We're back from our summer break with a story that was 100% tailor made for our dumb little podcast and it's a mystery why we didn't cover it sooner. In 1919 the United States made the manufacture, transport, and sale of alcohol illegal on the federal level and everyone responded to that by finding new and excited ways to murder their brain cells with booze. In this episode we're taking a look at the movement that led to the outlawing of liquor and the totally predictable way American's reacted to being told what to do.  It's a fun one so sneak a drink or two of hooch, settle in, and enjoy this episode of Hundred Proof History titled Prohibition: Potent Potables and Politics!
