Listen "All For Me Grog"
Episode Synopsis
This is a fun old sea shanty about that magical mixture-grog. Grog was introduced to the Royal Navy in 1740. It was a mixture of rum and water. This served two purposes. One, the alcohol would kill the algae in fresh water so it was fresh water was still drinkable. Two, since sailors would often save up their rum rations and get pissed all at once, the combined water and rum ration made their binges less dangerous. It was continued to serve to the Royal Navy until 1970.
