The Dubious Book of Famous Deeds

Comedian Alastair Forbes is here for stories about lighthouses! Specifically, stories about the destruction of said lighthouses. We’ll also hear a bit about John Smeaton, the first ever civil engineer… but mainly we’re talking lighthouses failing. You know what they say: tragedy plus time equals good podcast content.
