Episode notes
Andrew and Michelle tackle one of the worst passenger ship tragedies to ever hit Lake Superior. Learn about the SS Algoma, her sister ships, the SS Athabasca and the SS Alberta, their crazy trip all of the way from Glasgow, the firsts, titles, and fanfare that came with them, and the wild hurricane-level storm that ended the Algoma's career. Heads up, this is a more serious episode that covers a lot of tragic death If that's not really your thing, we get it and will see you on the next one.
