In this episode of The History AI Podcast, Chuck and Marco dive into the blood-soaked tale of Jeanne de Clisson – the noblewoman-turned-pirate queen who terrorized French ships for over a decade. After the brutal execution of her husband by King Philip VI of France, Jeanne sold everything she owned, bought a fleet of warships, and declared a one-woman war against the French crown. With her infamous black-sailed flagship My Revenge, she hunted down French vessels, executing crews and sending a chilling message back to the king.
