    147 | Among Bears: Timothy Treadwell
    14 Oct 2026
    In 1989, Timothy Treadwell set his sights on Alaska for the first time with a deep desire to see grizzly bears. His first interaction would lead him spending over a decade with these incredible creatures in the Alaska wilderness. His time here would shed light on human-bear encountes, bear safety, and the dangers of living, without respect or protection, among the bears.

    The outdoors are a beautiful that can be filled with light and bliss and many different ways to bring yourself closer to those you love and yourself. But they can also be filled with terror and death, imminent and oppressive. Join me as we dig into these stories that inspire you to be just a little bit more careful while you’re in the outdoors.

    146 | The Illegal Legend of Yosemite
    9 Sep 2026
    There is something captivating about those who dive head first into danger. It is almost as if there is a second hand thrill that comes with hearing the stories of what they have lived, when they have leaned on adrenaline, skill and a bit of luck to see them through.

    For Dean Potter, many saw his adventures, his dark arts, and the skill he brought to the walls and skies of Yosemite National Park. But it was the work he put in behind the scenes that had climbers and base jumpers everywhere looking up to him. Admiring him. Graham Hunt felt himself lucky to work along side Dean. But, as is all too common when living life on the edge, sometimes things go terribly wrong.

    Welcome back to Tragedy with a View.

  • 145 | The Disappearance of the Sarah Joe and the Mysterious Grave

    145 | The Disappearance of the Sarah Joe and the Mysterious Grave
    29 Jul 2026
    Five friends set out on a 17-foot "unsinkable" boat in 1979, and vanished without a trace.

    Despite one of the largest search efforts of its kind, no bodies, no wreckage, and no answers were ever found. It was as if the ocean had simply erased them.

    Then, a decade later, the impossible happened.

    Thier boat was discovered on a remote atoll in the Marshall Islands, thousands of miles from where it disappeared. Oceanographers say the drifting vessel should have arrived in just a few months, not ten years. Stranger still, reasearched had surveryed the same atoll only two years earlier and found no sign of the boat.

    But the bigger mystery was a makeshift grave containting the bones of one of the missing men, raising questions that remain unanswered more than 40 years later.

    How did the boat arrive after it should have? Who buried the sailor? And what really happened to the oother four men?

    In this episode, we unravel the chilling mystery of the Sarah Joe, one of the Pacific Ocean's more baffling disappearances.

    If you enjoy true myseries, unexplained disappearances, maritime disasters, and real unsolved cases, be sure to join the podcast for more storeis where the evidence only deepens the mystery.
