Descripción

In 1895, Joshua Slocum set out alone in a rebuilt boat with no engine, no crew, and one impossible goal: to become the first person to sail solo around the world. Facing storms, pirates, and thousands of miles of open ocean, his voyage became one of history’s greatest solo adventures.

S1E2- The Pirate Queen Who Commanded 70,000 Men

Welcome to 1 of 115 Billion. Where each week we take a look at the life of one of the 115 billion humans who have ever lived on this planet. We don't look at your Napoleans or your US Presidents, instead we find those who never got the accalim they probably deserve. Episode 2 takes a look at the life of Ching Shih. Born into poverty she would later rise from working in a brothel to commanding the most feared pirate gang in the South China Sea. As a new podcast if you could give us a 5 star rating - thats all the motivation I need to keep on researching new episodes. If you'd like to get in contact with the show to give feedback, tell us about someone from your life who deserves a mention or if you have a historical figure we should research, email us: ooftbpod@gmail.com
