    Spirits In The Hold
    Sep 30 2019
    Some places, things, and people just seem to be naturally unlucky - some would say they’re ‘cursed’. When one ship sees three captains die whilst on board, and ruins the careers of everyone who touches it, people start to wonder. But what happens when a ship is found hundreds of miles from it’s last known location, totally unmanned with no signs of a struggle and no explanation for the whereabouts of the crew? A mystery for the ages is born. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    We like to think we know what’s going on in our backyard - that things couldn’t just disappear from right under our noses.

    In a small, dark cell deep within the walls of the bastille, a lone man sits in his cell, silently. Nobody knows his name. Nobody knows what he looks like. He’ll die and be buried in a pauper’s grave, with nobody to mourn him, and pass into history. But everyone has heard of him - he’s one of the most famous people in history that nobody knows.

    Civilisation is an interesting concept-we often see it as a bulwark against the wild. And with the advent of things like *glamping*, we like to think we can take it with us, to civilise those wilds. But nearly 180 years ago, when the greatest equipped and most advanced expedition in the history of an empire set out to do just that, we were proven wrong, with gruesome consequences.

    Keeping in contact is important - as someone who’s lived overseas from my family before, I can attest to that. It helps us keep track of those who mean the most to us, our friends and families. When we lose contact it can make us anxious; when we lose *all* contact, we’re simply left in bewilderment. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Some people are driven by a singular purpose - creating, building, discovering, and much more. Those who are driven by the singular desire to explore are often those who we remember the most, but this legacy comes with a certain amount of danger. Because sometimes that drive to go out means you don’t come back. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    The greatest legends of ancient civilisations are steeped in the trappings that come with a story told and retold. Larger than life characters, brave heroes and evil villains, great battles and wars that never end, with the gods themselves personally invested. But in all these great stories, there’s always a kernel of truth - something that actually happened; or a city that really stood, and fell. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Art is interesting - it tells us about the person who made it. Where they came from; what they’re interested in; how they see the world. Some art is grand in scale, so grand that you can’t help but stand back and marvel. Some art however is so grand that you need to stand *really* far back. At the top of a mountain, say. It’s all about perspective... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
