  • THE THORPE AFFAIR SCANDAL: WHO IS TO BLAME?
    Apr 22 2025

    Who’s to blame for the Thorpe Affair Scandal?

    This week, The Alarmist (Rebecca Delgado Smith) welcomes comedian Kiki Andersen to discuss British political icon Jeremy Thorpe, his taboo love affair (at the time) and the very salacious political scandal that ensued. Was the idea of political “perfection” the problem here? Did a societal fixation on the traditional family structure have something to do with it? Or maybe good old fashioned homophobia is to blame for this one. Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early join the conversation. RIP Rinka the great dane.
