Maritime Archaeology (SHIPWRECKS) Encore with Chanelle Zaphiropoulos

Oh hey, it's 2025 Allie here to dig into my carpet bag of favorite episodes and hand you one you may have missed. And if you didn't miss it, you can listen again because it's great. It's really, really a good one. Also, this encore is going up because last week I was in New York to tape a segment of the Tonight Show during which I showed Jimmy Fallon and Sama Hayek the wonder of bugs. And you can find that segment on YouTube.

But if you stick around to the end of the episode, I'll share a little bit more about that and some stuff that got cut. But first, shipwrecks. Let's go. Oh hey, it's your wallet, which if I'm so important to you, why do you lose me all the time? Allie Ward back with a watery historical episode of Ologies.

I've wanted to do this episode for so long, so this ologist is an ologyite as well and pitched the topic to me with such zeal and such passion that I just couldn't wait to dive in and hear all about it. This Canadian got her bachelor's in classical, ancient, Mediterranean, and Near Eastern studies and archaeology from the Memorial University of Newfoundland in Canada, where she was also the president of her scuba diving club. And she's like moments away from her master's in maritime archaeology at the University of Malta. This was recorded a few years ago, so obviously she got it. We'll talk about what Malta is later.

We already have this episode, so unlocking it is cheap and permanent: the full transcript (99 minutes, 17,628 words), segment and word-level timestamps, and .txt, .srt, .vtt and word-level JSON downloads, as many times as you like, forever.
