WITNESS TITANIC
31. Riccardo Rosi - Italian Titanic Researcher
Titanic was an international vessel that became an international sensation. Despite this, her stories can be inaccessible if you don't speak the right language. This week, we hear the testimony of a bilingual Titanic researcher working to bring English stories to Italy and Italian stories to our podcast.

Riccardo will also be uploading a version of this episode with Italian subtitles to his channel @TitanRick401
