Time To Talk TitanicShow Notes
Arron from ‘Time To Talk Titanic’ podcast returns to review the oldest surviving Titanic film, In Night and Ice (released as In Nacht und Eis). This German silent film was released just months after the disaster.
Arron brings a mini-one sentence review of SOS Titanic (1979), whilst Sean compares the film to Star Trek: The Next Generation. They then discuss the accuracy of the sets and the actions of the women in the film.
They also seek to answer:
-How quickly were claims about events of the sinking accepted in popular culture?
-Would more lifeboats have helped?

In this episode of Time To Talk Titanic, Arron chats with renowned Author & Historian Steve Hall, who has written many books about Titanic, including one dedicated to debunking the ever-persistent Titanic/Olympic 'Switch Theory'. This Titanic conspiracy has always done the rounds online, and 2023 has seen it blow up on Tik Tok with a viral video detailing the theory. Arron and Steve discuss the possibility of a switch happening, and also try to dig into when this theory even began...
In this episode of Time To Talk Titanic, Arron, Chandler, Presley, David and Callum discuss the wreck of the RMS Titanic, the laws and regulations put in place to protect it, the different ideas that have been thought of over the years to preserve or even raise her, and the multiple ways that people have taken advantage of the tragedy and the wreck for their own profit.
In this episode of Time To Talk Titanic, Arron and David discuss the recent abomination of a horror movie that is Titanic 666, the reasons that movie studios have used the Titanic disaster as a source of profit since April 1912 when the ship sank, and also how other tragedies have been used in such a way, the differences, as well as how it could be done properly and well.
Inflatable sinking Titanic slides at kids parties. “Gin and Ti-tonic” ice cube trays. Captain Smith portrayed as a zombie in a Titanic horror movie. How can we humanise this disaster again in the modern day, and bring back a sense of reverence and understanding that has been lost over the years?
Would anyone have thought to set up their cameras and take any pictures inside the ship of flooding - or as passengers waited for instruction with their lifebelts on? Is it possible that we might have had visual documentation of the disaster?
