Did Titanic Sink? Season 2 - Coming Soon!

From Did Titanic Sink?, 9:15 am on 8 July 2024

A year has passed since the award-winning first season of the podcast and Carlo and Tim have been commissioned by RNZ to undertake another investigation.

There is a tiny image of a black cat too -referencing the Canterbury Panther legend. The title of the show "Did Titanic Sink?" Is written in large green letters with the texture of an America dollar bill overlaid.

According to the broadcasters' top brass, the Titanic has "obviously" been done to completion and they have instead tasked the pair to investigate a local mystery; the legendary Canterbury Cat - a possible panther roaming the flat plains of the South Island.

Carlo and Tim happily take the assignment (and the production budget), assuring RNZ they’ll deliver a compelling season on this fantastic beast. 

But what if everything they told RNZ was a lie?

Tim: To quote a film the name of which I no longer remember “Are you ready to go back to Titanic?”

A secret hidden book? A mysterious local legend about a giant cat? What has all this got to do with the most shipwreck of all time?

When then rubber hits the road - or the ship hits the iceberg - what can you really believe?

This is Did Titanic Sink? Season 2!

The full story of this fiasco will be released on July 15 2024.
