| 10/27/25 | Episode 89 - The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald | The SS Edmund Fitzgerald sank November 10th, 1975.

Leave us a review at thelighthouselowdown.comReferences:Gordon Lightfoot – The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald Lyrics | Genius LyricsThe Cruelest Month - Edmund Fitzgerald Newsweek, November 24, 1975 | PDF | Water Transport | ViolenceTIL Gordon Lightfoot was inspired to write "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" when he saw the name misspelled as "Edmond" in Newsweek magazine.

| 10/13/25 | Episode 88 - Point Betsie Lighthouse | Like most beachy lighthouses, Point Betsie battled shifting sands for its whole lifetime, now shielded by at least three methods of erosion control to keep the light shining! Point Betsie Lighthouse is a standing testament to what a community can do (whether that's saving a lighthouse, building a road, or saving lives) when they work together.Liked this episode?

| 9/29/25 | Episode 87 - Avery Point Lighthouse | Although this was the last lighthouse built in Connecticut, it is the first for us to cover in the state, and the first we've covered that skipped straight to 200 Watt bulbs! Avery Point Lighthouse was built by the Coast Guard in 1944 as a part of their training center, later becoming a physics laboratory for the University of Connecticut.Thank you to all who left us reviews!

| 9/15/25 | Episode 86 - Crisp Point Lighthouse | Listener Lighthouse! I'm trying to think of a lighthouse where I have this hard of a time saying it's name out loud... Regardless, Crisp Point Lighthouse was close neighbors with a Life-Saving Station, along with three others built along "Shipwreck Coast" in 1876. This red-capped light still shines today as a private ATON.Liked this episode?

| 9/1/25 | Episode 85 - Point Bonita Lighthouse | What's prettier than a lighthouse on a cliff edge? Point Bonita lives up to its name, adjacent to a mini version of the Golden Gate Bridge.

| 7/21/25 | Episode 82 - Whitefish Point Lighthouse | Where is whitefish fishing good? Probably at the Whitefish Township, at Whitefish Point in Whitefish Bay...which is why we needed Whitefish Point Lighthouse! Have I said whitefish too much? This skeletal lighthouse is unique in many ways, with a decagonal lantern room, second floor covered walkway, and a lifeboat station that physically left the grounds to return decades later.Liked this episode?

| 7/7/25 | Episode 81 - Väderöbod Lighthouse | Vince is back from Sweden, and he brought back tales of a lighthouse that took many daymarks over it's lifetime! The Väderöbod Lighthouse is one of many Swedish lighthouses built on the islands of the Väderö archipelago. Although it is 9 miles off the coast, if you can handle yourself in a kayak you are welcome to visit and even stay on the island!Liked this episode?

| 6/23/25 | Episode 80 - Lobster Cove Head Lighthouse | While Lobster Cove makes me think of a rocky beach and open seas all around, what you'll find in Newfoundland is vastly different! Surrounded by a lush national park, glacier-carved fjords and thundering waterfalls, Lobster Cove Head Lighthouse flashes white over 100 feet above the waves. Liked this episode?

| 5/26/25 | Episode 78 - Cape Fear Lighthouse | Unfortunately, the name Cape Fear directly correlates to how mariners felt about the area, dubbing the Frying Pan Shoals almost as fearsome as the Graveyard of the Atlantic. However, efforts to light the area were a struggle, and we ended up with many different lighthouses (and lightships) in an attempt to mark the shoals.Liked this episode?

| 4/14/25 | Episode 75 - Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse | Like most inlets in eastern Florida, Hillsboro Inlet's waters were filled with wrecked ships. But it wasn't until 1907 that a lighthouse was built there, sturdy enough to withstand hurricanes, shifting sands, and the ocean waves. Hillsboro Inlet Lighthouse was home to some of the best lighthouse keepers the US had to offer, and still shines brightly today with it's original Fresnel lens in its lantern room!Liked this episode?

Thank you to Megan for sending this in.Commonly known as the I Love You Lighthouse, Minot's Ledge actually has a deadly history as a strange lighthouse on stilts!

| 1/20/25 | Episode 69 - The Eddystone Lighthouse and John Smeaton | If you are one of our wonderful UK listeners, these two names may be familiar to you! Vince is taking us across the pond to one of the oldest lighthouses in the UK, and the first lighthouse to be built on a rock in open sea. While the first two editions of the light were shaky at best, John Smeaton created a version that stood the test of time (and we're convinced even a nuke couldn't bring it down!).
