Show is rad so far. These polar expedition were absolutely crazy and the men who went on them even crazier

This is a pretty interesting read on scurvy and how we as a society found the cure then accidentally lost it for a good while. It doesn't apply to this ship due to the timeline involved but future polar trips definitely fell victim to it.

I like the bit with Sir John's last alive thoughts being Crozier cozying up to his niece. Of all the things to have run through your mind at the time of death and its that.

If there is one thing nautical shows are good at it’s showing how awful punishments can be. Keelhauling in Black Sails and like a boy in this. Yikes.

Bligh's story of the mutiny on the Bounty and the subsequent many thousand mile voyage over open sea in a tiny boat is a story stranger than fiction.

Men Against the Sea was a great read. How they only lost a few men is absolutely ridiculous.

Started watching the expanse and got pleasantly surprised by Crozier showing up. So that’s cool.
