Who’s to blame for the London Beer Flood of 1814?This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) speaks with author, writer and comedian Evan Waite about the bizarre tragedy of a brewery turned lethal beer flood in the crowded streets of St. Giles, London circa 1814. Was this really an “Act of God” as the city eventually claimed or was there a little bit of Big Vat Energy going on at the time? And why was the city named after Saint Giles in the first place? Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early join the conversation. Join our Patreon!We have merch!Join our Discord!Tell us who you think is to blame at http://thealarmistpodcast.comEmail us at thealarmistpodcast@gmail.comFollow us on Instagram @thealarmistpodcastFollow us on Twitter @alarmistThe    Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/alarmist.
