Producer Eric Falconer was enlisted by Derek Waters and Drunk History to tell the story of how the U.S. almost turned away the Statue of Liberty as a gift from France and Frederic Bartholdi. 

Taran Killam plays Bartholdi, but more importantly, Falconer is drunk and playing with Play-doh while telling the story. Watch it here.
