Exclusive: Ellen’s audience reacts to Dec. 1 airing of Canadian beer miler

Canadian beer miler Lewis Kent will be on the Dec. 1 airing of Ellen, the same day he runs the Flotrack Beer Mile World Championships.

Canadian beer miler Lewis Kent will be on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Dec. 1, the same day the University of Western student races the Flotrack Beer Mile World Championships in Austin, Texas (the show films three days in advance).

Exclusive to Canadian Running, we have the audience reaction to Ellen announcing the beer miler’s appearance on Tuesday’s program. The feeling of excitement is mutual between the show and the Canadian running community.

Tuesday’s episode will also feature a live performance by Sia, an Australian songwriter, and marks day five of Ellen’s 12 days of Christmas giveaways.

Ellen is broadcasted across Canada on CTV with episodes airing at 10 a.m. (CTV Two) and 4 p.m. (CTV) EST.
