​Life Aboard a 19th Century Whaling Ship: The Brutal Truth

Tonight, we leave the solid ground beneath our feet. Step onto the slippery deck of a 19th-century American whaling ship and discover the dark reality hidden behind the romance of the sea.
​In this episode of Sleep Silent History, we travel back to 1850. From the suffocating stench of the "Try-works" and the maggot-infested hardtack to the terrifying "Nantucket Sleighride," we explore what life was truly like for the young sailors who signed away years of their lives for a gamble at fortune.
​This is not just a story of the ocean; it is a story of survival, isolation, and the industrial machine that lit the world with whale oil.
​Close your eyes, relax, and let this immersive journey drift you into the past.
