POP! FIZZ! CLINK! Join us as we uncork the bubbly history of Champagne! As we drink we'll find that exploding bottles can scare off monks, the English really loved their sugar, and slightly turning thousands of bottles every day can be quite a riddle. The Romans may have spread it to France, but it was Dom Perignon who perfected it. We also have a special guest appearance from Mr. Jonah's Dad.
