S1, EP3 "Soda: American Fizz Goes Global"

When soda was first invented, they said it could cure anything; as Dan, Kevin, and Jim discover, soda's real contribution was introducing the world to the American way of life.

Dan Aykroyd Jim Belushi, Kevin Nealon, Jon Lovitz and George Wendt raise many glasses and talk about the history of the world and the drinks enjoyed along the way. It's the story of beer, wine, sprits, coffee, tea and soda, and how these six drinks shaped the modern world. The series was written and directed by Rob Long, a former executive producer of the long-running NBC hit series "Cheers." With Dan behind the bar serving up drinks with a generous pour, five very funny friends take a thirsty walk through time.
