It's episode 92 and we're talking about t*ts and shipwrecks! First up, we dive into North America's Great Lakes and learn about the first known shipwreck in 1679--Le Griffon--and bookend it with the last major shipwreck, the SS Edmund Fitzgerald. We also talk about the Great Storm of 1913 and the weather systems that can make the Great Lakes so dangerous! After the break, we saddle up our horses, let our hair down and spark one up for Lady Godiva, who may have gotten her t*ts out for lower taxes! Hurrah!
