EP 61: The San Francisco Earthquake of 1906

We're back for Season Seven! And as tradition dictates, the first episode of each season is a Leah Takeover Episode! 

This week on Hashtag History, Leah takes a deep dive into the San Francisco Earthquake of 1906, an infamous disaster that struck the coast of Northern California on an early April morning in 1906 with an estimated magnitude of 7.9. It was felt as far north as Eureka, California (some even say as far north as Oregon) and as far south as Salinas, California, sparking devastating fires and causing over 3,000 deaths. Tune in to hear the legacy of this devastating earthquake...and maybe even pick up a boozy cake recipe along the way!
