In this episode of the Crux True Survival Story Podcast, hosts Julie Henningsen and Kaycee McIntosh recount the catastrophic events surrounding the sinking of the Costa Concordia on January 13, 2012. This maritime disaster, caused by Captain Francesco Schettino's reckless decision to perform a risky maneuver close to shore, resulted in the deaths of 32 people and exposed significant failures in leadership and emergency procedures. The episode explores survivor accounts, the chaotic evacuation process, the captain's controversial actions, and the subsequent legal and engineering efforts to right and salvage the massive cruise ship. The story underscores the importance of decisive leadership and proper safety protocols in preventing such tragedies. 00:00 Introduction to the Podcast 00:23 Setting the Scene: The Costa Concordia 01:36 The Luxurious Costa Concordia 05:51 The Fateful Night: January 13, 2012 07:05 Captain Schettino's Critical Decisions 08:30 The Collision and Immediate Aftermath 12:02 Chaos and Evacuation Efforts 15:39 Survivor Accounts and Heroic Efforts 18:48 Testimonies and Delayed Evacuation 19:24 Chaos and Confusion Among Crew and Passengers 19:51 Survivor Accounts and Tragic Stories 20:43 Captain's Early Departure and Leadership Failures 21:38 Rescue Operations and Legal Consequences 24:08 Salvage Operations and Aftermath 28:30 Lessons Learned and Industry Changes 31:24 Conclusion and Final Thoughts 32:37 Podcast Outro and Listener Engagement Main sources that verify these details about the Costa Concordia: Italian Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport's official investigation report (2013) Maritime Safety Investigation Report by the Marine Casualties Investigative Body Legal Documents: Criminal Trial Transcripts - Court of Grosseto (2013-2015) Key Survivor Accounts Verified By Media: Rose Metcalf (British crew member) BBC News interview (January 17, 2012) The Telegraph interview (January 18, 2012) Georgia Ananias and family Associated Press (January 14, 2012) The Guardian coverage (January 15, 2012) Benji Smith and Emily Lau Published book: "Abandoned Ship" (2013) CNN interview (January 2013) Official Communications: Italian Coast Guard Records Costa Cruises Official Statements Technical Analysis: Lloyd's Register Technical Investigation (2012) Salvage Operation Reports (2012-2014) Ship Specifications and Construction: Lloyd's Register of Shipping (2006) - Technical specifications including size, tonnage, and construction costs Fincantieri Shipyard Official Documentation (2006) - Construction details and vessel specifications Costa Cruises Press Release (July 2006) - Launch details and official specifications Amenities and Features: Costa Cruises Official Brochure (2011-2012 season) - Detailed listing of onboard facilities "Cruise Ships: The World's Most Luxurious Vessels" by Peter C.

Ever been woken up at 3 a.m. by a party next door, or found yourself in a cold war over parking spaces with the guy across the street? Buckle up, because we're joined by Cleo, a sage of the property management realm, to unpack the knotty world of neighbourly spats. Our chat traverses the terrain of preemptive peace-making – think door-knocking for the real skinny on your future block – and the underestimated clout of a good first impression. Noise complaints might just be the tip of the iceberg in modern living, but with Cleo's seasoned insights, we're laying out the blueprint to mend fences and silence the squabbles that can make home life less than heavenly.As we stir the pot on community dynamics, we discover that a dash of personality, a sprinkle of effort, and a hearty dollop of neighborly love are the secret ingredients to a blissful block. Taking a leaf out of the raucous romp "Bad Neighbours", we chuckle over the quirks of cohabitation and the winsome ways we can turn a potential nemesis into the pal next door. So, slide into your comfiest slippers and tune in; we're serving up stories and strategies that might just transform your street into the friendly avenue of your dreams. With Cleo in the conversation, it's not just talk – it's a masterclass in crafting a harmonious habitat.
Tomorrow we're going to try and escape.
It's over. The nightmare is over.
It's a sound I'll never be able to forget.
This isn't exactly your normal level of creepy shit.
Good luck and stay safe
Up until now, I've never believed in the concept of jinxing.
It's December 5th, 1872. The waters of the Atlantic are cold and desolate. Unforgiving. A British brigantine, the Dei Gratia sits about 400 miles east of the Azores when crew members spot a ship that seems to just be bobbing on the endless waves - lifeless in an ocean that seems to never end. The Captain of the Dei Gratia, David Morehouse was surprised when he discovered that the ship his men were seeing, was none other than the Mary Celeste - a brigantine that left New York City eight days earlier bound for Genoa, Italy. Surely, they should have made it by now, he thought. Something must be wrong. Under the order of Captain Morehouse, the Dei Gratia changes course in an attempt to investigate the seemingly abandoned ship. Upon arrival at the Celeste, Morehouse sends a search party that includes first mate Oliver Deveau and second mate John Wright to board the brigantine and begin a search. Among the many strange things that the De Gratia crew discovered upon boarding the ship, was that her vessels were set, her cargo intact, but her crew of ten, including Captain Benjamin Briggs, his wife, and their two-year- old daughter was nowhere to be found. Below deck, the ship's charts and maps were a mess, but present. It's only lifeboat was missing, and one of it's two pumps had been strangely disassembled. There was over a 6 month supply of both food and water, but no one aboard the ship to consume it. The absence of life aboard the Celeste immediately fueled rumors and speculation, that still send shivers down the spines of some of modern day's most seasoned nautical investigators. Again, under orders of Captain Morehouse, the crew of the Dei Gratia took control of the abandoned ship and sailed it 800 miles to Gibraltar where a British court convened a salvage hearing to determine if the spoils of the Mary Celeste would be divided up amongst the crew of the Dei Gratia under maritime salvage insurance law. The case wouldn't be so cut and dry though, as the attorney general in charge of the inquiry, Frederick Solly - Flood, suspected that foul play may have played a part in the mysterious vanishing of the ship's crew. That is where tonight's story begins. Welcome back to Vanished. This is the Mary Celeste.

Alright class, please find your seats. We are continuing our lecture series on the Keepers today as we come back to Virgil and Jacques on their way home to the Keeper Fortress. Where we last left off, the young initiates had staved off an ambush from a couple of vicious predators that had been hunting them in the Shiitake Forest. Following their unlikely success, the boys took a moment to acknowledge their accomplishments before continuing on their way home. After all, they would have quite the journey ahead of them and were certainly looking worse for wear. We now find the initiates walking through the forest, drawing closer to their destination and bringing an end to their free evening. But these young lads aren't out of the woods yet - it seems that some adventure still awaits before they can lay their weary heads to rest. What other mysteries lurk in the Shiitake Forest? Will the boys' past come back to haunt them? And will Jacques attempt to play the lute… again?! Let's find out in our latest installment: Curious! DM: Jonah M.

Once upon a time the Mary Celeste was just a ship like any other, ferrying goods to and fro across the oceans -- at least, that is, until December 1872, when the Canadian brigantine Dei Gratia found the Mary Celeste adrift and abandoned. The ship showed no signs of a struggle. The cargo was intact. The lifeboat was missing, but the occupants of the Mary Celeste were never seen again.

In 1872 the British merchant ship Mary Celeste was discovered drifting and apparently abandoned 600 miles off the coast of Portugal. In this episode of the Futility Closet podcast we'll review this classic mystery of the sea: Why would 10 people flee a well-provisioned, seaworthy ship in fine weather? We'll also get an update on the legal rights of apes and puzzle over why a woman would not intervene when her sister is drugged.
