Jim Laird is a name I’ve been hearing around the pirate community since I started this show. Â So I’m super happy to have him on the show today!
Jim has survived as Blackbeard longer than Blackbeard himself. Â And he takes his Blackbeard shows to entertain the kiddies with fun and the adults with history and stories.
We’ll dig into how Jim stumbled onto his alter-ego and what it was about donning the rig that made him want to keep doing it.
Jim also gives us the lowdown on his in-process and very not for kids book about Blackbeard’s early years.
