What is the best case scenario for a pirate sailing on any sea? Score some loot, become boys with the crew and not get injured or killed too quickly? Sounds about right. Well, Ching Shih has a very adult rated fairy tale of piracy. Her rise and... well continued rise is something only she could have done. What she did on the South China Sea is straight up piracy Hall of Fame type stuff. Strider recognizes that piracy and criminality go hand in and hand and it is not that aspect of Ching Shih's or any pirate's life that he wants to celebrate, but rather the scale and diplomatic sway of her floating empire.

Strider Wilson hosts a podcast delving into history through the perspective of a mature erudite bro. He was one unit away from a history minor at U.C. San Diego, but he does’t let that stop him from examining what it would have been like to be a bro posted up on Bunker Hill or uncovering what the chillest aspect of surrealist art is. Buckle up because Strider will not only venture into humanity's shared past. He will venture within himself. Asking real questions such as, “exactly how tight are pirates,” or “what if he stayed that extra semester in school,” “would my life have been danker?” Strider firmly believes that history is tight because we all should for sure blaze our own trails… but in what direction?
