Summary
The search for a missing OceanGate submersible ended in tragedy when all five passengers were declared dead from a catastrophic implosion. Many questions are being asked about what happened to the vessel, the experimental materials used to construct it, and why the CEO chose to avoid warnings from industry leaders in deep-sea exploration.
We discuss the bizarre tweets Hamish Harding’s stepson sent to Blink 182, the familial connection Stockton Rush’s wife has to Titanic passengers, and we also read an email we received from a former OceanGate employee.
