About the Episode

The Titanic: The Ship. The Myth. The Legend(???)…

This week, we REALLY investigate people’s obsessions with tragedy. Colin describes bad skincare for rich people while Sierra informs us on the anatomy of a boat. You’ll hear about whether or not Jack would float, an incredible oar-stealing woman, and one of the worst Aussies to build a ship.
