What if Lightoller lied to the Titanic inquiries? What if Tim and Carlo are lying to RNZ?

The Tip of the Iceberg Jul 21, 2024

Show notes

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?

Show notes

He was a hero on the Titanic, he was a hero at Dunkirk. So why was Charles' Lightoller's book condemned and suppressed?

But first, there's a few things Tim needs to know about Reefton...

Did Titanic Sink? Season 2 - Coming Soon! Jul 07, 2024

Show notes

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.
