In this episode, Graeme Hill is joined by shipwreck storyteller John McCrystal to revisit the haunting story of the General Grant, one of the most famous wrecks of the Auckland Islands. The conversation follows the ship’s disastrous collision with the island’s cliffs and caves, the desperate evacuation, and the extraordinary ordeal of the few survivors who endured 18 months in the sub-Antarctic before rescue. It is a story of treasure, myth, endurance and loss but above all, a powerful human account of survival against impossible odds.
