About this listen

Penguin presents the audiobook edition of Be More Pirate written and read by Sam Conniff Allende.

Whatever your ambitions, ideas and challenges, this book will revolutionize the way you live, think and work today, and tomorrow.

Pirates didn't just break the rules, they rewrote them. They didn't just reject society, they reinvented it. Pirates didn't just challenge the status-quo, they changed everyfuckingthing. Pirates faced a self-interested establishment, a broken system, industrial scale disruption and an uncertain future. Sound familiar?

Pirates stood for MISCHIEF, PURPOSE and POWER. And you can too.

In Be More Pirate, Sam Conniff Allende unveils the innovative strategies of Golden Age pirates, drawing parallels between the tactics and teachings of legends like Henry Morgan and Blackbeard with modern rebels, like Elon Musk, Malala and Banksy. Featuring takeaway sections and a guide to build you own pirate code 2.0, Be More Pirate will show you how to leave your mark on the 21st century.

So what are you waiting for? Join the rebellion now.

I enjoyed the way this book challenged traditional ways of thinking and the 'establishment'. It helped me developed new ideas, and strategy, but also emphasised the importance of a sustainable future. Great listen which I have already recommended to several people.

Amazing

This book was recommended to me at a co-production event and I am so glad that I paid attention and bought it as I really enjoyed it. The principles explored are really relatable and make so much sense, the idea of getting into "Good Trouble" is definitely one that I will be applying to my life and work.

Love it!

Be More Pirate Audio is a good way to pick up the outline and details in the book.
Having the ebook and a hard copy and a journal around is also key.

Great book and great narration spoilt slightly by a quieter than normal audible recording meaning I had to play on full volume on headphones and still wasn't quite loud enough to play in street environments or busy trains.
