  • The OceanGate Titanic Submersible Tragedy

    The search for a missing OceanGate submersible ended in tragedy when all five passengers were declared dead from a catastrophic implosion. Many questions are being asked about what happened to the vessel, the experimental materials used to construct it, and why the CEO chose to avoid warnings from industry leaders in deep-sea exploration. 

    We discuss the bizarre tweets Hamish Harding’s stepson sent to Blink 182, the familial connection Stockton Rush’s wife has to Titanic passengers, and we also read an email we received from a former OceanGate employee.

  • History of Barbie

    Did you know Barbie’s original design was based on a 1952 German comic-strip featuring a sassy high-class escort called Bild Lilli? It took Ruth Handler, the co-creator of Barbie, years to convince her male colleagues that Barbie would be a hit. She has come a long way since then. She’s an astronaut, a doctor, a teacher, has ran for president multiple times, and owns over 40 pets. Unfortunately, Mattel has made many missteps over the years trying to modernize Barbie, as well as Ruth getting in trouble for financial fraud.
