I love this podcast, it is interesting and fun to hear the actual quotes from the people that were on titanic! I appreciate you doing this podcast very much!
Apple Podcasts5Pupcake 47United States2 months ago - Great listen
I found this podcast two weeks ago after visiting the Legend of Titanic Immersive Experience. I’ve always been interested in Titanic but the exhibit resparked my passion. I drive a lot for my job and looked to find Titanic related podcasts. I discovered this one and have since got up-to-date on all the episodes. It’s so informative. It’s great at dispelling a lot of Titanic myths by going through firsthand testimonials. High recommend for anyone interested in Titanic!

I have been a somewhat casual student of the Titanic and her storied loss for nearly five decades now. As such, I feel like I have a fairly well-rounded understanding of the ship and the tragedy.
I am so grateful to Mr. Penca and his fine podcast! This gentleman’s knowledge of the subject matter is beyond reproach. Equally importantly, he himself is intelligent, well-spoken, and very personable.
The time I have spent listening has been entertaining, informative, and so worthwhile.
