The Tip of the Iceberg

What if the crew of the Titanic knew about the iceberg - and did nothing? Finally - finally! We can talk about the book. In it, Lightoller makes some very big and explosive claims. So big, he wrote them in italics! And so explosive, his book was pulled from the shelves and pulped. What could he have written that could be so damaging to the Titanic story and her crew?

Everything's a Conspiracy

Did Titanic Sink? Season 2 - Coming Soon!

New evidence leads Carlo and Tim back to Titanic as they discover a secret local connection, hidden for decades in a small South Island town. A year has passed since the award-winning first season of the podcast and Carlo and Tim have been commissioned by RNZ to undertake another investigation. According to the broadcasters' top brass, the Titanic has "obviously" been done to completion and they have instead tasked the pair to investigate a local mystery; the legendary Canterbury Cat - a possible panther roaming the flat plains of the South Island. Carlo and Tim happily take the assignment (and the production budget), assuring RNZ they’ll deliver a compelling season on this fantastic beast. But what if everything they told RNZ was a lie? Tim: To quote a film the name of which I no longer remember “Are you ready to go back to Titanic?” A secret hidden book? A mysterious local legend about a giant cat? What has all this got to do with the most shipwreck of all time? When then rubber hits the road - or the ship hits the iceberg - what can you really believe? This is Did Titanic Sink? Season 2! The full story of this fiasco will be released on July 15 2024. Go to this episode on rnz.co.nz for more details

I absolutely love this podcast. I’ve learned so much about the Titanic (or maybe the Olympic???) and it’s made me both laugh and cry. Also I discovered that I really need Rose Matafeo to become a common audiobook narrator because she’s got the best voice.

I love history and comedy podcasts. This is the perfect blend, with a touch of absurdity.
A must listen!

An absolute gem of a podcast. Funny, well-researched, empathetic and just a little bit absurd. There are moments in this series that made me laugh uproariously and others that brought actual tears to my eyes. Highly highly recommended.
