Summary
Greetings, Comrades!
Some episodes make me feel bad – but for various reasons. Some have awful subject matters, some…like this one, was created from a source so awful and incoherent – even though the subject matter is really interesting – that making a coherent narrative was just a massive pain in the backside. Oh, and we don’t even get to the boat itself. Because seriously, if I’d try to mix that one in as well, you’d probably get very confused at the end. But the groundwork needs to be set, and this is what we do here. Enjoy!

| 1:07.0 | It's monstrous because although people who've lived through some interesting events, |
| 1:12.1 | are very valuable sources, they also often are not that good of writing. |
| 1:18.9 | I mean, there is a reason why biographies are usually written by other folks instead of |
