The best kids podcasts about… The Titanic, with bonus Submarines
With the sad news about the Titan submersible the Titanic has been in the news a lot of late. This gigantic ship of lore sailed many years ago and now lies deep beneath the sparkling waves of the ocean. Supposed to be the safest ship ever built it remains a fascinating mystery that intrigues many children’s minds. If you have younger ones asking about what the Titanic was, we have three great episodes that’ll pique their interest in the extraordinary tale of the ship’s ill-fated journey.
Episode 67: Violet Jessop, The Effie Afton, and more Shipwrecks
Violet Jessop survived not one, not two, but three shipwrecks involving White Star Line’s incredible Olympic-class ships, including the Titanic. The Effie Afton was not so lucky. This steamboat was part of the struggle between railroads and riverboats, and she crashed into the only bridge on the Mississippi River, two weeks after it opened.
Curious About The Titanic
In episode 134, we get curious about The Titanic for Adelyn and Archie of Cedar Grove, New Jersey and Addison of Tennessee. How big was The Titanic? What did it look like? Why did it sink? What has been done in the years since to make sure nothing like the sinking of The Titanic ever happens again?
23. How Much Water is in All the Oceans? How violently did Titanic shake when it hit the Iceberg? What is the Deadliest Shark and why?
Hello, hello, hello! Welcome to the 23rd episode of Everything Under The Sun, which this week is about OCEANS! We have three questions from Molly, Cooper and Lara, which are: How Much Water is in All the Oceans? How violently did Titanic shake when it hit the Iceberg? And What is the Deadliest Shark and why?
And whilst the depths of the ocean may be dangerous, vast and unknown, there is so much beauty and fascinating life to explore. From colourful coral reefs to mesmerising sea creatures, the underwater realm offers a breathtaking spectacle to explore. Here are some episodes about how we use submarines to get so deep and why we explore the ocean’s secrets.
