Published on: 20th June, 2025

Welcome back to the Remote Reality podcast! In Part Two of their deep dive into the Netflix documentary "Titan: The OceanGate Submersible Disaster," Lauren and Dee, your go-to lawyer and paralegal duo, expose even more shocking details of the catastrophic event.

This episode focuses on the alarming leadership style of OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush. Lauren and Dee discuss how Rush notoriously refused to listen to anyone who disagreed with him, including seasoned experts and engineers who voiced serious safety concerns. They delve into the chilling accounts of the Titan submersible's hull cracking and popping sounds – picked up by a network of microphones – which Stockton Rush dismissively brushed off as "what normally happens" in a submarine.

Prepare for a candid discussion about the glaring red flags that were not only ignored but actively suppressed. Lauren and Dee explore the alleged pattern of firing dissenters and how Stockton Rush prioritized his vision over fundamental safety protocols, effectively "making a rose bouquet out of the red flags and sending it with them as a parting gift."

There are tragic consequences with unchecked ambition and a severe lack of accountability. You won't want to miss their insights into this disaster and the stark warnings that went unheeded.
