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.

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."

In June 1909, disaster struck at the Canadian Soo Locks in Sault Ste. Marie when a massive lock gate failure sent four ships into chaos—two sank, and the Great Lakes shipping system ground to a halt.In this episode, we recount the worst lock accident in Great Lakes history, detailing how it happened, its cascading impact on shipping and industry, and how it forever changed maritime infrastructure. If you've never heard of the "day the locks broke," you're not alone. But this forgotten event still echoes in today's supply chain concerns.If you want to read the rest of this story check out.

Beneath the waters of Michigan's Thumb lie hundreds of shipwrecks—silent remains of steamers, barges, and schooners that met their end in Lake Huron.In this episode, we share the gripping stories of five lost vessels, from deadly collisions to ghost ship mysteries.

In this episode of End of the Road in Michigan,  we recount the harrowing collision between the passenger steamer City of Cleveland III and the freighter Ravnefjeel off the coast of Harbor Beach in 1950.Through survivor accounts, local headlines, and historical context, we revisit a deadly fog-shrouded morning that left three dead, one missing, and a community in mourning. This little-remembered incident offers a sobering look at how quickly disaster can unfold on the Great Lakes—and how the echoes of that day still reach us 75 years later.

Jill and Robert discuss wreck diving at Truk Lagoon and Robert's death defying battle with a persistent upper respiratory infection! 

Narrator: Chloe De Burgh

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.

The San Jose was a marvel of 17th century technology. The Spanish galleon weighed more than a thousand tons, was made of wood reinforced with iron, and featured three masts and 64 cannons. In its cargo were gold, silver, silk and porcelain. But in 1708, it sank after a battle with an English ship near what is now Colombia.For centuries, the shipwreck was the stuff of legends, until 2015 when underwater investigators found what they believed to be the San Jose's wreckage. The treasure on board this ship could be worth billions of dollars. But who owns it? Today on the show, four groups stake their claims to the wreck of the San Jose. Those claims reveal a lot about who has a say over the bottom of the sea and how we can begin to untangle the complicated legacy of colonialism.This episode of Planet Money was hosted by Erika Beras and Mary Childs.
