Witness Titanic

Last episode, Alexander Carlisle introduced us to the 1911 Shipping Advisory Committee and his opposition to their lifeboat recommendations. Sir Norman Hill was also on that committee and has requested the opportunity to testify in this episode. According to Hill, we've been lied to.

To understand Titanic, you have to meet the people for whom she was built — and we mean ALL the people, not just the first-class men. Today on Witness Titanic, we call a witness with almost no Titanic knowledge to offer! Instead she introduces us to the astounding women of the Progressive Era who will one day fight for — and WIN — the right to vote in America... they just have to make it to America first...

We dedicate this episode to you, "oh sorrowing women of the disaster."

WITNESS TITANIC IS TWO YEARS OLD!!! And your Chairman is another year older as well... To celebrate the occasion, we are joined by my partner, the TERRIBLY funny, Katie Johantgen! Katie would not be considered a Titanic nut - far from it - but she has agreed to endure a game of Titanic trivia featuring questions sent in by the Witness Titanic Patrons!

Let us know how many points YOU got!

NOTICE:
Podcast listeners, you won't be able to see Katie's final score, so I will hide it at the bottom of this description to avoid any spoilers!
Message Katie on Instagram @katiejoyofosho to find your best colors!

A TITANIC 'thank you" to everyone who supports this podcast and a happy podcast birthday to YOU.
