Episode description

Welcome to Unsinkable, a new bi-monthly podcast about Titanic hosted by me, L.A. Beadles, a writer and historian who has been obsessed with the ship since I was 13 years old. I'm a podcast novice, so please forgive any audio hiccups in this first foray! 

In the introductory episode, I attempt to set the tone for the pod by sharing some survivor accounts, outlining how I conceptualize the cultural history of the sinking, and laying out some  of the topics I'd like to cover.  I try, albeit with a bit of rambling and probably way too many mentions of James Cameron, to express my absolute awe at the incalculable humanity in the stories of the sinking and how they continue to reveal themselves.

Feedback is essential and I want to interact with the broader Titanic community. Please reach out with ideas, critiques, stories, anything. If you'd like to come on the pod, let's discuss that too. Let me know in your email if you're comfortable with it being read on air!
