The Pirates of Southwest Florida?

Ahoy Matey…or maybe not. Local lore tells of pirates in southwest Florida, but are they tall tales or real people? In this episode, we welcome Thomas Lockyear, Manager of the Museum of the Everglades in Everglades City, as he talks about the research he’s conducted into local pirate stories. Learn what’s fact and what’s fiction and who may have been real and who’s probably a legend. This episode may have you saying “blimey, I didn’t know that!”
