So this Titanic Talk episode is a little different. Nelson and Alexandra wanted to pose the question of what exactly happened to Rose after she disembarked the Carpathia. Who did she marry and have children with and why oh why didn't she sell The Heart of the Ocean!?

These questions and many more, along with "WHO is your Titanic Crush?", are posed and answered with return guests - and fellow stars of Ship of Dreams: Titanic Movie Diaries, Brittany Butler, of the wonderful James Cameron's Titanic Scene by Scene podcast and uber, super fan Zach Douglas.

Be sure to write to us on Instagram with your thoughts on Rose's life after Jack and also do tell us who is your Titanic crush?

Nelson and Alexandra share an animated and nostalgic conversation with the charmingly French Fannie Brett. All three of them are 'ex-pat' Angelenos so they reminisce about Los Angeles life and work in the 90s and their dinners at El Coyote - and you though they only drank margaritas in Rosarito Beach, Mexico!

Fannie is still acting but she is also a renown voice actor/teacher, casting director and producer. She has a successful dubbing studio which she runs from Las Vegas. In 1996, however, she'd not long been in America when she was cast in Titanic as Benjamin Guggenheim's mistress Madame Aubert.

She describes in detail her audition process with Mali Fin on what was her first American film. If you are just starting out, you will learn a lot about the business of acting and see that the world of Titanic really was populated by people from all over the world. Titanic was a floating city of the rich and the poor and a myriad of nations were represented. Madame Aubert's part in the tragedy is particularly interesting...

FYI - for you die-hard Titanic fans the etiquette coach/choreographer was Lynne Hockney and the onset photographer we were talking about is Merie Wallace

Fannie's dubbing and voice actor training company is 7HM (Seven Holdings Media)

For more information on her one-on-one training email her at fannie@7holdingsmedia.com

Nelson and Alexandra had the pleasure of spending Titanic Weekend (April 12th & 13th) on The Queen Mary in Long Beach CA presenting their book (Kindred Spirits: A Titanic Tale) and film (Ship of Dreams: Titanic Movie Diaries) respectively and joining the Titanic podcast triumvirate of Paul Carganilla and his Titanic Legacy podcast, and James Penca and his Witness Titanic podcast, in a roundtable recording made in front of a live audience in the Mauritania Room.

LISTEN to a fascinating collection of origin stories, anecdotes and advice on how to deal with 'those critics' as these three podcasters cross-pollinate and agree that they are all connected by Titanic.

Nelson and Alexandra spent a wonderful second podcast conversation with returning author and documentarian Steven Schwankert.

In Season Two Steven was on the podcast talking about his extraordinary and groundbreaking film THE SIX about the surviving Chines passengers on Titanic who very few people had heard of since they disembarked at New York in 1912.

Steven has expanded the story and his research into his new book The Six: The Untold Story of the Titanic's Chinese Survivors. He delves more deeply into the history of the Chinese sailors with more details that couldn't fit into a 100 minute feature film.

LISTEN and you will learn a lot about this little known piece of Titanic survivor history.

In this episode, Nelson and Alexandra learn a bit about the business of Titanic from Joe Gold of The Gold Group, the promotional company behind the Titanic Artefact Exhibition in Boston.

Joe talks about some of the fascinating artefacts they have on display including a toilet from third class and a perfectly preserved wool suit retrieved from a leather suitcase in the debris field.

They discuss the importance of preservation and education. The Boston exhibition is one of more than forty around world. Retrieving dishes, eye glasses and every day objects tells up about the people who used those things and brings their lives a little closer to our understanding of life - if all too briefly - aboard the ship of dreams.

Extended by popular demand, the exhibition in Boston continues at the Castle at Park Plaza until June 1st 2025. Be sure to catch Nelson's book signing there on Wednesday May 14th.
