💩 It’s one of the most infamous cruise stories of the 21st century — the “Poop Cruise.” In this episode, we revisit the 2013 Carnival Triumph disaster, when a fire in the engine room left more than 4,000 passengers and crew stranded at sea for four harrowing days… without power, plumbing, or peace.What happened on board was equal parts horrifying and bizarre:🚽 Overflowing toilets🛑 No air conditioning🔦 No electricity🛏️ Tent cities on deck💼 Red biohazard bags distributed for human waste🍹 An open bar to "boost morale" (that backfired fast)🤦‍♂️ Fights, public sex, and drunken chaosAll of it occurred under the baking Gulf sun, with raw sewage spilling into hallways and passengers sleeping in makeshift shelters above deck. It was a moment that challenged cruise line reputation — and the limits of human dignity.🗣️ In this conversation, we explore:What caused the Carnival Triumph to fail so dramaticallyFirsthand passenger accounts and media coverage of the crisisCarnival’s unusual response strategies, like the open bar and free future cruisesThe long-term PR nightmare this created for the cruise industry🚢 But we don’t stop there. We dive into the Titanic vs. Poop Cruise discussion — one historical, one horrifying (in a different way).While the Titanic ended in tragedy, it also became a cultural touchstone, forever romanticized in film and memory. The Poop Cruise? Not so much. But should it be? Could it have marketing potential?We jokingly explore:A Carnival “Poop Cruise Experience” theme nightThe ethics of profiting off disaster tourismWhy some people would probably pay for the T-shirt that says, “I survived the poop cruise”💬 Join us for a mix of dark humor, history, and cruise ship crisis management gone completely sideways.This episode blends absurdity with analysis — because sometimes, the worst-case scenario is just too unbelievable to ignore.🎧 Don’t forget to subscribe for weekly dives into strange history, weird news, and thoughtful discussion (even if it’s about poop).👇 Let us know in the comments:Would you ever get on a Carnival cruise after this?Titanic or Triumph — which would YOU rather be on?Is there such a thing as funny disaster tourism?
