6 - François L'Olonnais (Part 1) - The Bane of Spain

This week, we're completing our Pirates of the Seven Seas trilogy with a two-part special.

In this first instalment, we examine the diabolical rise of the Caribbean's most vicious BASTARD: François L'Olonnais. From his rise from indentured servant to Buccaneer to Public Enemy #1 for the Spanish Empire, we examine the wicked and wild stories of his life, and how he became known as the infamous "Bane of Spain".
