Bonus | The OceanGate Titan Disaster Explodasode of 2023

from Doomsday: History's Most Dangerous Podcast · host Brad Choma

With apologies for the absense of new material, I'm a bit under it and overwhelmed - not much unlike the passengers of the OceanGate Titan Submersible just under a year ago! This is a piece of bonus content which I described as "a somewhat rushed minisode that once again turned out to be not so mini". It was based on the best evidence and understanding of events that was available at the time. I think I can safely say no much has changed since then, so I stand by it. I also stand by some substantially backed-up billionaire bashing.I did my best to cut through the social media clutter and applied my own math as best I could - but the fact about this disaster is it is unprescidented. We're talking about physics and hydrodynamics at levels we have zero experience with, and no real way to test, or reason to try. So many things had to go wrong for this to happen, and I will happily singing-telegram-style deliver the blame directly to Stockton Rush's door.In this new episode, you will learn:•  Just how fascinatingly irresponsible Stockton Rush was•  Why making fun of dead billionaires is good for you•  Exactly how unbelievably nightmarish the last trip of the Titan wasThere will be math and science and gelatinous goo, all for you my loyal listeners.––––– THANK YOU. Most shows survive at the whim of production companies and corporate sponsors, built from the top down. Doomsday doesn’t exist because some network exec believes in it – it exists because actual people do. It's built from the bottom up, and it’s been my privilege to bring you these stories. Just you, me, and a microphone. I don’t do this for you, so much as I do this because of you.
