Live Review: Peter Case @ Jammin’ Java — 4/12/23

Peter Case’s “first show on the road in three years” recently found him at Jammin’ Java in the DMV. Since that last tour, he’s released two albums: last year’s The Midnight Broadcast , recorded before lockdown, and this year’s Doctor Moan , his first piano-driven album. His set covered material from his nearly 40-year solo career.

A longtime resident of San Francisco, Case grew up in Buffalo, New York. As he told the audience at Jammin’ Java on April 12, his father was much older; Peter was born in 1954, and his father saw Babe Ruth play baseball. (Ruth retired in 1935; there a people still alive who saw him play. They’re very old, but they’re around.) Peter dropped out of high school and set about pursuing his dreams of becoming a musician, eventually taking a bus out to San Francisco.

Peter began his set with “Every 24 Hours,” after which he made a sly joke about getting his distinctive hat at the “singer-songwriter supply shop.” He continued with “Everywhere I Go,” then talked about the part of the touring life that is “walking around a town you don’t know like an asshole,” as things have changed, old places have closed up and new ones have opened.

Peter’s two new albums place one foot in the past and one in the present. The Midnight Broadcast  was a bit of a concept album. Mostly covers, it’s meant to imitate the old late-night broadband radio programs, programs that featured an eclectic mix of music you might not hear anywhere else. Case recorded the album at the Old Whaling Church on Martha’s Vineyard . The building, he said, had the greatest echo he’d ever heard in any space, almost too much, but they figured out how to manipulate by opening and closing doors. Doctor Moan, on the other hand, is an album of new material.

Watch the official music video for “Have You Ever Bee in Trouble” from Doctor Moan by Peter Case on YouTube:

Many of the tracks on The Midnight Broadcast, like the Memphis Minnie cover that came next, were old country-blues tunes. When I spoke to Peter, it was clear how much blues has influenced his work. Case’s set also included tunes by Jimmy Reed and Mance Lipscombe and a cover of Black Ivory King’s “The Flying Crow.”

While his parents weren’t professionals, they did play music. Peter displayed the style of harmonica his father played, which sounded, to my ear, a bit like music I associate with vaudeville and carnivals. Given what Peter said about his father’s age, that connection makes sense. For “Ice Water,” he said, “I put some of my words to it, but it’s his [my father’s] song.”

After “Underneath the Stars,” he dedicated “Everybody’s Got a Job To Do” to its co-writer, the late Bob Neuwirth. He mentioned Star Trek  following “Entella Hotel;” Peter is a lifelong fan of science-fiction. He played a couple more tunes on guitar — “Comb My Hair” and “House Rent Party.” “Just Hangin’ On” was written in a Unitarian Church when he was just 15.

For the last part of his set, Peter switched from piano. He played several tracks from the new album, Doctor Moan : “Have You Ever Been In Trouble?”, “Downtown Nowhere Blues,” “Eyes of Love” and “Book Of Rules.” He told the story of the one time he met Bruce Springsteen, when he was playing the Marz club in New Jersey. He had his son with him on that tour, and they had been robbed of all their clothes, so they had purchased two very cheap pink t-shirts on the beach, which they were wearing when they met The Boss, who bought Peter’s underage son a drink. Bruce seems like a fun guy!

It’s a interesting life Peter leads, and one that has occasionally landed him in hot water. He ended the set with “Somebody Told The Truth,” about his true-life experience of being suspected of a crime. He got the crowd involved, singing along and clapping. Throughout the show, his voice sounded great, and there was as little rust as there could be after being off the road for so long. Peter is a pro, and he got right back on the horse where he left off three years ago.

REVIEW: Peter Case “Doctor Moan”

Peter Case – Doctor Moan (Sunset Blvd. Records)

As a member of the groundbreaking proto punk band The Nerves, former frontman for the wildly underrated Plimsouls , and a remarkable solo artist for the past three decades, Peter Case has earned the right to deviate from the music people expect from him at this point. And deviate he does on Doctor Moan , his 16th solo album.

Across 11 tracks, Case puts down the guitar for most of the set and moves to the piano for this wide-ranging collection of jazz, blues and folk songs.   “I grew up on 1950s and ‘60s rock & roll, jazz, classical and folk,” said Case recently. “I learned how to play blues as a kid, street singing in San Francisco and then was part of the punk rock movement. It’s all still in there; it’s my musical DNA.”

You can hear those blues influences on the opening track, “Have You Ever Been In Trouble?” with its suspenseful opening piano and some ultra low end chords, and the charming “Downtown Nowhere’s Blues,” one of the early stand out tracks here. There are a few weaker tracks here, like “Eyes Of Love,” mixed among the genuinely great numbers. “Wandering Days,” one of the few guitar-focused songs on the record, is easily one of his best songs in years, as it reminisces about teenage discovery with his flinty vocals.

His vocals are exceptional, as always.  Along with Case on piano, harmonica, mellotron and guitar, he brought in Jonny Flaugher (Lady Blackbird, Pokey LaFarge) on bass, and Chris Joyner (Rickie Lee Jones, Ben Harper) on B-3 organ to fill out the record. Doctor Moan is not necessarily an easy album to get into, even for longtime Case fans. But those who give it a chance will recognize its worth.

Now streaming on:

"Barbie," director and co-writer Greta Gerwig ’s summer splash, is a dazzling achievement, both technically and in tone. It’s a visual feast that succeeds as both a gleeful escape and a battle cry. So crammed with impeccable attention to detail is "Barbie” that you couldn’t possibly catch it all in a single sitting; you’d have to devote an entire viewing just to the accessories, for example. The costume design (led by two-time Oscar winner Jacqueline Durran ) and production design (led by six-time Oscar nominee Sarah Greenwood ) are constantly clever and colorful, befitting the ever-evolving icon, and cinematographer Rodrigo Prieto (a three-time Oscar nominee) gives everything a glossy gleam. It’s not just that Gerwig & Co. have recreated a bunch of Barbies from throughout her decades-long history, outfitted them with a variety of clothing and hairstyles, and placed them in pristine dream houses. It’s that they’ve brought these figures to life with infectious energy and a knowing wink.

“Barbie” can be hysterically funny, with giant laugh-out-loud moments generously scattered throughout. They come from the insularity of an idyllic, pink-hued realm and the physical comedy of fish-out-of-water moments and choice pop culture references as the outside world increasingly encroaches. But because the marketing campaign has been so clever and so ubiquitous, you may discover that you’ve already seen a fair amount of the movie’s inspired moments, such as the “ 2001: A Space Odyssey ” homage and Ken’s self-pitying ‘80s power ballad. Such is the anticipation industrial complex.

And so you probably already know the basic plot: Barbie ( Margot Robbie ), the most popular of all the Barbies in Barbieland, begins experiencing an existential crisis. She must travel to the human world in order to understand herself and discover her true purpose. Her kinda-sorta boyfriend, Ken ( Ryan Gosling ), comes along for the ride because his own existence depends on Barbie acknowledging him. Both discover harsh truths—and make new friends –along the road to enlightenment. This bleeding of stark reality into an obsessively engineered fantasy calls to mind the revelations of “ The Truman Show ” and “The LEGO Movie,” but through a wry prism that’s specifically Gerwig’s.

This is a movie that acknowledges Barbie’s unrealistic physical proportions—and the kinds of very real body issues they can cause in young girls—while also celebrating her role as a feminist icon. After all, there was an astronaut Barbie doll (1965) before there was an actual woman in NASA’s astronaut corps (1978), an achievement “Barbie” commemorates by showing two suited-up women high-fiving each other among the stars, with Robbie’s Earth-bound Barbie saluting them with a sunny, “Yay, space!” This is also a movie in which Mattel (the doll’s manufacturer) and Warner Bros. (the film’s distributor) at least create the appearance that they’re in on the surprisingly pointed jokes at their expense. Mattel headquarters features a spacious, top-floor conference room populated solely by men with a heart-shaped, “ Dr. Strangelove ”-inspired lamp hovering over the table, yet Will Ferrell ’s CEO insists his company’s “gender-neutral bathrooms up the wazoo” are evidence of diversity. It's a neat trick.

As the film's star, Margot Robbie finds just the right balance between satire and sincerity. She’s  the  perfect casting choice; it’s impossible to imagine anyone else in the role. The blonde-haired, blue-eyed stunner completely looks the part, of course, but she also radiates the kind of unflagging, exaggerated optimism required for this heightened, candy-coated world. Later, as Barbie’s understanding expands, Robbie masterfully handles the more complicated dialogue by Gerwig and her co-writer and frequent collaborator, filmmaker Noah Baumbach . From a blinding smile to a single tear and every emotion in between, Robbie finds the ideal energy and tone throughout. Her performance is a joy to behold.

And yet, Ryan Gosling is a consistent scene-stealer as he revels in Ken’s himbo frailty. He goes from Barbie’s needy beau to a swaggering, macho doofus as he throws himself headlong into how he thinks a real man should behave. (Viewers familiar with Los Angeles geography will particularly get a kick out of the places that provide his inspiration.) Gosling sells his square-jawed character’s earnestness and gets to tap into his “All New Mickey Mouse Club” musical theater roots simultaneously. He’s a total hoot.

Within the film’s enormous ensemble—where the women are all Barbies and the men are all Kens, with a couple of exceptions—there are several standouts. They include a gonzo Kate McKinnon as the so-called “Weird Barbie” who places Robbie’s character on her path; Issa Rae as the no-nonsense President Barbie; Alexandra Shipp as a kind and capable Doctor Barbie; Simu Liu as the trash-talking Ken who torments Gosling’s Ken; and America Ferrera in a crucial role as a Mattel employee. And we can’t forget Michael Cera as the one Allan, bumbling awkwardly in a sea of hunky Kens—although everyone else forgets Allan.

But while “Barbie” is wildly ambitious in an exciting way, it’s also frustratingly uneven at times. After coming on strong with wave after wave of zippy hilarity, the film drags in the middle as it presents its more serious themes. It’s impossible not to admire how Gerwig is taking a big swing with heady notions during the mindless blockbuster season, but she offers so many that the movie sometimes stops in its propulsive tracks to explain itself to us—and then explain those points again and again. The breezy, satirical edge she established off the top was actually a more effective method of conveying her ideas about the perils of toxic masculinity and entitlement and the power of female confidence and collaboration.

One character delivers a lengthy, third-act speech about the conundrum of being a woman and the contradictory standards to which society holds us. The middle-aged mom in me was nodding throughout in agreement, feeling seen and understood, as if this person knew me and was speaking directly to me. But the longtime film critic in me found this moment a preachy momentum killer—too heavy-handed, too on-the-nose, despite its many insights.  

Still, if such a crowd-pleasing extravaganza can also offer some fodder for thoughtful conversations afterward, it’s accomplished several goals simultaneously. It’s like sneaking spinach into your kid’s brownies—or, in this case, blondies.

Available in theaters on July 21st.

2024 U.S. Open picks, odds, field: Surprising predictions by PGA golf model that's called 12 majors

Sportsline's proven model simulated the u.s. open 2024 10,000 times and revealed its surprising pga tour golf picks.

Ludvig Aberg went from runner-up in his first major to missing the cut in his second. The U.S. Open 2024 tees off from Pinehurst No. 2 in North Carolina beginning on Thursday. Aberg finished fifth in last weekend's Memorial Tournament, so can he turn that into his first major championship by defeating an elite 2024 U.S. Open field? Scottie Scheffler, the world's No. 1-ranked golfer who has finished no worse than second in seven of his last eight tournaments, is the 11-4 favorite in the latest 2024 U.S. Open odds. Bryson DeChambeau, Xander Schauffele and Rory McIlroy are 10-1 among the 2024 U.S. Open contenders.

Should you use one of these top golfers in your 2024 U.S. Open prediction or target one of the potential 2024 U.S. Open sleepers like Max Homa (28-1) or Patrick Cantlay (28-1)? Before locking in any 2024 U.S. Open picks of your own, entering PGA DFS lineups on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel, or finalizing U.S. Open props and U.S. Open Pick 6 or PrizePicks entries, be sure to see the 2024 U.S. Open golf predictions and projected leaderboard from the proven computer model at SportsLine .

Our proprietary model, built by DFS pro Mike McClure, has been red-hot since the PGA Tour resumed in June of 2020. In fact, the model is up almost $9,000 on its best bets since the restart, nailing tournament after tournament.

McClure's model correctly predicted Scheffler would finish on top of the leaderboard at the 2024 Masters, the Arnold Palmer Invitational, and The Players Championship this season. McClure also included Hideki Matsuyama in his best bets to win the 2024 Genesis Invitational. That bet hit at +9000, and for the entire tournament, McClure's best bets returned nearly $1,000.

The model also predicted Rahm would be victorious at the 2023 Sentry Tournament of Champions and The American Express. At the 2023 Masters, the model was all over Rahm's second career major victory heading into the weekend. Rahm was two strokes off the lead heading into the third round, but the model still projected him as the winner. It was the second straight Masters win for the model, which also nailed Scheffler winning in 2022.

This same model has also nailed a whopping 12 majors entering the weekend, including the last three Masters and 2024 PGA Championship. Anyone who has followed it is way up.

Now with the U.S. Open 2024 approaching, SportsLine simulated the tournament 10,000 times, and the results were surprising. Head to SportsLine now to see the projected leaderboard .

Top 2024 U.S. Open predictions 

One major surprise the model is calling for at the 2024 U.S. Open: Xander Schauffele, one of the top favorites and the most recent major winner at the PGA Championship, stumbles and barely cracks the top five. Schauffele finally picked up his first major win in 28 tries when he held off Bryson DeChambeau and Viktor Hovland at Valhalla in May.

That has vaulted him up in the PGA odds as he's now the co-second favorite in the U.S. Open 2024 odds. However, his overall track record doesn't justify that kind of status as he has just three top-five finishes in majors since 2019. He also was shaky at The Memorial over the weekend, shooting two rounds of 73 or higher to fall out of contention. The model has found better values to utilize in 2024 U.S. Open bets.  See who else to fade here .

Another surprise: Justin Thomas, a 35-1 longshot, makes a strong run at the title. He has a much better chance to win than his long odds imply, so he's a target for anyone looking for a huge payday. Thomas has made the cut in his last four tournaments and failed to put a stretch like that together over his final 14 PGA Tour events last season. This is a promising sign that the 15-time PGA Tour winner could be returning to form.

Thomas is 13th on the PGA Tour in total strokes gained, which is closer to his typical seasons than last year. Thomas was 27th in total strokes gained last year after finishing no worse than sixth in that category since the 2015-16 PGA Tour season. The 31-year-old isn't at an age where his performance should be declining and he's trending back to the top-caliber golfer he's been throughout the majority of his career. At 35-1 odds, the model loves Thomas' value to win his third major this weekend.  See who else to back here .

How to make 2024 U.S. Open picks

The model is also targeting two other golfers with odds of 20-1 or longer to make a strong run at the title. It's also targeting two triple-digit longshots in its best bets. Anyone who backs these longshots could hit it big. You can only see the model's picks here .

Who will win the 2024 U.S. Open, and which longshots will stun the golfing world?

Dr Bryce Wilkinson is a senior fellow at The New Zealand Initiative.

Eminent New Zealander, Sir Roger Douglas has renewed his case for radical changes to fiscal policy in the last three weeks. The issues are relevant to Budget 2024.

His voice should be heard. As Minister of Finance in 1984, he faced a major financial and economic mess. It took him and the next four ministers of finance to deal with that mess, but he set the path. His party took many tough decisions. They worked.

He likely thinks, along with many others, that Budget 2024 does not get to grips with the scale of the fiscal problems the country faces. It proposes a long war of attrition against head-in-the-sand spending pressures; a war it could well lose.

To be fair, Budget 2024 is a work in progress, a first step. The government is focused on the broader task – facilitating greater prosperity. The results remain to be seen.

Sir Roger’s starting propositions are that people should be able to make their own choices, that everyone should have the same chance to do well, and that a strong economy helps everyone.

Many would agree.

Sir Roger highlights the fiscal bankruptcy of New Zealand’s welfare state, which Treasury’s projections to 2060 make crystal clear.

He espouses the following principles for remedies: First, each generation should pay for itself; second, everyone should provide for themselves, as much as possible (self-reliance); third, choice and competition empower consumers.

Philosophically, this aligns well with ACT’s liberal vision, the party Sir Roger founded.

Sir Roger’s principles are a long way from the utopian concept of a cradle-to-grave welfare state, which at its best, is a socially supportive doctrine. But at its worst, it could turn New Zealand into a bludgers’ paradise. Attitudes to the expansive welfare state depend in part on one’s view of human nature.

Sir Roger’s most important remedy would replace the current national superannuation scheme with a mandatory individual savings scheme for all New Zealanders.

Government spending cuts would fund “tax reductions” of $8,620. Of that, $6,000 would go into people’s individual retirement savings accounts. The rest would buy health insurance.

Sir Roger estimates that within 50 years, 80 per cent of New Zealanders retiring would each have $2m to $4 million in their individual accounts. That is the carrot. (The number needs to be checked. It is not clear what is being assumed about future supplementary contributions, interest rates, inflation, and tax. Ignore that for now.)

The proposal does not appear to require New Zealanders to cut back on household consumption, either during their working lives or in retirement. No belt-tightening then, except for government spending. Nor does it require governments to run fiscal deficits.

The $8,620 per person is to be funded by cutting annual government spending. The proposal seems to assume that households will not materially increase their out-of-pocket spending on the cut items.

It is as if the cut spending did not benefit households. That will certainly be true for some of the cuts, but for what proportion?

The proposal also assumes $2,620 a year for health insurance will suffice. It might not for people with pre-existing conditions and predispositions.

To dig deeper, how does the scheme stack up against Sir Roger’s principles?

Surely the first generation to pay for its own retirement must also pay for the retirement of the preceding generation? That transitional problem is a tough one. It temporarily violates Sir Roger’s principle that each generation should pay for itself.

The proposal is also at odds with his self-reliance principle. The flat $8,620 represents a large within-generation subsidy for those who pay little or no income tax.

In defence of the proposal, all realistic alternatives probably also do the same. Sir Roger’s proposal has the virtue that people would feel greater ownership of their retirement provision.

Governments would have to regulate the individual retirement savings accounts, watching what is taken out and where the funds are invested. What if they are invested in a family “business”?

Net taxpayers might feel frustrated. Their taxes fund their own $8,620 per year plus the amounts paid to those who are not net taxpayers. And they get regulated to boot, they lose choice over the compulsory element of their retirement saving.

There are other worries. What would stop the next big spending government from restoring the cut spending programmes, and more? Might a future government mandate where retirement accounts are to be invested? What would prevent the $6,000 amount from being a political football every general election? What happens to those who squander their retirement savings?

At a deeper level, the scheme would entrench future cross-subsidisation at around current levels. Why do this? Surely, as productivity growth lifts incomes, the need for future cross-subsidisation to alleviate poverty should fall?

Debate over this issue should not be at the expense of the elephant in the room when it comes to a better future for New Zealanders – productivity growth.

New Zealanders who are clamouring daily for more government spending are clamouring for a higher standard of living.

Faster productivity growth is the most sustainable way of meeting their demands.

OceanGate Was Warned of Potential for ‘Catastrophic’ Problems With Titanic Mission

Experts inside and outside the company warned of potential dangers and urged the company to undergo a certification process.

By Nicholas Bogel-Burroughs ,  Jenny Gross and Anna Betts

• June 20, 2023

Years before OceanGate’s submersible craft went missing in the Atlantic Ocean with five people onboard, the company faced several warnings as it prepared for its hallmark mission of taking wealthy passengers to tour the Titanic’s wreckage.

It was January 2018, and the company’s engineering team was about to hand over the craft — named Titan — to a new crew who would be responsible for ensuring the safety of its future passengers. But experts inside and outside the company were beginning to sound alarms.

OceanGate’s director of marine operations, David Lochridge, started working on a report around that time, according to court documents, ultimately producing a scathing document in which he said the craft needed more testing and stressed “the potential dangers to passengers of the Titan as the submersible reached extreme depths.”

Two months later, OceanGate faced similarly dire calls from more than three dozen people — industry leaders, deep-sea explorers and oceanographers — who warned in a letter to its chief executive, Stockton Rush, that the company’s “experimental” approach and its decision to forgo a traditional assessment could lead to potentially “catastrophic” problems with the Titanic mission.

Now, as the international search for the craft enters another day, more is coming to light about the warnings leveled at OceanGate as the company raced to provide extreme tourism for the wealthy.

A spokesman for OceanGate declined to comment on the five-year-old critiques from Mr. Lochridge and the industry leaders. Nor did Mr. Lochridge respond to a request for comment.

Mr. Rush, the company’s chief executive, is one of the passengers on the vessel and was serving as its pilot when it went missing on Sunday, the company said on Tuesday.

An aerospace engineer and pilot, he founded the company, based in Everett, Wash., in 2009. For the past three years, he has charged up to $250,000 per person for a chance to visit the wreckage of the Titanic, which sank in 1912 on its inaugural trip from England to New York.

The critiques from Mr. Lochridge and the experts who signed the 2018 letter to Mr. Rush were focused in part on what they characterized as Mr. Rush’s refusal to have the Titan inspected and certified by one of the leading agencies that do such work.

Mr. Lochridge reported in court records that he had urged the company to do so, but that he had been told that OceanGate was “unwilling to pay” for such an assessment. After getting Mr. Lochridge’s report, the company’s leaders held a tense meeting to discuss the situation, according to court documents filed by both sides. The documents came in a lawsuit that OceanGate filed against Mr. Lochridge in 2018, accusing him of sharing confidential information outside the company.

In the documents, Mr. Lochridge reported learning that the viewport that lets passengers see outside the craft was only certified to work in depths of up to 1,300 meters.

That is far less than would be necessary for trips to the Titanic, which is nearly 4,000 meters below the ocean’s surface.

“The paying passengers would not be aware, and would not be informed, of this experimental design,” lawyers for Mr. Lochridge wrote in a court filing.

The meeting led OceanGate to fire Mr. Lochridge, according to court documents filed by both sides. OceanGate has said in court records that he was not an engineer, that he refused to accept information from the company’s engineering team and that acoustic monitoring of the hull’s strength was better than the kind of testing that Mr. Lochridge felt was necessary.

The company said in its lawsuit that it appeared Mr. Lochridge was trying to be fired. Mr. Lochridge responded by alleging wrongful termination. The legal battle ended in a settlement later in 2018.

The separate warning that OceanGate received that same year came from 38 experts in the submersible craft industry; all of them were members of the Manned Underwater Vehicles committee of the Marine Technology Society, a 60-year-old industry group that promotes, studies and teaches the public about ocean technology. The experts wrote in their letter to Mr. Rush that they had “unanimous concern” about the way the Titan had been developed, and about the planned missions to the Titanic wreckage.

The letter said that OceanGate’s marketing of the Titan had been “at minimum, misleading” because it claimed that the submersible would meet or exceed the safety standards of a risk assessment company known as DNV, even though the company had no plans to have the craft formally certified by the agency.

“Their plan of not following classification guidelines was considered very risky,” Will Kohnen, the chairman of the committee, said in an interview on Tuesday.

The industry leaders said in their letter that OceanGate should, at minimum, test its prototypes under the watch of DNV or another leading certification company.

“While this may demand additional time and expense,” the signatories wrote, “it is our unanimous view that this validation process by a third-party is a critical component in the safeguards that protect all submersible occupants.”

Mr. Kohnen said that Mr. Rush called him after reading the letter and told him that industry standards were stifling innovation.

In an unsigned 2019 blog post titled “Why Isn’t Titan Classed?,” the company made similar arguments. OceanGate said in the post that because its Titan craft was so innovative, it could take years to get it certified by the usual assessment agencies. “Bringing an outside entity up to speed on every innovation before it is put into real-world testing is anathema to rapid innovation,” the company wrote.

Another signatory of the 2018 letter, Bart Kemper, said in an interview that OceanGate had avoided having to abide by certain U.S. regulations by deploying the vessel in international waters, where Coast Guard rules did not apply.

“This letter was basically asking them to please do what the other submarines do, especially the passenger ones,” said Mr. Kemper, a forensic engineer who works on submarine designs.

Submersibles, unlike boats and other vessels, are largely unregulated, particularly when they operate in international waters, said Salvatore Mercogliano, an associate professor of maritime history at Campbell University in North Carolina.

Because the Titan is loaded onto a Canadian ship and then dropped into the North Atlantic near the Titanic, he said, it does not need to register with a country, fly a flag or follow rules that apply to many other vessels.

“It’s kind of like a boat on the back of a trailer,” Mr. Mercogliano said. “The police will ensure the trailer meets the requirements to be on the road, but they really won’t do a boat inspection.”

The Passenger Vessel Safety Act of 1993, which regulates submersibles that carry passengers and requires that they be registered with the Coast Guard, does not apply to the Titan because it does not fly an American flag or operate in American waters, he said.

Mr. Rush has spoken publicly in the past about what he viewed as regulatory red tape in the industry.

“There hasn’t been an injury in the commercial sub industry in over 35 years,” he told Smithsonian magazine in a profile published in 2019 . “It’s obscenely safe because they have all these regulations. But it also hasn’t innovated or grown — because they have all these regulations.”

In a CBS report last year, David Pogue, a former New York Times technology columnist, joined one of OceanGate’s Titanic expeditions and said the paperwork that he signed before getting onboard warned that the Titan was an “experimental vessel” that had not been “approved or certified by any regulatory body, and could result in physical injury, emotional trauma or death.”

OceanGate has made two previous expeditions to the Titanic site, in 2021 and 2022, and said in a May blog post that it “always expects new challenges” with each trip. “We’re starting our Titanic Expedition earlier than usual and have been tracking all the social media posts showing icebergs and sea ice in the area,” the post read.

The earlier trips, while largely successful, were not without problems.

In February, a couple in Florida sued Mr. Rush, saying that his company refused to refund them the $105,000 that they each paid to visit the Titanic on the Titan in 2018. The trip was postponed several times, according to the suit, in part because the company said it needed to run more tests on the Titan. The couple claimed that Mr. Rush reneged on his promise of giving them a refund and that the company instead demanded that they participate in a July 2021 voyage to the wreckage.

The lawsuit is pending and Mr. Rush has not responded to it. Court records do not list a lawyer representing him in that case.

In a court filing last year, OceanGate referenced some technical issues with the Titan during the 2021 trip.

“On the first dive to the Titanic, the submersible encountered a battery issue and had to be manually attached to its lifting platform,” the company’s legal and operational adviser, David Concannon, wrote in the document, which was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, which oversees matters having to do with the Titanic. The submersible sustained modest damage to its exterior, he wrote, leading OceanGate to cancel the mission so it could make repairs.

Still, Mr. Concannon wrote in the filing, 28 people were able to visit the Titanic wreckage on the Titan last year.

Mr. Concannon invited the federal judge who was hearing the case, Rebecca Beach Smith, to join the company for an expedition, according to a separate filing, something the judge seemed interested in doing.

“Perhaps, if another expedition occurs in the future, I will be able to do so,” the judge wrote in May, adding that after many years of hearing cases about the Titanic wreckage, “that opportunity would be quite informative and present a first ‘eyes on’ view of the wreck site by the court.”
