The Pirate Special

from Sip and Saga Society Hosted by The Sip and Saga Society

Our first, but definetly not last, PIRATE SPECIAL!! We have a little bit of everything this episode, including a new friend! We discuss whether our drinks would protect us from scurvy (Maybe), cults, the most successful pirate (Zheng Yi Sao) and the orginal source for all things pirates. Notes: Karina mentions Ghost of Christmas Present, but the creepy ghost is the Ghost of Christmas Past.
