Send us Fan MailCaptain Kidd finally has it all: a royal commission, a beautiful family, a magnificent ship, and a mission to hunt down the world’s most wanted pirates. What could possibly go wrong? Oh, just about everything.Grab your coffee and join Hollie, TheCampyTraveler, and guest Evee as we follow Kidd into the voyage that would make—or break—his legacy. From a crew stolen out from under him to deadly disease, a fatal argument involving a wooden bucket, and a treasure-laden ship that sparks centuries of debate, Kidd’s dream adventure turns into a maritime mess.Was he a law-abiding privateer pushed to desperation, or was this the moment he crossed the line into piracy? The evidence is complicated, the stakes are enormous, and the ocean is full of trouble.Plus, we’ll explore real pirate destinations and pop-culture rabbit holes inspired by Kidd’s legend.Settle in, stay curious, and prepare to watch a captain’s luck run outWhere You Can Touch It: 1. River Thames, LondonStand beside the river where Kidd's expedition nearly failed before it even reached open water, after much of his crew was impressed into Royal Navy service."Captain Kidd's bad luck started before he even reached the sea."2. National Maritime Museum, GreenwichOne of the world's finest maritime museums. Learn about privateering, navigation, naval warfare, and daily life aboard ships like the Adventure Galley."Want to understand what life aboard Kidd's ship was really like? This is the place."3. Fort Kochi, IndiaLocated near the waters where Kidd captured the Quedagh Merchant — the controversial prize that would forever alter his reputation."The legal battle over this capture still fascinates historians today."4. Nosy Boraha (Île Sainte-Marie), MadagascarPerhaps the world's greatest pirate destination. Kidd sought refuge here while his crew unraveled and his fortunes collapsed."This is where Captain Kidd's world truly began to fall apart."5. Pirate Cemetery, Nosy BorahaOne of the only authentic pirate cemeteries in the world — a rare chance to stand among the graves of real pirates."If any place captures the atmosphere of the Golden Age of Piracy, this is it."6. The Children's Museum of IndianapolisHome to a massive, permanent interactive exhibit called National Geographic Treasures of the Earth — and the most significant part of its Kidd connection is a real, 17th-century iron cannon recovered directly from Captain Kidd's shipwreck in the Dominican Republic. Indiana University researchers legally brought the cannon to the U.S. for testing, conservation, and stabilization, and in 2011 — to coincide with the 310th anniversary of Kidd's execution — it went on permanent display, submerged in a specialized freshwater casing to protect the metal."You can see a piece of Captain Kidd's actual wreck — in Indiana, of all places."7. Living Museum of the Sea, off Catalina Island, Dominican RepublicEstablished in 2007 after a diver found the wreckage in just ten feet of water, researchers from Indiana University identified the ship as Kidd's controversial prize, the Quedagh Merchant. Their preservation approach was a world first — the planet's first marine park allowing divers to visit a wreck while preserving it in situ, protecting both the vessel and the ecosystem that's grown up around it."You can dive alongside Kidd's ill-fated prize and the sea life that now calls it home."8. Baie des Forbans (Pirates' Bay), MadagascarA picturesque bay forever linked with pirates and privateers. This is where listeners can imagine Kidd's disastrous encounter with Robert Culliford and the mutiny that followed."Next episode, Captain Kidd sails home... only to discover he's become the pirate everyone is hunting."Fictional WorksOne Piece, creator Eiichiro Oda (1997–present) — Features the pirate Eustass Kid, a direct homage to Captain Kidd, ambitious and fearless in the same mold as his namesake.Peter Pan by J.
