We explore the life of Antoine De Tounens, a French lawyer who claimed to be King of a huge part of South America but was called insane by everyone else, and how his acceptance could have changed not only the landscape of the world map but also the lives of millions of indigenous people in South America.

We discuss the fascinating life of the world's most successful female pirate: Ching Shih(70,000 men and 400 ships!), and how she got there starting from working in a brothel, marrying her step-son (yup) and establishing a Code of Ethics to govern her enormous fleet of pirates which included some (arguably) insanely progressive ideals that led to her fleet staying undefeated for three years amongst other key events.
