[roxacrocker]

Not gonna lie I was so caught up in the tragic story of Victor Peñasco and María Josefa genuinely tearing up that I forgot I was watching a cooking video until I was reminded of the eggs

[adamplace]

Oh man, the postcard thing was a real kick in the stomach. The storytelling from this channel is just top notch.

[moomyung]

The person trying to comfort the newlywed has my respect. It probably didn't help much, but the effort means a lot.

[iridescentaurora]

Violet Jessop, who survived not just the sinking of the Titanic, but also the Olympic and Britannic working as a ladies maid/stewardess - noted in her diaries that American passengers noticeably realized that she was a person who was only trying to make their trip more pleasant - whereas one can infer that the British passengers merely saw her as a servant, not much more.

It would be really cool if the Titanic museums would have a dining area included where you could try some of these recipes.

Max trying to hold composure after saying “small tight buns” was the most wholesome thing I’ve seen

[lisahoshowsky]

I was so caught up in dogs dying and the tragic love story and postcards I forgot this was cooking😭😭😭
You’re such a compelling story teller and cook.

The Titanic had its own printshop on board. They created the menus, notices, wine lists, stationery/envelopes, etc. The menus were printed via letterpress and some prints used a process called thermography. When it comes to letterpress printing, each character (an individual letter like "a") has to be placed by hand, but each letter is reversed and the words itself had to be arranged in reverse. It doesn't surprise me that one of the menus came out with a spelling error. Either they didn't catch it or they did but were short on either time or paper. On the night of the sinking, it is possible that the printers, Albert and Ernest, were printing the following day's menus. Although it would be at the bottom of the ocean, it's wild to think that a menu exists for a day that never came to many passengers.

[LordTomServo]

As a fellow Hispanic, I can say with a degree of certainty, that Victor had a uncanny amount of, "I should have listen to my madre", which was absolutely indescribable.

[roblewis]

I so wish Max would read some books for Audible. His storytelling ability is fantastic. I felt the pain of the loss of the Spanish couple.

[kaneki-ken]

As a Spanish guy myself, I demand a movie of Victor and Josefa: how they got on board, the voyage and the terrible tragedy. There were a total of 10 Spanish passengers, and 7 survived.

[williamjones]

The story of the Spanish couple is so memorizing. I stopped my breakfast to hear it. This is a story I have never heard until now. Thank you for telling it.

[SilentK]

I don’t think I’ll ever get sick of titanic, even though it’s heartbreaking. I like that you honor people who are otherwise forgotten to time. Keep ‘em coming Max! You are amazing.

[namuseraici]

I am SO happy Max didn't sell the rights to this show to Netflix or something. A streaming cooking show is nothing compared to this channel and the cook book and undoubtedly the awesome things to come. This is hands down my favorite YouTube channel.

[DeathMetalDerf]

Can we all just agree that this is one of the very best channels on all of YouTube? If only history class was this interestingly presented to us. I think I'd have paid way more attention.

[warriors]

Just discovered your channel Max. I'm the owner of a little independent bookshop in the Blue Mountains, NSW Australia. I was doing the September new release order from Simon & Schuster and your book was on their list as an upcoming release. I was intrigued by the book description and have the tendency to look things up that I've not heard of before while doing the orders. So glad I found this. For someone who loves food and history I have been delighted by the several episodes I've watched so far. Thank you for this wonderful way to learn!! Peggy

[guidotettelaar]

My thirteen year old son is absolutely fascinated with the Titanic. Since he was about eight he has been learning everything about it. I have been watching Tasting History for a couple of years now and when the Titanic series started last year we started watching together. So yes, keep the Titanic stuff coming, Max! Loving it!

[rickm]

Wow Max, the story of the Spanish newlyweds was deftly told, you do have a talent that is so well showcased here on your channel. WELL DONE!

[katiepeterson]

That story with the postcards was just so sad. I cannot imagine the agony that mother felt. I can't imagine the agony his poor wife was in.

[Jadeskorpion]

This would be a great themed restaurant. A history lesson with each meal. A different one each day of the month.
