The Party is in for yet another of their many culture shocks as they make their way aboard Ren’s notorious Red Reaver (except for Regan of course). Billy questions his role in the group, and Arlene levels up the vital bardic skill “read the damn room.” Meanwhile, Bryce Riverfell proves far less cooperative than Ry’y lo-Th’yyt expected. And new pressures threaten the delicate agreement between Regan and Ren.

The thrilling conclusion of this chapter will be released on June 17. We I’hope you’ll join us then!
If you enjoyed the (almost entirely improvised) performance of our pirate crew, you can see Night Captain perform live at the PIT Striker on June 28 (Tickets). If you enjoyed the complex and multi-layered sound production, you can thank Jared Paul for recording it and Oliver Morris for mixing it. Oliver produces his own horror-noir podcast called KANE AND FEELS: PARANORMAL INVESTIGATORS.
CONTENT NOTES for this episode, including an inevitable MAJOR SPOILER, below.
CONTENT NOTES:
- From 03:23-03:28 there are vomit noises.
- From 19:55-20:06 (Script Pg. 53) someone with a pre-modern vocabulary says “sex” where ‘gender’ would be more appropriate in a modern context.
- From 24:07-24:48 (Script Pg. 57), there is a depiction of a gruesome suicide, committed to avoid torture.
End of listed CONTENT NOTES.
yes yes yes yes yes, perfect for my long drive tommorow <3
Might be among the top episodes easily.
Thank you for saying so, Bill!
What a fantastic episode. I tend to let a few episodes stack up so i can binge and this has been well worth the wait. I am curious, is there a way to find the songs performed? I have a pirate shanties playlist for work and they would fit right in.
