Send us a text

In this episode, Kara expands on Prohibition and how it started to affect society and all the different ways people tried to skirt around the 18th Amendment. She dives into how the Federal government tried to crack down on the sale and consumption of alcohol to how people would figure out loopholes and straight up brazen methods of procuring, producing, and transferring alcohol into America. 

What was supposed to be movement that entailed women's rights and voting to making a society of men who could be trusted and be reliable, instead the whole amendment backfired horrifically and Kara's only two episodes in! She's got two more in the works involving Prohibition.
