This episode looks at the numerous attempts at prohibition in Russia (paying special attention to Gorbachev's "semi-prohibition" in the 1980s) and compares them with America's infamous prohibition in the 1920s. While this episode doesn't strictly adhere to the Cold War Era, there are a lot of fun anecdotes from both Cold War superpowers and insights into the different political systems and the impact of public opinion.
