Episode 520: The Tragedy of the Essex Part I - Thar She Blows!

This week the boys make their return to the high seas, breaking down The Tragedy of the Essex, a harrowing tale of blood, whale guts, and cannibalism that would go on to inspire the literary classic "Moby Dick".

Comments

This episode has Leviathan from Mastodon written all over it. And of course, very metal.

There isn't on the latest side stories either

Aw hell yeah

This episode reminds me a lot of Dishonored and the whaling themes of that game.

😔 💔 I hate SeaWorld!

Totally agree! Whalers are fucking monsters and I’m really glad this story ends with them eating each other. A satisfying outcome.

SJ

Looking forward to the cannibalism part!

Whenever the boys set sail I am here for it. There’s something about being shipwrecked/marooned/lost at sea that limmediately takes people to a level of terror similar to “Oh fuck, the spiders have travelled the tube into the colostomy bag”.

Found the inevitable serial killer LPOTL fan

Killing one whaler and making it known that's the reason for their death will do more than 100 million bumper stickers.

I just watched this movie too, a week or so ago.

This makes me so MAD at whalers. Disgusting that I'm almost ready to buy a "save the whales" bumper sticker.

I first heard about the Essex when Ask a Mortician did an episode on it. I am so excited (and a little frightened) to hear what the boys do with it!
