  The Pirate's Republic of Nassau, PART TWO

  Aug 14, 202650 minS3

  The Pirate Republic of Nassau begins to fall when King George I offers a pardon to any pirate willing to surrender. Benjamin Hornigold accepts the deal. Charles Vane refuses, sets a captured ship on fire, and uses it to escape the British fleet. Part two follows Woodes Rogers as he takes Nassau back for the Crown, hires former pirates to hunt their old allies, and hangs the men who break their pardons. Charles Vane loses his command, Calico Jack Rackham takes his place, and Nassau’s days as the safest pirate port in the Caribbean come to an end. .........................

  The Pirate's Republic of Nassau, PART ONE

  Aug 14, 202651 minS3

  The Pirate Republic of Nassau rose in the early 1700s after thousands of privateers were left without work at the end of the War of the Spanish Succession. With no strong government, a defensible harbor, and wealthy Atlantic shipping lanes nearby, Nassau became the most important pirate stronghold in the Caribbean. Part one explores the rise of the Pirate Republic of Nassau through Henry Every, the 1715 Spanish treasure fleet, Henry Jennings, Benjamin Hornigold, Charles Vane, and Blackbeard. We trace how New Providence became a base for the Golden Age of Piracy, where pirate crews elected captains, divided stolen treasure, and built a lawless society beyond the control of the British Crown. ...................................

  The Infuriatingly Sad Tale of "Typhoid Mary" PART TWO

  Jul 17, 202643 minS2

  In 1910, Mary Mallon walked out of quarantine under one condition: she could never work as a cook again. By 1915, she was back in a Manhattan hospital kitchen under the name Mary Brown, and a new typhoid outbreak had infected 25 people and killed two. This episode concludes the story of “Typhoid Mary,” the asymptomatic carrier whose choices turned a public health crisis into a legal and ethical battleground. Part two follows Mary’s broken parole, the Sloane Maternity Hospital outbreak, her second arrest, and the decades she spent confined on North Brother Island. We look at disease, quarantine, civil liberties, media panic, gender bias, immigration, and why Mary Mallon’s case still echoes through every modern debate about public health and personal freedom. .........................................

  The Infuriatingly Sad Tale of "Typhoid Mary" PART ONE

  Jul 10, 202643 minS2

  In early 1900s New York, a cook named Mary Mallon moved from one wealthy household to another while typhoid followed in her wake. This episode begins the story of “Typhoid Mary”: the Irish immigrant cook who seemed perfectly healthy, the baffling outbreaks that struck rich families instead of slums, and the medical investigation that changed public health history by identifying one of America’s first known asymptomatic carriers. Part one follows Mary’s rise as a private cook, the trail of typhoid cases linked to her kitchens, George Soper’s hunt to prove she was spreading the disease, and the explosive confrontation that ended with her forced quarantine on North Brother Island. It’s a story about disease, class, immigration, fear, and the moment modern epidemiology collided with one woman’s life. ............................................
