Plausibly Live! - The Official Podcast Of The Dave Bowman Show

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.
