## Resource

If man's best friend is a dog, his second best friend might just be a beer. But there was a time in our history when the government tried to cut the bond... prohibition! And while most have heard of prohibition, few truly appreciation it's unique place in American history. The only amendment in US history to ever be taken back, how we banned it and what it did to us is still misunderstood. Grab a drink and enjoy as we get to how American became dry... and wet in such a short period of time. 00:00:00 Catch-Up 00:20:54 Hold My Beer 00:26:10 Early Days of Advocacy 00:40:57 Am I better than you?
