Skyrocketing inflation, staggering national debt, economic hardship, poverty, civil unrest, unsure elections. Sound familiar? As prevalent as these issues are today, they were especially so during the Whiskey Rebellion of the early 1790s, in which a tax on whiskey meant to pay off debts from the American Revolution led to violent conflict between the newly-formed American government and its citizens.

Join Zach as he explains what happened during these early years in our nation’s history in this first part of a series on things we can learn from American history about our modern political troubles.

About the Green Dragon Tavern Show

“Talking a little treason.” Veteran political operative Zach Lautenschlager and retired MLB pitcher Dennis Sarfate bring breaking news and inside commentary on American culture, politics and business. 

The Green Dragon Tavern is where Paul Revere and the Sons of Liberty gathered in Boston during the American Revolution. “Let us go to the Green Dragon and talk a little treason,” Founding Father Samuel Adams would say, tongue in cheek, according to legend. 

Today, the Green Dragon Tavern Show is where free men and women gather in defense of freedom.
