Ep. 119 Bermuda Triangle - Unmanned Ships, Unpredictable Seas, & Unidentified Transmissions

This week, the discussion gets pointed (that's a triangle joke) when Tracey and Rowan explore the mythology of the Bermuda Triangle. Stories include the misadventures of Christopher Columbus, wandering ghost ships, ocean farts caused by methane gas, an FBI investigation, and the mysterious disappearance of Flight 19.

The pair also reads the last transmissions from military training Flight 19 before the planes (and their eventual rescue party) disappeared.
