This week's episode is a bit rough as Andrew and Michelle cover potentially the worst wreck in Georgian Bay and perhaps Lake Huron itself - the SS Asia. The kicker? Sources then and sources today still can't agree on all of the facts about this wreck that has eluded shipwreck hunters for 144 years. And hey, if you don't like dark stories, we get it and we'll catch you next time! <3 Suicide + Crisis Hotline: 988 Text "Home" or "Hello" to 741741 to connect with a trained crisis counselor <3 Cana
