Titanic S2 E6
from Strange Things with Chris James · host Chris James
The Titanic hit an ice berg and sunk on April 15, 1912. Or did it. Was the ship replaced by the Olympic, the sister ship that had been involved in a nasty collision and was now uninsurable?

Here is what I could find, digging and searching for what I think is the truth.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/strange-things-with-chris-james--4931876/support.
