But what exactly did the passengers and crew eat on board this legendary ship? What do the menus tell us about the cuisine of this period? What made dining on board the Titanic unique? And how does produce play a role in this unforgettable story?Join John and Patrick as they explore one of the most famous ships in history with a special guest: Titanic-culinary expert and author, Veronica Hinke.

Join me as I take a look at the life of Charles Joughin, known in pop culture as "Titanic's Drunk Baker." It wouldn't be Unsinkable without a title myth-busting, would it? There's actually a LOT of myth-busting here. I examine his testimony about the events of the night of the sinking, recount the hardships and successes of his eventful life at sea, and question whether the alcohol in his system (which probably wasn't even that much, spoiler alert) did or didn't help him survive in the icy waters that night.For more on the food, drink, and food WORKERS aboard Titanic, see Veronica Hinke's The Last Night on the Titanic, available here: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-last-night-on-the-titanic-veronica-hinke/1130204164Find me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unsinkablepod/Support the showSupport Unsinkable on Patreon: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/unsinkable-the-titanic-podcast/id1585578882Find me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unsinkablepod/Shoot me an email if you like: UnsinkablePod@gmail.com

In These Uncertain dDays, Inspiring Stories from the Titanicby Veronica Hinke A video of violinists wearing life jackets in the toilet paper aisle of a grocery store went viral on St. Patrick’s Day. As disheartening as it is that a parody was made out of the incredible story of the men who performed on deck of the Titanic as she sunk on April 14, 1912, the video, which has been watched by millions now, is still a sharp reminder to us of the many courageous people who stayed strong in the face of uncertainty. In the case of the Titanic band, survivors said that the band played Autumn, Lead Kindly Light and more for as long as they could. “We’re just going to play a little bit to lift people’s spirits,” Titanic First Violinist John (“Jock”) Hume said to his friend Stewardess Violet Jessop – with his violin in tow – as he bumped into her in his scuttle up the narrow stairwell to the boat deck where he was to meet his fellow bandmates. Nine weeks after the sinking, second class passenger Lawrence Beesley published his account of that last night aboard the Titanic. It was titled The Loss of the S.S. Titanic. Beesley recalled: “Many brave things were done that night, but none were more brave than those done by men playing minute after minute as the ship settled quietly lower and lower in the sea. The music they played served alike as their own immortal requiem and their right to be recalled on the scrolls of undying fame.” Their story still resonates loudly. Three years ago, the violin that band master Wallace Hartley was playing that night sold at auction for $1.7 million dollars. When I wrote The Last Night on The Titanic (Regnery, 2019) – fumbling between the sudden, unexplained death of my 74-year-old mother and my own surgeries and treatments for triple negative breast cancer – my motivation to keep going was to further the stories of so many brave people. Mr. Rogers said his mother told him: “Fred, in times of trouble, look for the helpers; there will always be helpers.” Aboard the Titanic, the helpers rose up out of unimaginable circumstances. Their stories are powerful lessons for us during these uncertain days, and always. Margaret (“Molly”) Brown In the Titanic lifeboats and even in years after the disaster, one of the most remarkable of the helpers was Margaret (“Molly”) Brown. In August 1987, about 453 miles south of Newfoundland, a diver found a gold nugget necklace. Some believe the necklace belonged to Molly. She was a first class Titanic passenger with a rags-to-riches story. As a little girl growing up in Hannibal, Missouri, Molly helped support her family by stripping tobacco leaves. Her father was an Irish immigrant ditch digger, and Molly married a man who worked in the silver mines. He struck gold shortly into their marriage, making them incredibly wealthy overnight, however Molly always said: “I’d rather marry a poor man that I love than a rich man that I didn’t.” At the storied Brown Palace Hotel in Denver, Molly is still known for having “a heart as big as a ham,” which is how she was described in one of the movies that told about her life. For many years, she handed out Christmas gifts, in person, to every housemaid, bellman, doorman and server at the hotel, where she stayed and held press conferences after she survived the Titanic. Margaret even got the Brown Palace Hotel staff a little Christmas tree for the front desk. She held fundraisers there for some of the causes she helped with, including Catholic Charities and the Dumb Friends League, a non-profit animal shelter and humane society. In 1900, she and Benjamin Guggenheim, who was also aboard the Titanic, provided a full holiday banquet at the hotel for 1,500 of Denver’s less fortunate. In Titanic lifeboat 6, Molly persisted in her care for others. There was tension between Molly and Titanic quartermaster Robert Hichens. Hichens was steering the ship when it hit the iceberg, and Molly would later identify him as a “bully” in the lifeboat. They fought over his reluctancy to pick up more passengers. However, she kept her focus while in the lifeboat, and managed to help women stay warm by encouraging them to row. Once finally aboard the rescue ship Carpathia, Margaret distributed food, handed out cups of drinks, and passed out blanket after blanket. While still on board, she organized a fund drive for those who would be most in need when they reached New York City. The Survivor’s Committee raised nearly $10,000. Today, this would be worth almost $250,000. Unable to testify in the U.S. Senate hearings, because she was a woman, she persisted in doing whatever she could. She helped establish the Titanic Memorial in Washington, D.C. and galvanized others in the fight for workers’ rights, women’s rights and education. She worked to start the first juvenile court and helped organize the National American Women’s Suffrage Association. Even before the Nineteenth Amendment, Margaret ran for office— for a seat in the Colorado state Senate in 1901, and in 1914, two years after surviving the Titanic, for a seat in the U.S. Senate. Margaret organized an international women’s rights conference in Newport, Rhode Island in 1914 and started a support branch for relief for soldiers in France during WWI. She persisted in benevolent work until her death from an aneurism in the Barbizon Hotel in New York City in October 1932. Charles Joughin In movies about the Titanic, head baker Charles Joughin is depicted as drinking heavily during the sinking. In the James Cameron movie, Charles holds onto the railing with one hand and takes a swig from his flask with the other. Weeks after the Titanic sank, Joughin told British inquiry officials that, at one point, he went down to his bunk to “have a nip.” He also told them what happened beforehand. After he led his crew in stocking the lifeboats with loaves of bread, Charles went up to the boat deck and assisted with loading lifeboats. Having worked on ships since he was a little boy, he knew his disaster checklist well. On the Thursday before the disaster, right after he boarded, he noted his lifeboat assignment for the trip. Lifeboat 10. But after he helped fill up his assigned lifeboat someone else was assigned to board it as crew and row it. Even though this was Charles’ job to do, he was not given the direction to board. When he realized that he would not have a spot in a lifeboat, he went down to his bunk for a nip. But afterward, Charles came back up to the boat deck, and he noticed the deck chairs. The heavy wooden chairs might be enough to hold people up, he thought. He threw as many as he could of the enormously heavy chairs up high and into the ocean – far enough away from the ship to hopefully avoid the suction that would occur when she went completely under. Charles threw many so there might be enough for everyone. He used strength that he knew he would likely need later in the water. Through a string of miracles, Charles survived the sinking of the Titanic. Back at home, he continued to consider the needs of others. He rarely talked about the Titanic, and when he did, he turned his story into a whimsical tale to shield the children – for whom he relished in making Christening cakes, chocolate eclairs and more – from the reality of his experiences. “I knew it was an iceberg,” he told the children, “because I saw a polar bear, and he waved at me.” Charles went back to life at sea, the only life he’d ever known, and even survived another historic maritime accident: He was the baker aboard the SS Congress when it caught fire in Coos Bay, Oregon, on Thursday, September 14, 1916. Charles lived until 1956 in Paterson, New Jersey. Edith Rosenbaum Russell Edith Rosenbaum Russell was traveling aboard the Titanic in first class on her way to New York City from Paris. Thirty-three and as fit as a gazelle, Edith was one of the most fabulously glamorous women in the world, and she covered all the latest fashion news for Women’s Wear Daily. Beautiful, stunning Edith was the inspiration to young girls everywhere with her career as fashion buyer for some of the most stylish stores in the United States. Edith had just completed the coveted assignment of reporting the Easter Sunday fashions in Paris. Edith’s father was an incredibly wealthy man who ran department stores, where people bought capes, cloaks and coats, (some made from seal hide), cheviot suit jackets and more. A few months before the Titanic, in August 1911, Edith had only narrowly escaped death in a horrific automobile accident near Rouen, France. “I’m accident prone,” she quipped. “I’ve been in shipwrecks, car crashes, fires, floods, and tornadoes. I’ve had every disaster but bubonic plague and a husband.” On April 14, here she was again, facing the possibility of death. When she climbed into Titanic lifeboat 11, she left 19 trunks back in her cabin. But she kept one thing with her: a music box in the shape of a pig. When you wound the pig’s tail, it played the song of the maxixe (a Brazilian dance tune). To reassure the children in her lifeboat, Edith wound and rewound the pig’s tail all night long, cold night – so dark that occasionally the tip of a rope was lit so passengers could see who was right next to them. Edith’s bravery in the iceberg-covered waters of the Atlantic in the wee hours of April 15, 1912 reminded me of Dina Babbitt’s selfless bravery at Auschwitz when she mustered enough strength to painstakingly decorate a wall with cheerful scenes of Disney’s Snow White. Dina survived Auschwitz, went on to work as an illustrator with Disney in California – and married co-worker Art Babbitt, the man who created Disney’s “Goofy.” Edith lived until April 4, 1975. When she passed away in London, her musical pig was still with her.

Later, the Dueling Critics, Kerry Reid and Jonathan Abarbanel, stop by (remotely) to talk about the latest streaming theatrical offerings. And a look-back at a conversation with author Veronica Hinke, who wrote a Titanic inspired cook book.
In Episode 2, I explore the idea of memorable moments in food, drink, travel and life. While creating this episode I had the opportunity to talk with two amazing women, Jane Lawrence and Veronica Hinke.I begin with my conversation with my sister, Jane Kenyon Lawrence . When you are a Kenyon, there is no shortage of memorable moments that involve food and drink. But to embellish that with a global perspective- years of traveling the world, you suddenly become privy to stories that are fantastic, romantic, and alluring, that demand to be told. I also had the good fortune to sit down with Chicago Tribune food writer Veronica Hinke to converse about ,not only her life covering the food and drink beat of Chicago, but also her recently released book, The Last Night On The Titanic… Unsinkable Drinking, Dining, and Style. Like a kid in a historical candy store,I will tell you, that taking in the stories and anecdotes surrounding that fateful voyage in 1912 was, without question, as enticing as one could imagine.So, enjoy this foray into Memorable Moments. To me, It is a pleasant reminder that of the joie de vivre that we all possess and how rich the narrative of our lives can be.

About Veronica Hinke Veronica Hinke has been researching the Titanic for as long as she can remember. She has interviewed hundreds of experts on lifestyles, foods, and drinks for Tribune Media and maintains close working relationships with leading chefs and mixologists around the world. Her report, “Titanic Cocktails,” appeared in Wine Enthusiast magazine, honoring the hundredth anniversary of the Titanic, and was blogged by the Village Voice. Ms. Hinke currently resides just outside of Chicago, Illinois. Why did you write your book "The Last Night on the Titanic: Unsinkable Drinking, Dining & Style"? “I really wanted to honor the 100th anniversary year of the sinking of the Titanic, which was in 2012. The anniversary year was in 2012 and so I spent pretty much the whole year prior, 2011, really researching to find a hook.” What do you hope readers will take away from reading your book? “I want people to be inspired by these people. Every story that I told had a purpose, kept me going, and it really kept me going through some of the darkest days in my life.” Is it a cookbook? What is a culinary narrative? “pretty much it's a narrative with some recipes sprinkled throughout. And I really curated those recipes to be purposeful where they were located. I strategically put them in spots.” Can you share with me your most successful or favorite networking story/experience that you’ve had? “I organized a party for the book, and I didn't want to just have a book party. I want to do something really special. And this was specifically for the press.” How do you stay in front of or best nurture your network community? “Social media really has helped. And as even though I mentioned earlier that it's so much nicer to get together in person, I think that's still important, but I'm a huge fan of Facebook and Instagram.” What advice do you have for the professional on growing their network? “Why not share your network? You know, I mean, some people might be concerned about duplication. Hey, if it's duplicated, they'll get the message twice or maybe three times. I think that's a lot less of a problem than someone being isolated from, you know, being able to work towards their goals.” Digital networking or traditional networking? “I love in person. It's my own personal preference. I would rather be sitting with you right now talking face to face obviously. But then, I love that this opportunity is there because of the technology.” If you could go back to your 20-year-old self, what would you tell yourself to do more or less of regarding your career? “Well, I would say I wouldn't change a thing. I'm so happy about what I did because that's the secret I think is you have to believe that. And I think the one thing I would say is make the most of every minute and still have that balance that you need to have to live a decent life. But I think the older you get, the more people you lose, and you start to realize the fragility of life and you think you have forever and you don't, you really don't. We’ve all heard of the 6 degrees of separation… Now, who would be the one person you’d love to connect with and do you think you could do it within the 6th degree? “Well, and I'm glad you mentioned someone that's no longer here because the person that I would love to sit down and have lunch with or have a cup of coffee with or tea is Julia Child.” What book are you reading right now? “right now, I'm reading a lovely little book and it's by John Steinbeck and it's Of Mice and Men.” Any final words of advice for our listeners? “one piece of advice I try to remember is that it takes 30 days to make a habit. And that's not that long, Lori. You know, it's like if you really stick your nose to the grindstone, you can come up with a new habit in 30 days and so think of a new habit that you would like to instill in your life and make it happen.” You can get in contact with Veronica at: LinkedIn: Click Here Instagram: Click Here Twitter: Click Here
Veronica Hinke discusses the fateful moments of "The Last Night on the Titanic" in her book which focuses on the dishes and dining room of that final, disastrous evening.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Fascination with The Titanic has not faded, though more than 105 years have passed since its tragic sinking when so many lives were lost, and an era of gilded glamor ended. Culinary historian, Veronica Hinke’s new book, The Last Night on the Titanic: Unsinkable Drinking, Dining, and Style(Regnery History, 2019) is a celebration of the ethos of The Titanic, using the food and drink served on board as a fulcrum of a broader exploration of this fascinating episode of maritime history, the intriguing characters who sailed on her, and the enduring legacy of the world’s most famous Transatlantic crossing. Hinke tells the stories of millionaires and pastry chefs, popcorn vendors, and perfume salesmen, all gathered aboard the gargantuan ship for its celebrated maiden voyage in 1912. Hinke’s meticulous research has captured not only the glamour of the First-Class dining room but also the harrowing moments as families are separated at the lifeboats. From menus stuffed into jacket pockets, and the archives of Gilded Age restaurants such as Delmonico’s and the St. Regis, Hinke has put together authentic recipes for many of the dishes served on the Titanic as well as the cocktails mixed at its elegant bars. Hinke’s passion for her material shines through this professionally researched, and thoroughly enjoyable exploration of Edwardian glamour and gastronomy on the high seas. Veronica Hinke is a culinary historian, food writer, and author. She is the co-host of History Unplugged’s miniseries on The Titanic.

Hinke’s meticulous research has captured not only the glamour of the First-Class dining room but also the harrowing moments as families are separated at the lifeboats. From menus stuffed into jacket pockets, and the archives of Gilded Age restaurants such as Delmonico’s and the St. Regis, Hinke has put together authentic recipes for many of the dishes served on the Titanic as well as the cocktails mixed at its elegant bars. Hinke’s passion for her material shines through this professionally researched, and thoroughly enjoyable exploration of Edwardian glamour and gastronomy on the high seas. Veronica Hinke is a culinary historian, food writer, and author. She is the co-host of History Unplugged’s miniseries on The Titanic.

On the night of April 14, 1912, in the last hours before the Titanic struck the iceberg, passengers in all classes were enjoying unprecedented luxuries. Innovations in food, drink, and decor made this voyage the apogee of Edwardian elegance.This episode is the first in a series I’m doing with Titanic historian Veronica Hinke called “Last Night on the Titanic.” In it we look at individual accounts of tragedy and survival from the figures that made up the passengers and crew of the ship. They include millionaires, artists, fashionistas, bakers, cookers, musicians, doctors, and con-men.To recreate the experience of what it was like to be on the Titanic before disaster was on anyone’s mind, Veronica also goes into detail of the food and drink consumer on the ship, from tripe soup eaten by a third-class passenger to the fancy dessert eaten by a Edwardian lady.
Introduction and overview of the series, which looks at the biographical backgrounds of the cast and crew members of the HMS Titanic. Hosted by Scott Rank and Veronica Hinke.
Veronica Hinke is a highly acclaimed food writer who has always loved sharing people's stories. Her first book, The Last Night on the Titanic: Unsinkable Drinking, Dining & Style poignantly features personal accounts of passengers along with the menus and recipes from this legendary ship. Veronica recently joined Chef Jaime Laurita and me in the Middleby Residential Showroom for a Kitchen Chat. As many of you know, April 15, 1912 is the day that The Titanic sank. My own personal "Titanic" occurred on April 15, 2003 when I lost my mother to her battle with leukemia. My mother was such an inspirational person who always showed such strength and grace in the most difficult of times. Veronica Hinke captures the resilience and the courage along with the memorable moments of celebration on this floating palace, known as The Titanic.
1001 Heroes launches a full series on the sinking of the Titanic beginning with an exclusive author interview with Veronica Hinke, whose new book "The Last Night On The Titanic" is already climbing the best seller lists. It was April 14th, 1912-exactly 107 years ago from the date of this release- and 2, 224 passengers and crew aboard the RMS Titanic were having the time of their lives, from the first class deck to steerage, enjoying the best of international cuisine on the most luxurious cruise ship ever built. When the celebration turned to panic- then horror-many were sure they would never see the morning sun. The stories of heroism, love, and the will to survive have become the stuff of legend. Keep an eye out for THE MYSTERIES OF THE TITANIC here at 1001 Heroes- coming next week, and watch Wednesday nights for THE LOSS OF THE RMS TITANIC by James Beasley- who survived the sinking and wrote a book giving his eyewitness account.
