But the tragedy is only one piece of the mystery surrounding this iconic shipwreck. In "Mystery of the Michigan Triangle: The Sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald," we delve into the chilling events leading up to the disaster and explore the eerie phenomenon known as the Michigan Triangle. Known for its history of unexplained disappearances and strange occurrences, the Michigan Triangle has become a hotspot for supernatural speculation. Was the Edmund Fitzgerald claimed by the violent storm that night, or was something more sinister at play? Join us as we uncover the mystery and eerie legends that continue to surround the ship's fateful sinking.The sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald remains one of the most mysterious and tragic events in Great Lakes history. On November 10, 1975, the massive freighter, carrying 29 crew members, was caught in a brutal storm on Lake Superior. The ship, known for its size and strength, was battered by 50-foot waves and 70 mph winds, but no distress signals were sent before it disappeared from radar. Just after 7 p.m., the Edmund Fitzgerald sank in the frigid waters, taking all 29 men aboard to their deaths. Despite extensive searches, no bodies were recovered, and the wreck was found more than 500 feet underwater. The exact cause of the sinking remains a mystery to this day, with theories ranging from structural failure to freak wave patterns, adding to the enduring intrigue and tragedy surrounding the Edmund Fitzgerald. #EdmundFitzgerald #MichiganTriangle #GreatLakesMysteries #ShipwreckMysteries

On November 9th, 1975, the ore freighter, Edmund Fitzgerald, once known as the "Queen of the Great Lakes" left the Burlington Railroad Loading Dock No 1, in Superior, WI.  Loaded with over 26,000 tons of iron ore, "Big Fitz" was to arrive at Zug Island, MI 46 hours later, as it had done many times over. As recalled in Gordon Lighfoot's famous song, "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald," the ship never completed the journey, ending up on the bottom of Lake Superior, taking her crew of 29 men with her.  Scott and Mickey discuss the Fitzgerald, the ship's beginnings all the way to her tragic end, as well as Wisconsin's many connections to the most famous shipwreck in Great Lake's history.    Facebook Twitter Website Email us:  badgerbizarre@outlook.com   Opening Trailer: Ed Gein Sound Byte : "Hard Copy" - Paramount Domestic/CBS Televsion Frank Lloyd Wright and Jeffery Dahmer Sound Byte - WISN 12 News - Milwaukee, WI Jeffery Dahmer Quotes: "Inside Edition"  - King World/CBS Television/CBS Media   Attribution for Music: Trailer: Composer: Adam Phillip Zwirchmayr https://www.pond5.com/ Intro: https://pixabay.com/ Outro: Composer: Viacheslav Sarancha  https://www.pond5.com/     Attribution for logo design: Red Claw Scratch Photo     Sources:   Duluth News Tribune - Archives Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum Green Bay Press Gazette - Archives Lightfoot, Gordon - "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" - Utilized via Fair Use Doctrine MacInnis, Joseph - "Fitzgerald's Storm" Mixter, Ric - The Edmund Fitzgerald Exploration Lecture Series Stonehouse, Frederick - "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald"   Pleaae visit our Sponsors: FrameMakers

In this conclusion to the story of the Edmund Fitzgerald, we return to the icy waters of Lake Superior to explore the theories and lingering mysteries surrounding its tragic sinking. Without a distress signal or survivors, the ship's disappearance left behind a haunting legacy of unanswered questions. Was it the crushing force of rogue waves, a structural failure, or a perilous encounter with the shallow waters of Six Fathom Shoal that brought down the mighty freighter? Guided by Gordon Lightfoot's haunting ballad, we reflect on how his unforgettable lyrics gave voice to the lost crew and transformed the tragedy into a timeless legend. Along the way, we'll examine eerie discoveries at the wreck site—like the massive ghostly silhouette of the ship resting on the lakebed—and unravel the details that continue to captivate. Discover how the ship's story lives on and why it still resonates nearly 50 years later.

In this 237th Episode of the Small Scale Life Podcast, Adam and Tom discuss 20 Simple Steps for a Better Holiday Season.  By using these 20 Simple Steps, we cannot guarantee that you will have a joyous and calm holiday season, but we can definitely say that you will be lined up for success since you are ready mentally and have prepared for what is coming. Gatherings and obligations wash over us like the raging gales of November, and if we are not careful and do not plan, we can be dragged down the dark and cold depths like the Edmund Fitzgerald on Lake Superior. The Gales of November and December are starting to pick up; can you feel them? It doesn't have to be that way. It shouldn't be that way. How can we do better and be better to avoid these storms during the holidays? The answer is found byy following the advice from my Assistant Scoutmaster days: "Planning and being prepared." As I look back on what was successful during the holidays (and especially at what wasn't), it really comes down to having a plan and executing. It also comes back to being able to laugh, go with flow and not getting wrapped around the axle of agendas, poor planning and endless guilt trips. You do that by not taking yourself too seriously and not having a plan. We have 20 simple steps, but you never know, we might come up with a few more along the way. I am super excited to talk about Step 16: Establish New Traditions. For links, show notes and support, check out more at https://smallscalelife.com.

The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald Every year around this time, I do a show about an enduring maritime tragedy: the sinking of the ore carrier Edmund Fitzgerald on Lake Superior on Nov. 10, 1975. The incident, where the ship was lost in a storm and all hands perished, is emblematic of the risks all mariners take when they go to sea, and of the grief endured by their loved ones on land - waiting for those who never return home. Today and every year on the show, we honor those lost at sea by commemorating this tragedy. This show features Gordon Lightfoot's iconic song about the tragedy, which is a factual account of what happened. We'll take a look at what happened aboard the FItzgerald that led her her demise on an icy night on the big lake.

It's episode 92 and we're talking about t*ts and shipwrecks! First up, we dive into North America's Great Lakes and learn about the first known shipwreck in 1679--Le Griffon--and bookend it with the last major shipwreck, the SS Edmund Fitzgerald. We also talk about the Great Storm of 1913 and the weather systems that can make the Great Lakes so dangerous! After the break, we saddle up our horses, let our hair down and spark one up for Lady Godiva, who may have gotten her t*ts out for lower taxes!

Rich gives us a deep dive on one of the most famous shipwrecks in both history and pop culture, the Edmund Fitzgerald.The Big Fitz was the pride of the Great Lakes, a massive ore hauler that did the run from Wisconsin down to Detroit, Michigan. This trip took tons upon tons of ore over the dangerous waters of the Great Lakes, particularly those of Lake Superior. It was while on Superior on November 10, 1975 that the Edmund Fitzgerald was caught in an early winter storm and lost with all hands. The loss of the massive ship and it's crew sparked an extensive search as well as the famous song.The History Things Podcast is brought to you by History Things with Pat & Matt Borders Books!Follow the guys on social media by searching for @TheHistoryThingsPodcast! - Facebook.com/thehistorythingspodcast- instagram.com/thehistorythingspodcast- YouTube.com/thehistorythingspodcast

When Starship Troopers came out, it was received as a piece of pro-military fascist propaganda, even though director Paul Verhoeven insisted it was a satire. Nonetheless, critics panned it, and it barely broke even on its high budget. The A24 rocks crew discuss whether the satire still hits home 27 years later. Caution: movie spoilers.

A limnic eruption, or lake overturn, is a super rare natural disaster where a lake suddenly releases a huge bubble of dissolved carbon dioxide (CO2) from its depths. This gas cloud can suffocate wildlife, livestock, and even people nearby. It happens when volcanic activity or a landslide disturbs the deep, CO2-rich water, causing it to rapidly rise and release the gas. Recognizing an impending limnic eruption can be tricky, but signs might include unusual lake bubbling, dead fish, or a sudden change in the lake's color. And if you see it, you'd better stay away from it. Preview photo credit: Dan Keck / Flickr https://www.flickr.com/photos/1406411... Animation is created by Bright Side.
