| 8/30/20 | Episode 20 - Gordon Laco | We heave-to part way through the reading of Fortune of War, to spend time with our special guest Gordon Laco, historical advisor on the movie Master and Commander - Far Side of the World. We talk about realism in historical movies and and delve into some of his personal connection with all things naval. | 53m 43s | ||||||
| 8/23/20 | Episode 19 - The Fortune of War (Part 2) | Jack's journey round the world continues, even though he's not in command of the ship.

| 8/15/20 | Episode 18 - The Fortune of War (Part 1) | Jack and Stephen have survived, and found their way from Desolation to civilisation - which in this case means cricket, culture and letters from home.

| 8/9/20 | Episode 17 - Desolation Island (Final Part); Brian Wilson | The Leopard is in deep trouble, getting deeper with every page of Desolation Island.

| 8/2/20 | Episode 16 - Desolation Island (Part 2) | With gaol fever aboard the Leopard, the discussion turns to disease and death.

Ch 5-7. | 57m 01s | ||||||
| 7/26/20 | Episode 15 - Desolation Island (Part 1) | Jack's family is growing, but so are his financial commitments; Stephen doubts whether he can ever be truly happy ... sounds like the perfect moment for a new sea voyage to Botany Bay. What can possibly go wrong? (except for spies, stowaways and storms, obviously). Ch 1-4 | 1h 07m 39s | ||||||
| 7/19/20 | Episode 14 - The Mauritius Command (Final Part); James Albright | Ian and Mike bring The Mauritius Command to an end: can Jack fare better without Clonfert, Corbett and Pym?

| 7/5/20 | Episode 12 - The Mauritius Command (Part 1) | Jack is married and settled in his dream cottage with Sophie - but the dream isn't working out perfectly, so a new mission in the Indian ocean has him hurrying to get to sea with Stephen again. Jack struggles to corral a group of fractious captains, and Ian and Mike explore a tenuous link to Star Trek - it's a voyage of discovery for everyone. Ch 1-3 | 1h 07m 08s | ||||||
| 6/28/20 | Episode 11 - HMS Surprise (Final Part) | It's been a long journey, but Jack and Stephen are finally headed for home. Before they get there, Jack must face the French, Stephen must face a duel, and they both must face the prospect of rejection. They seek comfort in music (if only we knew WHICH music). And, we get the punchline to the joke 'What do you call a giant tortoise on a remote Indian Ocean island?' Ch 9-11 | 1h 07m 56s | ||||||
