"Bednight" stories: The Pirates of Scurvy Sands
The Pirates of Scurvy Sands by Jonny Duddle. Part of an excellent series! Roughly 2 minutes in we digress and talk about pirate hooks as medical prosthetics and then we argue briefly 7 minutes in over the difference between a chimpanzee and a monkey. This is very typical.
