In the fiery debut of The Shipwreck Show, Shipwreck hits the ground running with unfiltered commentary, personal stories, and plenty of salt. Broadcasting live on Badlands Media, she tackles the latest James O'Keefe “suicidal teaser” video, calling out its dramatic delivery and underwhelming payoff, while questioning the media's addiction to theatrics. She dives deep into the Epstein-Prince Andrew saga, the Alex Jones-Pam Bondi speculation, and why sensational drops no longer work on an exhausted, red-pilled audience. Shipwreck also reviews Tucker Carlson's viral interview about underground military tunnels and secret energy tech, breaking down theories about deep state bunkers, breakthrough energy, and the 1997 financial “coup” that may have enabled it all. Along the way, she blends serious analysis with irreverent humor, venting frustration over performative politics, failed accountability, and the influencer-ification of Congress. But it's not all fire and fury, Shipwreck also shares her passion for homemade sourdough bread, homeschooling, and the cultural revival she sees unfolding among Gen Z and young moms. From small-town Iowa to underground bases beneath D.C., this premiere episode offers laughs, truth bombs, and a refreshing take on what it means to awaken in 2025. No scripts, no filters, just Shipwreck.

David Grann's book, The Wager, is about an 18th century British warship that wrecked on an island after passing through the treacherous waters of Cape Horn. The castaways faced terrible conditions and starvation, and descended into chaos, including cannibalism and mutiny. 81 sailors escaped the island on a makeshift boat, and sailed nearly 3000 miles to Brazil. Only 29 survived. Grann is also the author of Killers of the Flower Moon.

Send us a textCould you survive being stranded on a lifeboat in the middle of the Pacific Ocean with a Bengal tiger? This week, we tackle the extraordinary survival tale portrayed in Life of Pi, diving deep into the psychological elements that make this story both captivating and profoundly insightful.The conversation kicks off with a fascinating discussion about Pi's father's brutal but necessary lesson about respecting wild animals – a moment that undoubtedly saved Pi's life later. We examine the terrifying shipwreck scene, questioning whether anyone could truly survive such catastrophic conditions and the psychological impact of witnessing a massive vessel sink into nothingness.Our hosts debate one of the central themes from the film: "Survival is about adaptation, not dominance." While TJ argues that Pi did establish dominance over Richard Parker at key moments, Alex and Eric consider whether their mutual adaptation was what truly allowed both man and beast to survive. This leads to rich insights about how flexibility and resourcefulness often trump brute force in survival scenarios.The discussion takes a particularly compelling turn when exploring isolation and psychological endurance. Pi explicitly states that it was his relationship with Richard Parker – the need to care for the tiger and the companionship this responsibility provided – that kept him alive. This raises the provocative question: in extreme survival situations, could loneliness be as deadly as hunger?We wrap up by examining the dual narratives presented at the end of Pi's story and what they suggest about truth, perception, and the stories we construct to process trauma. Whether you believe the version with animals or the darker human alternative, this conversation will challenge your thinking about what it truly takes to survive against impossible odds.Join us for this thought-provoking episode that blends survival tactics with philosophical reflection. And remember – in survival, sometimes your greatest asset isn't what you have, but how you think.

Preaching Conference - Thursday

The SS Princess Alice is one of the most heartbreaking shipwrecks in history, and it doesn't get nearly the attention it deserves. In 1878, this passenger paddle steamer was cruising along the Thames in London when it collided with a larger ship, the Bywell Castle, breaking apart in minutes. Tragically, over 600 people died, many because the water was heavily polluted with raw sewage, making survival almost impossible. Families out for a pleasant evening were suddenly caught in a horrifying disaster that devastated the city. The tragedy led to public outrage, prompting improvements in river safety and pollution control. Though less famous than the Titanic, the story of the Princess Alice is just as haunting and important to remember.

The American sailing vessel Adriatic collided with the French steamship Le Lyonnais on November 2, 1856, off the coast of Nantucket in what can best be described as a maritime hitand-run. Adriatic's captain, Jonathan Durham, rendered no aid and left the passenger steamship to fend for herself. 114 people died in the collision and in the days that followed. In August of 2024, Jennifer Sellitti, her partner Joe Mazraani, and a team of explorers discovered, dived, and identified the wreckage of Lyonnais on the eastern edges of Georges Bank. The book includes an epilogue that chronicles what it takes to chase shipwrecks far from shore in the often-punishing North Atlantic, the search for and discovery of Le Lyonnais, and how it changed their lives. Author of "The Adriatic Affair: A Maritime Hit and Run off the Coast of Nantucket" and part of the team that discovered the wreck of Le Lyonnais, Jennifer Sellitti joins me as my guest.

Join hosts Schnebly and Toth in this episode of Shallow End, where they take a deep dive into the turbulent waters of online idiocy and historical misfortune. We got an email suggesting we revisit the topic of ill-conceived stunts, and since we already covered it in a previous episode, why not do it again? It's like recycling, but with more facepalms. Get ready to laugh, cringe, and possibly question the future of humanity as Schnebly and Toth run through the best of viral Internet challenges that were definitely thought through… said no one ever. From the "Tide Pod Challenge" (because eating laundry detergent is the new gourmet) to the "Fire Challenge" (because who doesn't want to set themselves on fire for internet fame?), these stunts were guaranteed to go wrong—and spoiler alert: they did. So buckle up and prepare for a cringe-fest of epic proportions. But wait, there's more! Schnebly and Toth also dig into the tragically ironic fate of Captain John Kendrick. A once-renowned sea captain who somehow managed to turn every ounce of hubris into a series of horrible decisions. Get ready for a tale of twists, turns, and an unexpected plunge into historical calamity that will make you appreciate your own decision not to sail into the unknown with zero foresight. So, leave your dignity behind and dive into this mess of an episode with Schnebly and Toth. Whether you're into facepalm-worthy internet stunts or you love a good, old-fashioned historical flop, this one's got it all—and it's wrapped in a nice layer of sarcasm and irreverence.

Remember Jake the Alligator Man? Turns out his bizarre backstory might be tangled up with one of San Francisco's most mysterious landmarks — The Cliff House. In this episode, we dig into the cursed history of this seaside icon: from explosive shipwrecks and devastating fires to ghostly apparitions, secret tunnels, and maybe even a mummy curse (?!).We'll explore how The Cliff House rose, burned, rose again (multiple times) and how the Land's End area had everything from seedy roadhouses to Victorian castles, extravagant bathhouses, amusement parks, taxidermied sea lions, forgotten cemeteries, and yes — Egyptian artifacts. We dive into the tale of Adolph Sutro, his cliffside empire, the ruins of Sutro Baths, and the eerie hauntings that still chill this foggy coastline.Is the area cursed by misplaced relics? Haunted by forgotten souls? Or just steeped in really bad luck? If you love lost history, ghost stories, and a healthy dose of weird… this one's for you.Visit our website!

The Princess Sophia was a Canadian passenger steamship that tragically sank on October 25, 1918, after striking Vanderbilt Reef in Lynn Canal near Juneau, Alaska. Caught in a severe snowstorm with strong winds and poor visibility, the ship ran aground and was unable to be evacuated due to worsening weather. Despite rescue ships waiting nearby, conditions prevented any safe transfer of passengers. When the storm intensified, the Princess Sophia broke apart and sank, killing all 353 people on board, making it the worst maritime disaster in the history of the Pacific Northwest.

After some current events about dire wolves, dire outbreaks of measles, and dire science denial in the White House, we discuss some true (and some not-so-true) tales of people surviving dire circumstances. People have come back alive from the frigid ice of Antarctica, a shipwreck on the bottom of the sea, and the deep jungles of South America. Others have claimed to have survived well-known disasters but been found out as frauds. And still another category intrigues us . . . survivors that never were. In fairy tales from 500 years ago and in earthquakes today, sometimes we humans have a deep psychological need to find hope in the face of disaster and believe that a small child has somehow miraculously survived.

Originally posted on Patreon on July 14, 2023.  "In this episode, we discuss the archaeological and scientific work that has been done at the RMS Titanic wreck site, from its discovery in 1985 to the more recent and unfortunate expedition undertaken by OceanGate. We strive to remain sensitive and respectful, while also giving the most up-to-date and factual information about these expeditions."

In 1679, a wooden ship named The Griffon sailed into Lake Michigan—and vanished without a trace. Built by French explorer René-Robert Cavelier, Sieur de La Salle, the Griffon was the first European-style ship to sail the upper Great Lakes. She was loaded with furs and promise... but she never came back. In this episode of End of the Road in Michigan, Michael Hardy explores one of the oldest mysteries in North America. We trace the Griffon's journey, the legends surrounding her disappearance, and the many failed attempts to find her remains. Was it mutiny? A storm? Or something deeper that pulled her under?This is the story of a ship that opened the Great Lakes—and then disappeared into them.

On October 28, 2015, a boat meant for only a few dozen passengers capsized off the coast of Greece. Hundreds of refugees, forced in desperation onto the overloaded boat manned by armed smugglers, were tossed into the sea. The resulting loss of life, the largest in a single day during the crisis in the Aegean, shocked the world.After nearly a decade of research, interviews, and investigation, reporter Jeanne Carstensen has looked to capture every detail of the dramatic twenty-four hours. Her new book is: "A Greek Tragedy: One Day, A Deadly Shipwreck, And the Human Cost of The Refugee Crisis."

Episode 899 is wild! And we think it bodes well for the 900s coming up. We start with a crazy thread online about whether one could hypothetically read braille with their clitoris (shoutout to the Vagina Museum), and we learn the insane reason doctors miscounted the number of nerve-endings in them. Susie discusses the latest shocking death penalty execution because the prisoner chose death by firing squad, and we learn the protocol for the process (it's so disturbing!). A teen in India had a parasitic twin removed from his abdomen, and the twin had fully developed genitalia, buttocks, and legs and could feel pain, but couldn't live outside of the other twin's abdomen. Sarah and Susie discover they both have an anatomical anomaly on their body, and let's just say it is on their bums. We learn about a shipwreck that dumped tons of Legos into the ocean and the people who seek the pieces on the world's beaches. We discuss an expensive legal battle happening in the Hamptons over a $25 gift card, and it's just as petty as it sounds. And Susie explains how doctors are using teeth to cure blindness.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:Visit https://www.carawayhome.com/BRAINCANDY and you can take an additional 10% off your next purchase.Control Body Odor ANYWHERE with @lumedeodorant and get 15% off with promo code BRAINCANDY15 at https://lumedeodorant.com #lumepodSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
