    About Drunk History:
    Based on the popular web series, Drunk History is the liquored-up narration of our nation's history. Host Derek Waters, along with an ever-changing cast of actors and comedians, travels across the country to present the rich tales that every city in this land has to offer. Booze helps bring out the truth. It's just that sometimes the truth is a little incoherent.

      Totally agree- that level of human compassion and forgiveness is unfortunately hard to find these days. After learning about this back-story, I realize Dolly could serve as an example of ethical behavior, to women and men, in both business and in life. And the immense level of talent on top of all of this? A saint, indeed.

    Porter produced it first. Dolly took it to number 1 4x's. She didn't let Elvis record it because he wanted rights to it and she wasn't giving up her rights to it. Dolly still makes money ever time it's played. Weither it's her singing or Whitney Houston singing. She's made more than $20 million on just this song

    I am happy to see these narrators enjoy the freedom to feel at ease while they relate the anecdotes of history. While alcohol is a deadly and highly addictive drug, which kills more people each year than all other drugs, at least these narrators have the freedom to adjust their consciousness in the way they choose fit. We may feel grateful that they have not chosen to influence their consciousness in a way that that would be illegal by selecting the wrong drug, a choice for which they would be not only widely condemned, but also quite likely imprisoned. Sobriety, most people come to realize, is the best option, though its taste is not so sweet when mandated by law, under threat of the loss of one's personal Liberty.
    'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.'
