsair” from the upcoming album based on the classic pirate novel.

Plus comedy from Rudy Ortiz about how not to say ‘I do’ and a song called “Windows Bleed” by Chilindrina.

Pirate fans and enthusiasts are known for being pretty different from the rest of society anyway. And if you’re different even in the world of pirates?

My guest today is David Engel of Pirate School! He’s a classically trained actor who uses his powers to both educate about pirates and entertain kids with a really great variety show.

We’ll talk about why he chose to go the kid route, the art of clowning and why it’s viewed so differently here in the US compared to Europe, and how David uses pirates to teach kids science, dealing with bullies, and lots more.

Also on the show, two very unique performers: comedian JJ Whitehead and music artist Groovy Judy.

Don’t sleep on this one… Really great episode.

Here’s a few pictures of David’s live show.

JJ Whitehead and the Bad Date Burger Debate…

Here’s the “cardboard farm” picture I mentioned. We’re putting mulch on top of this. But the people driving by didn’t know that. They just looked at us all crazy.
