The Flying Dutchman of the Great Lakes

  • Summary

  • It's episode 10!!! Join your hosts, Andrew and Michelle, today as they cover the spooky backstory of the SS Bannockburn. Allegedly, she can still be seen today, coasting over the waters of Lake Superior. Also, Michelle apologizes for her sound quality. She was trying to be one with the lake and record from an underwater location. She promises never to do it again, claiming that it's due to editing purposes, but we all know that it's more likely something she did or didn't see while under the waves. That aside, enjoy the spooky vibe of this mysterious ghost ship that is doomed to forever patrol the Great Lakes.
