On this episode of Dave Does History, Dave Bowman joins Bill Mick Live to explore how molasses, monarchs, and mismanagement helped ignite the American Revolution. From a failed cobra bounty in colonial India to the British government’s disastrous molasses tax in the 1700s, Dave draws a straight line from economic blunders to revolutionary fervor. He unpacks the moral rigidity of King George III, the post-war proclamation that enraged the colonies, and the shift from benign neglect to imperial enforcement. It’s history with bite—and just the right amount of sugar. Join us as Liberty 250 marches on toward 1776.
