Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
Pirates have always been a subject of intense fascination, and none are more notorious than Blackbeard, who roamed and plundered the Atlantic coast under the protection of North Carolina’s governor. In this holiday rebroadcast, Kojo and guests talk about this legendary pirate, and the recent underwater discovery of Blackbeard’s ship.
Guests
- Margaret Hoffman Author "Blackbeard: A Tale Of Villainy and Murder in Colonial America" (pub: Coastal Plains Publishing Company)
