Some stories grip you because of the storm. Others stay with you because of what comes after.New York Times bestselling author John U. Bacon has written more than a dozen books from leadership lessons drawn from coaching America's worst high school hockey team, to Michigan classics to his latest, The Gales of November, the untold story behind the Edmund Fitzgerald and the brutal, invisible world of Great Lakes shipping.In this episode, John and I cover a lot of ground: what makes a leader worth following, why disaster is almost never one thing, the Colin Powell quote every boss should keep close, and why first drafts are supposed to stink. We talk about Bo Schembechler's secret superpower (it wasn't yelling), the wild west of college football today, and the parenting wisdom of getting out of the way and letting the kids play their own game.We also share a tender moment about my parents who sat in John's University of Michigan classroom in retirement and lived a curiosity-first chapter that still shapes how I move through the world.If you're navigating a curveball, building something new, raising kids, or just trying to figure out what to keep and what to let go… this one's for you.johnubacon.compaigekornblue.com

As big freighters go, the Edmund Fitzgerald was the biggest, the best and the most profitable ship on the Great Lakes. Then, on Nov. 10, 1975, facing gale-force winds and 50-foot waves, the ship sank, taking all 29 men aboard her down into the icy depths of Lake Superior.

Some shipwrecks are fully understood—torpedoes, storms, and icebergs explain exactly what happened.⚓ Titanic struck an iceberg
On November 10, 1975, the SS Edmund Fitzgerald, a legendary 729-foot Great Lakes ore carrier known as the “Mighty Fitz,” tragically sank in a violent storm on Lake Superior, claiming the lives of all 29 crew members in one of the most infamous maritime disasters in American history. Carrying over 26,000 tons of taconite pellets … Continue reading Episode 502: The Wreck of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald
At the bottom of the Great Lakes, the dead don't disappear. They stay exactly where they were left. Perfectly preserved. Suspended in the dark. Sometimes drifting. Sometimes… moving. For hundreds of years, ships have vanished into these waters, taking their crews, their stories, and something else with them. And every now and then, the lakes remind us that none of it is truly gone.

When Randy Flood, psychotherapist and Director of the Men's Resource Center, received “The Gales of November” by John U. Bacon as a gift, he says he “absolutely devoured” it. Bacon's book resonated with Flood not only because of his family's history with Lake Superior or because he could immediately hear Gordon Lightfoot's haunting song honoring [...]
Canadian singer-songwriter Gordon Lightfoot is best known for enduring classics like “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald” and “If You Could Read My Mind.” But one of his lesser-known songs is titled “The Minstrel of the Dawn.” (A minstrel is a troubadour, a singer who puts his poetry to music.) Like us, Lightfoot’s troubadour longs to be “more happy than blue.” Although there are always “blue” things to think about or dwell on, the minstrel chooses to focus on the happy things as the new day dawns and then sing about them. The minstrel of the psalms, David, penned a similar line: “In the morning I will sing of your love” (Psalm 59:16). David had plenty of “blue” things to dwell on—from enemies ready to attack him to fierce men slandering and conspiring against him. “They return at evening,” he sang, “snarling like dogs, and prowl about the city” (v. 14). But he chose, as the new day dawned, to focus not simply on something happy but on Someone good—God—and then sing of God’s love, “my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble” (v. 16) on “whom I can rely” (v. 17). You may not be a singer-songwriter, but you can still be a minstrel of the dawn. Like David, you can tell God, “I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love” (v. 16).
0:00 - UNC got bounced from the Big Dance by VCU yesterday. Love a good 6v11 upset. After the game, UNC Head Coach Hubert Davis had an odd postgame presser. Not in the usual sad, depressed, or angry way coaches get after a tough loss. It was just...weird.15:26 - We've all been talking about the impact Jaylen Waddle can have with the football in his hands. TDs, yards, catches, etc. But what about his impact WITHOUT the football? When he doesn't have it in his hands? How can he open up the field for his teammates?32:10 - Oh, by the way...the Madison Mallards (collegiate summer baseball team) is having an "Edmund Fitzgerald" themed night this summer. Really? We're having theme nights about shipwrecks that killed lots of people? Oh, by the way...the Arizona Diamondbacks will offer a healthy food option at the ballpark this season. Oh, by the way...let Jack Hughes have his friggin gold medal puck. The hockey Hall of Fame needs to get over itself. You're not that guy, pal.

Joe MacInnis has spent his life going where very few people ever have — beneath the ice at the North Pole, down to the wreck of the Titanic, and into the deep waters of Lake Superior to visit the Edmund Fitzgerald. Now 88, the Canadian physician and deep-sea explorer looks back on a lifetime of high-risk exploration. He talks about the moment he caught “sea fever” as a teenager, what those extreme environments taught him about fear and teamwork, and why leadership — not technology is what really matters when survival is on the line.

En noviembre de 1975, el lago Superior reclamó al Edmund Fitzgerald, un gigante de acero que desapareció en medio de una tormenta sin dejar sobrevivientes. Veintinueve hombres se hundieron con él… y las explicaciones nunca fueron suficientes. Las comunicaciones finales, las teorías enfrentadas y un naufragio partido en dos en el fondo del lago alimentan una pregunta que aún resuena entre las aguas frías: ¿qué fue lo que realmente hundió al Fitzgerald? En este episodio de Nébula, nos adentramos en uno de los misterios más inquietantes de la navegación moderna, donde la ciencia, el azar y lo inexplicable se cruzan en la oscuridad. Apaga las luces. El lago aún guarda secretos. Mail: nebulaelpodcast2024@gmail.com Whatsapp: (+34) 613.30.86.97.

Clay joins author John U. Bacon of Ann Arbor, Michigan, whose book, The Gales of November: The Untold Story of the Edmund Fitzgerald, takes a new look at the sinking of the Fitzgerald on November 10, 1975. Four years in the making, Bacon's research unearthed new material on the catastrophe, in which all 29 crew members (all men) perished when the Edmund Fitzgerald went down. Was there crew error or hubris in Captain Ernest McSorley? Was the great 729-foot ship structurally unsound? Or was it just a perfect storm? The winds rose to 100 miles per hour that day, and the waves were sometimes 60 feet or more high. The Fitzgerald settled on the bottom of Lake Superior more than 500 feet below the surface. It has been visited several times since, but the Canadian government, whose territorial waters the incident occurred in, severely restricts visitation because it regards it as a gravesite. This episode was recorded on November 24, 2025.
For three decades following World War II, the Great Lakes overtook Europe as the epicenter of global economic strength. The region was the beating heart of the world economy, possessing all the power and prestige Silicon Valley does today. And no ship represented the apex of the American Century better than the 729-foot-long Edmund Fitzgerald―the biggest, best, and most profitable ship on the Lakes.But on November 10, 1975, as the “storm of the century” threw one hundred mile-per-hour winds and 50-foot waves on Lake Superior, the Mighty Fitz found itself at the worst possible place, at the worst possible time. When she sank, she took all twenty-nine men onboard down with her, leaving the tragedy shrouded in mystery for a half century.In The Gales of November, award-winning journalist John U. Bacon presents the definitive account of the disaster, drawing on more than one hundred interviews with the families, friends, and former crewmates of those lost. Bacon explores the vital role Great Lakes shipping played in America's economic boom, the uncommon lives the sailors led, the sinking's most likely causes, and the heartbreaking aftermath for those left behind―"the wives, the sons, and the daughters,” as Gordon Lightfoot sang in his unforgettable ballad.Focused on those directly affected by the tragedy, The Gales of November is both an emotional tribute to the lives lost and a propulsive, page-turning narrative history of America's most-mourned maritime disaster. https://www.amazon.com/Gales-November-Untold-Edmund-Fitzgerald/dp/1324094648http://www.yourlotandparcel.org
One of the worst nautical disasters in recent American history is the sinking of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald. On November 10, 1975, the “storm of the century” threw 100 mile-per-hour winds and 50-foot waves on Lake Superior. The ship found itself at the worst possible place, at the worst possible time. When she sank, she took all 29 men onboard down with her, leaving the tragedy shrouded in mystery for a half century. The sinking of the SS Edmund Fitzgerald is so strange because the ship was exceptionally large and strong, and would normally be able to shrug off storms like this. At 75 feet wide and 729 feet long, the Fitzgerald was at the time of her launch the largest ship on the lakes, and she repeatedly broke her own records for the largest loads, the fastest runs, and the biggest season hauls throughout her career. She was a champion heavyweight, sprinter, and workhorse, all in one. To make the sinking stranger, she suddenly disappeared in a bad storm on Lake Superior without sending any distress calls despite having a massive modern radio system. The most widely accepted theories for the disaster include the ship hitting a shoal, suffering a structural failure like a broken back, or being overwhelmed by massive "three sisters" rogue waves. However, some less common and conspiracy-like theories suggest the crew did not properly close the hatch covers, the ship was actually split by a UFO, or that it was the victim of a secret Coast Guard experiment gone wrong. Todays’ guest is John Bacon, author of “The Gales of November: The Untold Story of the Edmund Fitzgerald.” We explore the vital role Great Lakes shipping played in America’s economic boom, the uncommon lives the sailors led, the sinking’s most likely causes, and the aftermath for those left behind.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A new book sheds light on the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, the loved ones left behind and the sweeping history of the largest lakes in the world.
The average lake around the world is about the size of a large parking lot – the kind of thing you might try to skip a stone across. The current World Record for stone skipping is 88 skips. If you were to skip a stone across the lake we're visiting today, it would have to beat that number by about 406, 912 and it would be bouncing across the water for about three hours.On today's episode: You'll learn about the most boat-hungry lakes anywhere in the world; you'll see why you would rather be beaten half-to-death in the face with a bat than visit the site of today story; and you'll find out how a cherished keepsake from our tale was recovered by a nightmarish bright orange, alien-shaped robot monster made out of airplane-grade aluminum.And because you are listening on Patreon… you will figure out if flat-earthers are just the dumbest people in the world or the dumbest people in history; you will get to walk through the deadliest things to ever happen on the Greatest Lake system in the world; and you will hear a sode inside a sode about a storm from 1913 so powerful than when they needed a name they settled on “Great”.We can only barely understand how frightening today's story must have been for the men who were lost and the families they left behind. I feel a real responsibility to tell their stories with accuracy and respect knowing there are real people out there connected to the story and still wounded by it. That said, outside of calling the ship the Eddy Fitz one time, and then the way I give description to the indescribable physical hell you'd experience if you grabbed a snorkel and tried to visit the site of the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, I think maintained a definite air of respect during this episode. You'd be honestly surprised at how many people were so deeply touched and effected by the event. Sorry for sounding so gloomy at the end, but sometimes I get bummed out. Not as bummed as the families of those lost on Gitchi Goomie mind you. With all that said, there are only two more episodes in the year, but they are really something. We'll be having our least nauseating visit to Victorian England in search of outdoor entertainment. And the last episode is our return to the Disaster Moviesode format by popular demand. The last time we did one, it was the 1998 Michael Bay schlocktacular “Armageddon” – a movie so bereft of sense or scientific consideration, they used it at NASA as a test to see how many things you could find wrong with it. Well, this time, we have a film so preposterous, it makes Armageddon look misunderstood. And it contains within it's 2 hours and 15 minute running time almost every type of disaster, except ironically, asteroids. It's the 2003 Aaron Eckhart movie, “The Core”, and I know you're going to like it. I saw it in the theatre, and I certainly didn't.If you like what you hear today, why not consider becoming a supporter of the show at Patreon.com/FuneralKazoo AD-FREE EPISODES, LONGER EPISODES, EXTRA CONTENT, all that good stuff (I'm truly sorry about those ads, I don't get to control them or their placement).

A packed Friday show begins with the Jets sinking even deeper as Justin Fields struggles again after one early touchdown drive. Boomer and Gio question how the team can keep putting him out there and what exactly the Jets are trying to accomplish the rest of the season. Jerry Recco's first update features the sounds of another Patriots win, Willie Colon declaring Fields is not an NFL quarterback, and reaction from Shane Bowen as he prepares for the Packers. Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani sweep the MVP awards, Scott Boras starts hyping Cody Bellinger, and Boomer laughs about Islanders rookie Matthew Schaefer being born the same year he started at WFAN. Hour two shifts to the Giants' head coaching search. Will they go with an experienced veteran or gamble on another coordinator. Gio sees both paths as possible and compares the situation to how the Patriots built around Drake Maye. Mike Tomlin's name surfaces, but acquiring him would take a trade. Jerry returns with more Jets misery, Dexter Lawrence reacts to Brian Daboll's firing, Mike Francesa's old Ohtani take resurfaces, and the guys talk about Barstool's Internet Invitational. Gio then wrestles with his Week 11 picks after going 0 for 5. Hour three features Boomer getting an alert about California flash floods and praising the Patriots' uniforms. Gio reveals his new obsession with the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald and jokes that this is what aging men do. He also admits he struggles with scripted streaming shows if there are actors instead of documentary storytelling. Jerry brings more Patriots Jets audio as Brock Purdy prepares to return for San Francisco. The hour ends with Gio reacting to two unnecessary apologies and a batch of fun calls. Hour four opens with the Patriots winning their eighth straight over the Jets as Drake Maye looks fully in command. The discussion turns to what the Giants need in their next head coach for Jaxson Dart and why the Jets must turn to Tyrod Taylor. Jerry's final update of the day features Justin Fields' uneven performance, Shane Bowen's comments on Daboll's firing, and Judge and Ohtani's MVP celebrations. Scott Boras pumps up Cody Bellinger, the Moment of the Day features a Chris Russo prank call, and the week wraps with Boomer and Gio's NFL picks for Week eleven.
The hour starts with Boomer mentioning an alert on his phone about flash floods in California and admitting he loved the Patriots uniforms last night, calling them fresh. Gio explains that he has been reading about the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald and insists this is what happens to men as they get older. He also talks about trying to get into big streaming shows but struggling whenever real actors show up instead of documentary storytelling. Jerry Recco returns with more sounds from another Patriots win over the Jets, their eighth straight in the matchup. We also hear from Brock Purdy as he prepares to return for the Niners, plus reaction to Aaron Judge winning the A. L. MVP. The hour wraps with Gio discussing two apologies he thought were totally unnecessary. Amon Ra St. Brown apologized if he offended anyone with the Trump dance, and Scott Van Pelt apologized for calling Russell Wilson Mr. Limited. The phones open up for a batch of fun, random calls.
Gio explains how he suddenly fell down a rabbit hole reading about the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. From ship logs to documentaries to late night deep dives, he breaks down why this historic tragedy has become his latest fascination and jokes that this is exactly what happens to men as they get older. Boomer reacts as Gio details how he got hooked and why it's now dominating his free time.

Cody Has Conspiracies over the Edmund Fitzgerald
The Edmund Fitzgerald went down 50 years ago on Nov. 10, 1977. The ore carrier simply vanished from the surface of Lake Superior. It was an ominous ending — mysterious and tragic, too. Hundreds of other vessels have sunk in the big lake, and shipwreck hunters still work to find their watery resting places. Guest Christa Lawler shares some of Lake Superior's striking shipwreck stories with host Erica Pearson. Still curious? Read more at the Minnesota Star Tribune.

On Nov. 10, 1975, during a calamitous storm, the Edmund Fitzgerald sunk below the waves of Lake Superior. All 29 men aboard went down with the vessel. With no survivors and no eyewitnesses, there's always been a sense of mystery to what is arguably the most famous shipwreck in American history. The story itself was almost immediately immortalized in Gordon Lightfoot's surprise hit ballad “The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.”Fifty years on, John U. Bacon has written a new account of the disaster. In “The Gales of November: The Untold Story of the Edmund Fitzgerald,” he humanizes the story, telling stories of each man on the ship as well as several of the families left behind. (Readers will also learn a good deal about the history of industry and shipping on the Great Lakes.). In this week's episode of the Book Review podcast, Bacon spoke with the host Gilbert Cruz about his new book. Subscribe today at nytimes.com/podcasts or on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! From abandoned farmhouses to shipwrecked souls, Brad Blair has spent a lifetime chasing what others run from. As a teen in Michigan's upper peninsula, Brad spent his nights exploring the forgotten corners of the state — broken barns, shadowed fields, and the echoes of history that refused to die. Armed with a Ouija board and teenage curiosity, he and his friends sought out spirits and found more than they bargained for. Years later, Brad turned his passion into a profession, founding the Upper Peninsula Paranormal Research Society. In this episode of The Grave Talks, Brad takes us inside some of his most haunting investigations — including a chilling encounter at a shipwreck museum, where many believe the spirit of the Edmund Fitzgerald still lingers. Join us for tales of haunted waters, restless spirits, and the enduring mystery of Michigan's ghostly north. #TheGraveTalks #BradBlair #UpperPeninsulaGhosts #HauntedMichigan #EdmundFitzgerald #ShipwreckGhosts #RealGhostStoriesOnline #ParanormalPodcast #GhostHunting #HauntedHistory #SpiritsOfTheDeep #MichiganHauntings Love real ghost stories?
