You know the story of Titanic. Or at least, you think you do.

But where did that story come from? Which details can be traced to testimony, documents, photographs, books, and recovered objects, and which entered Titanic history through memory, repetition, or popular culture?

In the first case file of "The Titanic Provenance Files," host Damon Henrichs explores the question at the heart of the series: How do we know what we know about Titanic?

Featuring voices from Titanic authors and researchers Don Lynch, Veronica Hinke, and Mark Chirnside, "Drawn to Titanic" follows the evidence trails that connect us to the ship and explains why Titanic history can resemble a million-piece puzzle with some of its most important pieces missing.

Open Case File 001 and discover why the evidence behind the familiar story may be even more fascinating than the story itself.

The Titanic Provenance Files is hosted by Damon Henrichs. This podcast explores Titanic history, provenance, public memory, and historical evidence. It is not an appraisal service and does not authenticate or value private artifacts.

Because the most interesting question is often not what happened. It’s how we know what happened.

Launching July 30, 2026.

The Titanic Provenance Files explores the story of Titanic through the evidence she left behind.

Each episode opens a specific case file: an object, book, document, artifact, relic, or contested piece of evidence connected to Titanic and the century of memory that followed.

Why July 30? On July 30, 1912, Lord Mersey’s British Wreck Commissioner’s report on the disaster was issued. It is a fitting date for a show built around records, testimony, provenance, and the question behind every Titanic story: How do we know what we know?
