In this episode, Kara and Ed did something they normally don't do and that is to record an episode of the show live in their classroom. They also brought on students to talk about one of the largest oceanic disasters of all time, the sinking of the Titanic April 14, 1912.
Perhaps one of the greatest dumpster fires of all time, the White Star Line's latest passenger ship that espoused luxury and lavishness, the Titanic was touted as a ship that was unsinkable. Even the second and third classes would have a better stay on the Titanic than any other ship out there. Until that fateful night a wayward iceberg said, "Hold my beer and watch this!"
Kara and Ed start off with an overview of what the actual Titanic was like complete with the living conditions and engineering specifications that combined to make the Titanic a marvel of human engineering. Afterwards Kara's and Ed's students will present various theories both conspiratorial and somewhat believable. Followed by Kara's analysis of the aftermath of the incident.
