Podcasts about shipwrecks

The Morro Castle shipwreck of 1934 was a tragic maritime disaster involving a luxury passenger liner operated by the Ward Line. On September 8, 1934, while en route from Havana to New York, the ship caught fire off the coast of New Jersey near Asbury Park, resulting in the deaths of 137 passengers and crew. The fire, which was later suspected to be an act of arson, spread rapidly due to strong winds and flammable materials onboard, forcing many to jump into rough seas. The burning vessel eventually ran aground on the beach, becoming a chilling symbol of maritime safety failures. The disaster led to sweeping changes in U.S. maritime safety regulations.

The cang catch-up on a bunch of TV and movies, discuss AI game creation, and ponder how Xbox can be a failure, yet Game Pass is ruining the industry. What kind of God would allow that?

In this unfiltered episode, Shipwreck lets loose on everything from the Epstein files debacle to the explosion of EBT “haul” videos flaunting taxpayer-funded shopping sprees. She opens with raw frustration over Trump's dismissive response to Epstein questions and Pam Bondi's contradictory statements about evidence and sealed records, challenging listeners to stop gaslighting themselves about obvious corruption. Shifting gears, Shipwreck launches a blistering takedown of social media influencers proudly showing off carts loaded with junk food, luxury groceries, and birthday cakes bought with benefits while claiming to be struggling. She calls out the entitlement culture that normalizes dependence as virtue and proposes a “peer review board” where applicants would justify their aid to taxpayers directly. Ranting against corporate profiteering, like Amazon and Costco raking in billions from EBT purchases, she underscores how the middle class is quietly funding a system that incentivizes generational welfare. With humor, expletives, and a dose of Midwestern tough love, she insists it's possible to support safety nets without enabling abuse. This fiery episode is part catharsis, part call to accountability, and an unapologetic defense of common sense.

In 2025, a team of eight students, scientists, and engineers from the University of Rhode Island conducted the first survey of known shipwrecks in the Lake Ontario National Marine Sanctuary. Using URI's new, state-of-the-art remotely operated vehicle, named “Rhody”, the student-led team documented 17 shipwrecks. Having embarked from Oswego, New York, aboard the research vessel Lake Guardian, which is owned and operated by the Environmental Protection Agency, the team discovered several new shipwrecks while mapping the lakebed. Jason Fahy and Holly Pettus from the University of Rhode Island are my guests.

We discuss the refugee influx to East Florida and the Shipwrecks involving loyalists fleeing to St Augustine in the 1782-83 time period.

Paul is shipwrecked

Paul is shipwrecked

In this no-holds-barred episode, Shipwreck unpacks the chaos surrounding Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, sharing skepticism over its AI provisions and the endless culture war it fuels. She dives into viral claims that migrants are being dumped into the ocean from cargo planes, a conspiracy she methodically dismantles while pointing out the absurdity of the rumor mill. From the real story behind “Alligator Alcatraz,” Florida's new migrant facility, to Kristi Noem's claim that a deportee started eating himself mid-flight, the episode is equal parts darkly hilarious and unsettling. Shipwreck also tackles the meltdown over Nancy Mace livestreaming in her pajamas, her personal burnout with performative compassion, and why defending bad behavior “on your own side” only feeds the cult mentality. Ranting about DUIs, predators using trans activism as cover, and the collapse of basic decency online, she ends by reflecting on whether humanity is even worth saving. With tangents about Kathy Griffin looking like Pennywise, the sewage pouring across the southern border, and the illusion of positive social media, this is Shipwreck at her raw, unscripted best.

A fur-trading schooner beached in 1811. A passenger liner lost in 1906. An almost-empty tanker broken on the shore in 1999. These shipwrecks, and thousands more, are why the northwest coast of North America is sometimes called the “Graveyard of the Pacific.” Drawing from his book, Wrecked, history professor and author Coll Thrush tells the stories of many vessels that met their fate along this rugged coast and how they open up conversations about colonialism, Indigenous persistence, and place-based history. Shipwrecks are commemorated in museums, historical markers, folklore, place names, and the remains of the ships themselves. They've become a rich regional archive that has inspired Indigenous and settler survivors and observers to create meaning for these events. Thrush examines the ways in which shipwreck tales highlight––and debunk––myths of settler colonialism: the disappearance of Indigenous people, the control of an endlessly abundant nature, and the idea that the past would stay past. There's no doubt that shipwrecks capture our imagination. Thrush also shows that these disasters are passageways to deeper stories. Through a cultural history of this notorious part of the Northwest, Thrush demonstrates how the tales of shipwrecks reveal the fraught and unfinished business of colonization. Coll Thrush is a professor of history at the University of British Columbia and founding co-editor of the Indigenous Confluences book series at the University of Washington Press. He is the author previously of Native Seattle: Histories from the Crossing-Over Place and Indigenous London: Native Travelers at the Heart of Empire. Joshua L. Reid (citizen of the Snohomish Indian Nation) is an associate professor of American Indian Studies and the John Calhoun Smith Memorial Endowed Associate Professor of History at the University of Washington, where he directs the Center for the Study of the Pacific Northwest. He is the author of The Sea Is My Country: The Maritime World of the Makahs. Presented by Town Hall Seattle and University of Washington Press.

In 1873, off the coast of a small village in Nova Scotia, the SS Atlantic was pulled off course by the tides of the Bay of Fundy and it crashed headlong into the rocks. 1,000 people were on board. Fast forward to the 21st Century, when Lynette Richards, author and artist - and super sleuth  - moved to this little coastal village, called Lower Prospect, and discovered the mass graves of 500 lives who perished in the wreck. This led Lynette on a years-long journey that rescued lives and stories that are now living in Lynette's graphic novel, Call Me Bill. Have a listen as our host, Kathleen Barker, talks with Lynette about the mysteries and injustices that have been discovered and corrected in Lower Prospect and beyond!CLICK HERE to learn how History UnErased is putting LGBTQ history in its rightful place - the classroom.

A bill would free overtime pay from taxes. However, truckers – who don't get overtime – are not included. Another bill would change that. Also, a man survived one of the worst shipwrecks on the Great Lakes – and a trucker told his tale. We'll tell you about the S.S. Daniel J. Morrell. And late in 2024, two Iowa DOT workers stepped up to help a trucker in a bad situation. If they had not, the trucker might not have made it. 0:00 – Effort would give truckers overtime pay – and qualify them for more 10:12 – Trucker tells the story of sole survivor of shipwreck 39:16 – Iowa DOT workers step up to help trucker in need

In this fiery and unfiltered episode, Shipwreck tackles the geopolitical firestorm surrounding Trump's precision strikes in Iran and the narrative whiplash that followed. From initial panic to the calm aftermath, she calls out the fear porn driving division on both sides, questioning the reactionary responses from figures like Candace Owens and Thomas Massie. With her signature sarcasm and straight talk, Shipwreck dissects Trump's nuanced handling of Israel, Iran, and NATO, suggesting strategic restraint and diplomatic leverage over regime change and war. The episode takes a sharp turn into cultural psyops, as she revisits the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr., raising questions about historical narrative control and CIA influence. Wrapping it all in wit and realism, Shipwreck challenges listeners to break their own indoctrination, think critically, and stop defending a broken system. It's a rant-filled ride full of laughs, lightning storms, and diaper-wearing dogs, with a big middle finger to media manipulation and performative patriotism.

The Mary Rose was a warship of the Tudor era of the English monarchy, built in 1510 during the reign of King Henry VIII. The hulking ship was the king's favorite for many years, until it inexplicably sank in Portsmouth Harbour in 1545 as it sailed out to meet the invading French fleet. Over 400 years later, the Mary Rose was raised and its artifacts preserved. My guest is author and historian Richard M. Jones. Written, edited, and produced by Rich Napolitano.

Can we tell the history of the world through its shipwrecks? In this episode of Back Stories, Elyssa from the Johnson County Public Library in Indiana is joined by David Pfeiffer from the Johnson County Museum of History to explore this concept through two books: The Demon of Unrest by Erik Larson and A History of the World in Twelve Shipwrecks byDavid Gibbins.

After the gang catches up on the latest movies and TV, Shipwreck reviews the Nintendo Switch 2, Wombat reports on the Xbox Games Showcase, and Cheapy laments the reactionary nature of the game industry.

In this fiery and unfiltered episode of The Shipwreck Show, host Shipwreck dives into the viral Tucker Carlson interview with Senator Ted Cruz, breaking down every awkward stumble and eyebrow-raising moment. From Cruz's fumbling defense of Israel and claims about biblical justification, to his shaky stance on regime change in Iran, Shipwreck holds nothing back. She questions the foreign policy obsession with Israel, the lobbying power of AIPAC, and the bizarre theological arguments used to justify war. Plus, she shares a powerful personal monologue about faith, purpose, and the propaganda fueling modern politics. The episode ends with a true crime twist: the stunning not-guilty verdict in the Karen Read case and the corrupt web behind it. Brutal honesty, biting humor, and zero tolerance for BS, this one's a wild ride.

Listener Appreciation Week, Day 3During World War 2, the Germans captured several Dutch submarines, which included an experimental air venting device. The Germans put this to use, and used it on board some of their own U-boats. This led to the creation of a high-pressure, deepwater toilet waste system, and things did not quite go as planned.
