Episode 5
E5: The Mary Celeste - Sails, Silence, and The Sea
E5: Mary Celeste – Sails, Silence, and the Sea
A ship found adrift. No crew. No lifeboat. No signs of struggle. Just canvas, timber, and silence.
In this episode, Jenn tells Jared the haunting story of the Mary Celeste — one of the most enduring maritime mysteries in history. What was supposed to be a routine voyage to Italy ended with a ghost ship drifting through the Atlantic. Theories abound, but the facts are stranger than fiction.
🎙️ In this episode:
- The eerie discovery by the Dei Gratia
- Clues left behind (and what wasn’t there)
- A messy salvage trial that made things worse
- Mutiny? Murder? Sea monster??
- The legend… and the lies

Bonus content includes:

- A breakdown of the crew (and why we’re sad this part didn’t make the main ep)
- Why Sir Arthur Conan Doyle made everything worse
- Jenn going too far with a joke
- Oddities and fun facts — which is really just… all of it
