Ep 148148: Wait For Me [In The Dark pt.1]

E

On the night of April 15th, 1912 a ship sank in the waters of the North Atlantic on its maiden voyage. Titanic's tragedy made her infamous. But a second ship was involved that fateful evening, lurking in the dark. The efforts of her crew, her passengers, and one intrepid young wireless operator would ensure that this deeply unremarkable ship would also sail into the history books that night. As the Carpethia steamed towards Titanic in the hopes of a grand rescue all souls on board were united in one effort and one thought: wait for me. This week on Well, I Laughed is the underappreciated story of the ship that tried to save Titanic. 00:00:00 Catch-Up 00:28:50 Maia asks Grant questions about US/Iran 00:44:12 Wait for Mea 01:09:25 The Night of the Sinking 01:34:48 Arrival & Heartbreak 01:46:13 After the Sinking Connect with Us Website: wellilaughed.com Support us on Patreon: https://patreon.com/WellILaughedPodcast Email us at [email protected] Instagram: @wellilaughed Tiktok: @wellilaughed Facebook: Well, I Laughed Podcast YouTube: Well, I laughed Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ep 145145: If The Glove Fits [Prime Time Crime pt.1: OJ Simpson, Nicole Brown, and Ron Goldman]

E

The case is infamous, but the details and the controversy surrounding the OJ Simpson trial are less well known. This week, Maia unpacks the horrific murder of Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman. We build a timeline of both the crime and the subsequent investigation and trial. There will be blood, a hero dog, a surprisingly slow car chase, and, of course, gloves. Unpacking how a case that seemed so clear cut could go so disastrously wrong for the prosecution and how the defense was able to convince the jury to acquit. Forget what you think you know about the OJ Simpson trial, this week we uncover the details forgotten in the most famous murder case in America.
