From the hilarious to the heartfelt, to the sexy, to the weird, Our Flag Means Death fanfiction is some of the most interesting literature being written right now. The Our Flag Means Fanfiction Podcast explores this spectacular art form and discusses the hosts’ favorite Our Flag fics. We also chat about the characters, the fandom, and everything we love about the greatest series of all time: Our Flag Means Death.
The podcast Our Flag Means Fanfiction is created by Carly Heath. The podcast and the artwork on this page are embedded on this page using the public podcast feed (RSS).
Today on the podcast, Andrea (https://bsky.app/profile/pajarito-botones.bsky.social), who co-hosted Gay Pirate News Hour with me on Dec 7th, has sent in her narration of the first two chapters of Up, Down, Turn Around by Shearwater.
Leave Shearwater a comment and a kudos:
"Up, Down, Turn Around": https://archiveofourown.org/works/43672797/chapters/109819575
This is Andrea’s first ever podfic narration so let’s be sure to give her plenty of encouragement and support!
Up, Down, Turn Around is part of Shearwater’s Temptation ’Verse. It’s a modern AU where Ed is an artist and Stede is a bookseller. Those leaving comments on this fic love how Ed’s midlife crisis and ADHD brain are rendered. I think you’ll love what Andrea has done with this one.
Before we get into this fic, quick reminder that you are welcome to send in your own narrations of your favorite fanfics. Just get the author’s permission first and email the audio file to [email protected].

Also be sure to check out this week’s Haunted Hollywood Hour. Friday’s episode covers an actual UFO abduction that happened in the 1950s in Tujunga Canyon near Los Angeles. The main people involved were all lesbians so that’s why this incident isn’t talked about much in UFO lore. But I give you all the details from this out-of-print book on the subject, so you don’t want to miss it.

It’s a gentlebeard lemonade stand meet-cute for this week’s epitizer!
PilotPirate has sent in her podfic narration of Anathxmadevice’s “when life gives you lemons.” It’s a short, 6,600-word, explicit fic that’s described by fans as “Absolutely lovely and hot.”
Ed Teach, new to the town of Revenge, stops by the lemonade stand across the street from his house every Friday. It's definitely because he loves Alma's lemonade, and definitely not because he's got a crush on her absurdly hot dad.

Together, they take us through the ten roles of Con’s that the fandom voted their faves, watching clips and making their own judgements as they go. Will the popular vote match up with our hosts’ (very horny) takes on each character? And how do they compare to Con’s person top five faves? Also included: a few behind the scenes tidbits direct from Con about the number one character!

This week’s minisode is narrated by Gutis, also known as Cheesecake3 on AO3. It’s ‘Just Keep Your Eyes On Me’ by KalansPhantom, Pastor_of_Muppets. Though the overall fic is rated E, there's nothing explicit in the first chapter.
Here’s the fic: https://archiveofourown.org/works/55403533/chapters/140573446
And here's Cheesecake3 on AO3: https://archiveofourown.org/users/cheesecake3
And here’s the summary:
Edward Teach is in love with his best friend and co-owner of Revenge Therapies, but he knows that nothing will ever happen between them. When he's invited to a BDSM convention to give a talk about Kink Aware Therapy, he decides to take it as a chance to unwind and maybe find a playmate in the scene to destress. Because, one of the other secrets he keeps away from Stede are the years he's spent as a dominant in the community.
Instead, one Stede Bonnet appears wanting to support Ed as he runs his panel, except somehow the most oblivious man in the world appears to be completely unaware at just what sort of convention he's stumbled into.
Ed must protect this man at all costs.

Baby Kraken is back on the podcast this week with two podfic narrations by daydreamcrash. “Would that be cool?” is for teen and up audiences and is based on the author’s post Season 2 trailer / pre-season 2 theory they posted on twitter, this theory reads “i do think that if rumour goes around that blackbeard is crashing weddings then the smart (stupid) thing for stede to do would be set up a fuckery of a wedding…”
The other podfic is “once upon a poolside” — it’s an angsty fic that deals with loss, but has a whole lot of love between Ed and Stede. It’s inspired by our wives under the sea by julia armfield. This short, 2000 word fic has about 49 comments of love on it. It’s repeatedly described as “Pure poetry. Devastating poetry.”
Check them out on AO3:

Prince Ricky, who is now an Admiral, has just been informed that Blackbeard, Bonnet, and Izzy Hands have sunk one of his ships. So that means Izzy is alive. Ricky now needs to return to sea to track down the nefarious pirates but has grown fond of the following of pre-teen girls who fawn over him now that he has this dark, outsider aesthetic. This is "The Specter of the Seas" read by Baby Kraken who does an absolutely amazing job.

Our conversation this week touches on fanfiction’s role in helping co-host Lacey Bond (https://www.instagram.com/joy.goblin/) deprogram from Christianity. And the more I marinate on Lacey’s story after listening to this again, the more I can’t help but wonder if fanfiction has helped a lot of people deprogram from things. Also covered this week: GENTLEBEARD! Samba revealing Froach was a thing! Still on my quest to get Rhys Darby’s birth time! And why I wouldn’t survive the apocalypse.

I just love having deep conversations with fans of Our Flag and talking with them in-depth about the aspect of the show they connected with. Our guest this week is Tanya Dickson (https://www.instagram.com/tanyadickson.ig/), an actor and writer, who is absolutely obsessed with Blackbeard — played by Taika Waititi. Of course, we cover the usual fandom news and updates but we also chat about what it is that makes certain people drawn to Blackbeard as a character. I think you’ll find our conversation fascinating. Have a listen!

It’s been the week of weeks here on the Our Flag Means Fanfiction Podcast. We dropped the Fandom Lore episode last Monday and it exceeded all expectations as far as listener interest.
On this week’s Epitizer, I’m reading two fics related to the new lore reveal about Izzy’s ring. ‘If You’ll Have Me’ by Mthestan asks “What if Izzy wears the ring at his neck not because it's something he received but because it is a constant offering, a perpetual proposal, a silent question he asks every time Ed looks his way?”
The next fic, ‘Five ways Izzy could have given away The Ring and one way we're deciding he actually did’ by little_fingies and rimbaudofficial is a Mature rating and described as humor with light feelings.
Be sure to give them both kudos and comments:

Izzy Canyon? Lubeasacrew? The WALL... Our Flag Means Death has generated an unprecedented amount of fandom lore. (We definitely couldn't cover it all in this episode, so there will be a part 2 at some point). Consider this the beginning of "An Oral History of OFMD Fandom Lore."
We also drop some real, canon, Izzy lore this week—approved by the legendary Con O'Neill himself!
Ringa Sunn is back on the pod, along with newcomers Chloe and Neil (anneiled on AO3). Also returning: co-hosts Lacey Bond (Joy.Goblin), Carly Delso-Saavedra (WGA_fandomLove on Twitter and fangirlfoto on Instagram) and Carly Heath (Yayvid_Jenkins on AO3).

On this week’s Epitizer, I’m narrating my most popular fic. It’s light. It’s fluffy. This is 'Whittle Me This' which is about Ed’s attempt to make things up to Lucius. Whittling doesn’t work. He tries other things. It eventually leads to them being attacked by the English Navy…. Izzy is alive through this whole thing. I imagine this as taking place in Season 3 after Izzy has crawled out of the grave and Stede/Ed have reunited with the Revenge.
if you’d like to narrate a fic for an upcoming epitizer, do that! Get the author’s permission first and make sure the run time is less than 60 minutes. Then send the audiofile to [email protected].

Fandom legend Ringa Sunn joins the pod this week!
Friends, as you know, a few weeks ago David Jenkins said it was the end of the road for Our Flag Means Death. Real talk: where's everyone at with season 3? Do you think it still could happen someday or are you sitting with your acceptance shark?
We discuss!
Co-hosts Lacey Bond (Joy.Goblin), Carly Delso-Saavedra (WGA_fandomLove on Twitter and fangirlfoto on Instagram) and Carly Heath are also talking about the Steddy Hands ship this week! Stede-Ed-Izzy! Three people! In love! What kind of Gen-Z chaos is this?

For this week’s episode, LoopyDangerFrog, also known as Katie, has granted us permission to share her narration of The Thoroughly and Entirely (Im)Proper Cuddling of Edward Teach by queenbee42. Katie’s narration is just SO GOOD. The emotion. The feeling… This is why she’s one of the best narrators out there.
I won’t spoil anything about this story but… your socks are about to be officially knocked off.

Hey… hey… hey…
Girl (gender neutral), how are you? How are we?
This week we heard some bad news: David Jenkins said it's the end of the road for Our Flag Means Death, and season 3 of the show has failed to find a home.
We talk about the latest update. (And we plan to double down on this podcast to celebrate the 30,000+ Our Flag fanfics that will keep our pirate heroes alive.)
Co-hosts Kate (YaFilthyNerds), Lacey Bond (Joy.Goblin), Tanya Dickson, and Carly Heath discuss the gentleman pirate, Stede Bonnet, this week. It's an episode explicitly made for the Rhys Darby Faction!
Some fics mentioned include:

We’re doing something new on the pod! Our main podcast episodes are still bi-weekly but on the off-weeks, we’ll have recorded excerpts of our favorite fics!
These are short episodes… mini-sodes, tiny pods if you will… Epitizers.
How are these fics chosen? Really, truly, there’s no gate keeping on here. If you find a fic and you love it enough to record yourself narrating it and then get the author’s permission to send it in.
So. In short. if you wanna record something for us! Go right ahead! Keep it under 30 min. Get the author’s permission – that’s important – then send it to me at [email protected] and I’ll put it up as an epitizer.
This week, Kate, known as YaFilthyNerds on Insta/Twitter/and AO3 has chosen: 'like a flower in bloom, how the ink flows over your skin' by ChangeTheCircumstances
It’s a tattoo slash flower shop modern AU and it’s incredibly well written. Great dynamics between Stede, Lucius and Oluwande. Some tags that may get you interested: "Lucius is the voice of reason and the relationship advice king" and "Slow Burn because they won't tell the other even though they practically fell in love at first sight."

While there may not be many fics about Prince Ricky Banes (played by Erroll Shand) in the Our Flag Means Death fandom, this episode is packed with so many theories, characterizations, and plot ideas that we're pretty sure AO3 will soon be flooded with Ricky fics after this podcast airs. Inspiration abounds! And we share some of the most unhinged ideas of all time.
The co-hosts this week are Lacey Bond (@joy.goblin on Instagram), host of the Temple of Geek Podcast; Kate, who is known as @yafilthynerds on Instagram, Twitter, and AO3; Amanda Lee who is @Solarpunkpirate and @prismhour on Twitter and Instagram; and, me, writer Carly Heath (Yayvid_jenkins on AO3) @carlylheath on Twitter and @carlylynheath on Instagram.

During the pod, Kate mentioned a fic where Ricky is following Izzy around like Ed is following Stede around. I’m not 100% sure which it is, but I think it’s one of these:

So we’re talking about Jim this week! Everyone’s favorite non-binary, polyamorous pirate. We love Jim. They are one member of the crew other than Ed and Stede who’s got a fleshed-out backstory. This week we talk about what more we’d love to see from Jim.
Also: Season 3? Yes! We're manifesting it! We talk about the adoption efforts and so much more!

It was the shocker of the century! This week, prior to recording our first episode, we got the news that the wildly popular, hugely successful, and critically acclaimed Our Flag Means Death was allegedly canceled by Max. Of course, we believe in the power of turning poison into positivity, so we're going to keep on believing that Season 3 is happening (Because it will! We will make it happen!).
We're also continuing with our podcast plans!
This week, hosts Carly Heath (Yayvid_Jenkins on AO3), Carly Delso-Saavedra, Lacey Bond, and Katie (LoopyDangerFrog on AO3) talk about everyone's favorite grumpy First Mate—Israel "Izzy" Hands, played by the iconic Con O'Neill.
We discuss why we love him, how we'd like to see him depicted in fics, and what we'd like to see done with him in season 3 (may all our delulu come trululu).
