El transatlántico más famoso del mundo, el Queen Mary, fue protagonista de un oscuro suceso cerca de las costas de Irlanda. Cuando se encontraba a 80 kilómetros de la isla, el barco, que transportaba a 10.000 soldados estadounidenses y canadienses hasta Gran Bretaña, chocó contra su buque escolta, el HMS Curacoa. Este último se partió en dos y se hundió en seis minutos. El gigante transatlántico no se detuvo a rescatar supervivientes y 338 miembros de la tripulación perdieron la vida. El suceso se convirtió en uno de los secretos mejor guardados de la II Guerra Mundial. ¿Quién fue el culpable del hundimiento? Por vez primera, una expedición submarinista busca los restos del naufragio que descansan en el Atlántico a 125 metros de profundidad. ¿Fue el Curacoa quien tomó un derrotero fatal hacia el Queen Mary o fue este último el responsable? ¿Qué nos revelará la inmersión hasta el buque?.

Text us a pool question!In this bone-chilling Halloween episode, host Rudy Stankowitz dives headfirst into the haunted side of the pool world—where the ripples in the water might not be from your circulation pump. Beneath the calm shimmer of moonlit pools lies a darker current: ghost stories soaked in chlorine and mystery.Rudy takes listeners on a guided ghost tour through some of the most notoriously haunted swimming pools on Earth—the Queen Mary's first-class plunge, McCarren Park Pool's eerie echoes, The Rave's waterlogged concert hall in Milwaukee, and the Baker Hotel's decaying spa in Mineral Wells, Texas. Each haunted tale blends the supernatural with the mechanical—the hiss of an old centrifugal pump, the slow groan of a corroded valve, and the whisper of gravity-fed drains that might still be pulling something from the other side.But before the goosebumps get too deep, Rudy grounds the chills in cold, hard chemistry. He pulls back the cover on one of the pool world's biggest myths—the “10x rule” for breakpoint chlorination—and exposes why the dosing instructions printed on your calcium hypochlorite bucket might be dead wrong. You'll learn the truth about shocking a pool: when it's needed, when it's not, and how misreading combined chlorine levels can turn your wallet into the real victim.Then, things get even stranger. A listener calls in with a question about Jack's Magic products that takes an unexpected turn. Rudy shares his latest paranormal investigation findings—because of course he's the only guy who can go from breakpoint chlorination to EVP recordings without missing a beat. Add in the PHTA's latest initiative to help member businesses, and wrap it all up with a ghost story that'll have every pool pro double-checking their filter room after dark.From haunted hydraulics to myth-busting chemistry, this episode proves one thing: in the pool world, even the dead don't always rest at the bottom.Highlights:
Breathe Pictures Photography Podcast: Documentaries and Interviews
This week's show follows a journey that stretches from the Pacific to the Atlantic, five days, 2,845 miles by road, from LA, through Vegas, Denver, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, finally reaching New York City, and then a week at sea aboard the Queen Mary 2. I travelled with the photojournalist Marissa Roth, helping her bring home six precious heavy cases packed with nearly half a century of negatives; work that spans everything from Women and War, her lifetime project on the human cost of conflict, to assignments that shaped her long career behind the camera. Together we crossed America before sailing for Southampton with that extraordinary cargo. There were wrong turns, long drives and high North Atlantic waves, but more than anything, a reminder that photographs hold stories worth carrying safely home. Also on the show, special guest John Plews, a Titanic expert and fellow passenger shares facts about a ship made famous by tragedy. Links to all guests and features will be on the show page, my sincere thanks to our Extra Milers, without whom we wouldn't be walking each week and Arthelper.ai, giving photographers smart tools to plan, promote, and manage your creative projects more easily. WHY: A Sketchbook of Life is available here.

He was handsome, charming, and one of Henry VIII's most trusted courtiers, until he fell from grace with Queen Catherine Howard. But whispers survive of a darker story: an accusation of violence, a royal pardon, and a crime that seemed to vanish from the record. Was Thomas Culpeper guilty of a shocking offence, and did Henry VIII himself protect him from justice? Or was this just dangerous Tudor gossip, muddled by the existence of two Thomas Culpepers at court? Join me as I investigate one of Tudor England's most disturbing mysteries — where power, privilege, and silence could decide a man's fate.

This week's show featured Canadian singer Martin Kerr, whose new album is a powerful condemnation of the American fascist party and the lunatic in chief down there. Three songs about failed covert operations during WWII, including a brand new one about an incident with the Queen Mary, which was operating as a troop ship bringing American soldiers over to Europe. She was under strict orders not to stop for any reason. She hit a British cruiser midships, and that cruiser sank, with 300 of the 400 on board lost at sea. The Queen Mary did not stop to pick up the survivors. Speaking of scary, it was also my annual Halloween feature, and there were plenty of new releases from all around the world. We are still alive and kicking (back!)

Ghost stories from the Queen Mary suggest that it may be one of the most haunted ships in the world.

As word spreads of Queen Jane and the English people turn to Princess Mary instead, Dudley's coup plot rapidly unravels. The English Navy, forced ashore by storms, learns the situation and the sailors side with Mary, taking personnel and materiel to join her cause against Dudley. In London, efforts to secure the city from invasion collapse as the population rejects the new regime. Things are bleak for the nobles who orchestrated the new queen, and most rush to Mary to make whatever amends they can. As Mary takes her rightful place on the English throne, the Tower of London gets a passel of new residents. Most, including Jane herself, will eventually be executed, particularly after Wyatt's Rebellion sharpens the sense of danger to the Queen and her counselors. It's a bleak story for fans of Jane Grey, whose personal ambitions do not appear to have included becoming Queen of England, and who was poorly used by powerful men pursuing their own agendas.

The most successful political party in Europe is contemplating oblivion. The Conservatives, soundly rejected last year by voters, have a leader no-one likes, the fewest MPs in their history, and an existential threat from Reform UK's rise. Is there a way back, as there was after 1997? Or is this the moment the Tories run out of ideas and time? Phil and Roger ask Tim Bale, Professor of Politics at Queen Mary, University of London, and author of “The Conservative Party After Brexit: Turmoil and Transformation” Hosted on Acast.

In May of 1588 150 ships of the Spanish Armada would begin sailing for England on a mission of conquest. What occurred during that attempt would come to be known as....The Spanish Armada. Yes I know it's confusing, it refers to both the armada of the Spanish and the naval campaign against the English Navy. Ok we good now? Basically Spain was pissed because the newly crowned Queen Elizabeth I of England told the recently widowed Philip II of Spain (who was formerly the King of England through marriage to Elizabeth's dead half-sister Queen Mary who changed England from Protestant to Catholic) that she wouldn't marry him and was taking England back to the Protestant way of doing things. Philips took the news poorly and ran to the pope who gave Philip a voucher good for one free crusade. Spain and the recently Spanish acquired Portugal had the largest most powerful navy's in the world, so they totally wiped the floor with the English Navy right? Right? We guess you're just gonna have to listen to find out as we get Historically High on The Spanish Armada.Support the show

Long before she was Queen Mary I, or more infamously to her detractors as Bloody Mary, there was a young girl, born a princess, the first born child of King Henry VIII to reach adulthood, Mary, by his first with, Katherine of Aragon, so what was Mary's young life like? Who was involved in her christening, spoiler, what were the many marriage prospects created, and did she ever blame her father rather than Anne Boleyn for what befell her? Well to discuss all of this and much more I am pleased to welcome back Dr Peter Stiffell onto the podcast for a discussion all about his favourite figure from history!
In this second half of the story of Mary Adelaide, Duchess of Teck, Alicia takes us through the family's financial exile to Italy - Queen Vic thought living in Florence would restrain the lavish spending the Tecks were known for - and the circuitous, flu-induced path that took Fat Mary's daughter from shy noblewoman to future Queen of England.

This episode is brought to you by Incogni! In the tangle of British royals to come out of the Hanoverian period, most aren't memorable. This is probably partly due to Queen Victoria's long reign, but there was a cousin of the Queen that she was quite partial to: Fat Mary. Princess Mary Adelaide of Cambridge was 14 years the Queen's junior, but she and her siblings were the cousins who comprised Victoria's friend group during her heavily restricted childhood, and Mary's age made her almost a younger sister to the future Queen. Mary had little use for the notions of how women were supposed to behave, especially royal women, in her era, and enjoyed life lavishly. Her weight was a concern to her parents from a young age, and when it came time to find suitors for their daughter, few were forthcoming. Mary wouldn't walk down the aisle until the age of 32, when she found a love match with Frances, Duke of Teck, a member of a noble family in Germany. The couple prospered - though never financially - and in this Part One episode, we talk about Fat Mary's childhood, and the childhood of her daughter, the future Queen Mary. Let's say that having a large and extremely gregarious mother was not especially to the liking of her shy daughter. Sponsors Protect your privacy from data brokers, scammers, and more with Incogni.

Holidays pop up and Huw completely forgets he's taking a week off. So apologies for that on my end. We dive into the recent nuptials of one of our hosts. We then go down the haunting of the Queen Mary as well as a few other special items. Somehow a rabbit hole takes us into the world of comedy. Marc Maron is on a heater going after everyone and anyone. We find our way into the newest hot topic of male cheerleaders. This will lead us into the battle of the Chrises and RFK jr taking some shots. Finally there are new words coming to the dictionary and we're surprised but not shocked with the results. Hopefully everyone is keeping it together in the madness out there, stay safe.
Steve Smotrys, managing director and senior vice president, commercial for the Americas at HX Expeditions, has decades of experience in the cruise industry — but his first taste of travel came in the form of roadtrips up the California coast. And his first time on a cruise ship? During his senior prom, onboard the Queen Mary in Long Beach, California. In this episode of Humans of Travel, Smotrys reflects on his career journey, his passion for expedition cruising and how a pandemic-era social media post led him to meet his now-wife, Emmy. He also speaks about the evolution of the 130-year-old HX Expeditions (formerly Hurtigruten Expeditions), how the company is redefining what it means to explore remote parts of the world and why travel advisors shouldn’t be afraid to sell expeditions — even to clients who don’t consider themselves “adventurous.” This episode is sponsored by Travel Insured International.
