The Weirding Hour

47 - Maritime Archaeology


Listen Later

Dive with us into this week's topic of maritime archaeology where we paint and somehow manage to chat about heart removal, death by lampreys and, most shocking of all, an actual shipwreck.

(We apologise for the slightly wonky sound on this episode - we're working on it!)
