Welcome to Crawlspace. In this episode Tim Pilleri & Lance Reenstierna speak with Daniel Stone about his new book, Sinkable.

In Sinkable, Daniel spins a fascinating tale of history, science, and obsession, uncovering the untold story of the Titanic not as a ship but as a shipwreck. He explores generations of eccentrics, like American Charles Smith, whose 1914 recovery plan using a synchronized armada of ships bearing electromagnets was complex, convincing, and utterly impossible; Jack Grimm, a Texas oil magnate who fruitlessly dropped a fortune to find the wreck after failing to find Noah’s Ark; and the British Doug Woolley, a former pantyhose factory worker who has claimed, since the 1960s, to be the true owner of the Titanic wreckage.

Daniel is a national bestselling writer on science, history, and adventure. He's a senior editor for National Geographic and a former White House Correspondent for Newsweek. He's a professor of environmental science at Johns Hopkins University.
