{Originally uploaded on the anniversary of the Titanic sinking, April 15th, but due to technical difficulties was reuploaded on the 17th}
In this episode, we cover enough topics to make your head spin in penance for our hiatus. From unsinkable ships (spoiler alert, it sinks!) to respectable heroines to cursed mummies to haunted houses, this episode is sure to please. Ara describes her recent visit to the Titanic Museum in Belfast, Northern Ireland and how informative and fascinating it was. While the Titanic is our main overarching theme, we encompass and incorporate three more that are just as closely tied. Listen to us vividly recount and gush over James Cameron's Titanic movie, praise the heroic efforts of rescuers, and discuss class hierarchies and how the Titanic is an apt metaphor for the social, economic, and political landscape of contemporary America. Stick around at the end for our infamous bloopers (a whole year's worth of antics in this one!).
