Beyond Contempt True Crime

A podcast about the Golden Age of Piracy and the real men and women that shook the world. We discuss the pirates, buccaneers, privateers, and smugglers that threatened the trade and stability of Old World empires. We talk about the kings, queens, priests, & governors that ran their world and we talk about the people who lived in that world. Brothel workers, merchant fences, slaves, witches, indigenous peoples, and all the regular people who were torn between the cruelty of their masters and pirates alike. History, high seas adventure, myth and magic, voodoo, treachery, and freedom await.

Historical True Crime — assassins, gangsters, mobsters and lawmen; manhunts, scandals and unexplained phenomena. Stories of the wildest and darkest chapters of America's past.

A boozy weekly podcast about mythology, legends and folklore. Hear fresh takes on classic myths and learn new stories from around the world, served up over ice by two tipsy history geeks. Hosts Julia and Amanda are best friends from childhood whose natural chemistry, supportive humor and infectious enthusiasm compel listeners to come along for the journey. Their ad reads are genuine, inventive and funny. And the Spirits audience is looking for recommendations: primarily educated young women in the U.S. and other countries eager to support the show with their dollars.
