Show notes

ENDURANCE Part 1! This week, we dive head first into the incredible story of the Endruance and her amazing crew led by Sir Ernest Shackleton! One of our favorite stories of survival, and longest, of this entire crew of men became stuck in the deadly ice floes of Antartic Ocean/Weddell Sea so close as they try to reach Antartica. They were marooned on ice for 18 months and even watched their ship get crushed. Find out what happens to the crew of the Endurance next week for Part 2!
