Down Periscope, Up Periscope: Tales of Submarine Tours

Down Periscope, Up Periscope: Tales of Submarine Tours

The unofficial podcast of the tour guides on USS Blueback (SS-581). Join us for an adventure beneath the waves on the U.S. Navy's last diesel-electric attack submarine; a permanent exhibit at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI). We discuss the tours, technology, and history of Blueback and submarine history, in general. Everything from the lighthearted, the serious, and the salty.
