TITANIC

  1. TITANIC Daniel Mainwaring 29:30

In 1912, the “unsinkable” jewel in the crown of White Star Line voyages — The Titanic — hit an iceberg and sunk on its maiden voyage. It is difficult to imagine how passengers enjoying the amenities of this luxury liner would have reacted when suddenly they realized the vessel had become a floating coffin. Only a third of the passengers and crew survived the harrowing journey. 

But, a touring exhibition now casts light on those passengers in an intimate and immersive manner. The Titanic Exhibition is currently on tour in Seattle, Washington. Visitors will gain access to over 200 artifacts from the ill fated voyage, as well as immersive audio commentary shedding light on the personal stories of passengers, and the chance to explore incredible recreations of the decks from the iconic ship.

In this episode, I speak with the CEO of Musealia — the company behind the exhibition — Luis Ferreiro about this remarkable, critically acclaimed exhibit as well as his personal story about how his father turned a Spanish national radio show about fishing into a global history exhibition company.

This episode is sponsored by World History Encyclopedia, one of the top history websites on the internet. I love the fact that they’re not a Wiki: Every article they publish is reviewed by their editorial team, not only for being accurate but also for being interesting to read. The website is run as a non-profit organization, so you won’t be bombarded by annoying ads and it’s completely free. It’s a great site, and don’t just take my word for it they’ve been recommended by many academic institutions including Oxford University. Go check them out at WorldHistory.org or follow this link: World History Encyclopedia.
