Join master storyteller James Whittaker for a boozy jaunt through America's thirteen dry years.
From the Temperance Crusade to Repeal
"Prohibition is better than no liquor at all." — Will Rogers
In 1920, the United States made booze illegal. Americans responded by drinking anyway, in basements, back rooms, and hidden bars with a password at the door.
James tells the whole story, from the saloon wars of the late 1800s to the night Repeal poured the country a legal drink again. Washington went dry four years before the rest of the nation, and Seattle produced one of the era's most famous bootleggers, so the local chapters are as wild as the national ones.
You'll hear it all inside the Eastside's only hidden speakeasy, with period cocktails poured at the moments in the story where they belong.
Tastings of [3] Prohibition-era cocktails included in the price.
