Don’t Forget Talk Like a Pirate Day!

BLIMEY! Saturday September 19th is International Talk Like a Pirate Day! Ya'ar! It be one of my favoritest days of the year, be.

When I broke in to the radio biz back in 2002, this was one of my first memories of radio was Talk Like a Pirate Day with Tim and Deb. I was a lowly intern running the board but we had so much fun that day, we carried on the tradition.

It's simple, you just talk like a pirate. The more creative you are the better. Learn some pirate sayings, some pirate lingo. Call the ladies a wench and get away with it!

The look on someone's face when you call them a lubber is priceless. A lubber is a person who lives on land. He's a land lubber.

Who do you think is the most famous pirate? Johnny Depp? Keith Richards?

A few years ago, the internet came out with a new term called porch pirates. These are people who look for UPS and Amazon to deliver packages and then go steal them.
