In 1791, the United States taxed whiskey—and lit a fuse on its first internal rebellion. Farmers on the frontier didn’t just resist—they fought back with muskets, defiance, and corn turned to fire. President George Washington personally led an army against his own people to put down the uprising.
In this immersive episode, Deep Sleep History takes you deep into the hills of western Pennsylvania, where liberty burned slow… and strong.
Was it law? Was it tyranny? You decide.
