#5 Abraham Lincoln
Manage episode 509310437 series 3671810
In this episode, we put Abraham Lincoln’s stovepipe hat under the comedy spotlight! Everyone knows Honest Abe as the tall, bearded president who freed the slaves and delivered the Gettysburg Address, but did you know he stuffed letters, notes, and maybe even snacks in that famous hat of his? We dig into Lincoln’s quirks, oddities, and the lesser-known stories that prove even the most serious president had some moments worth chuckling about.
Of course, it wouldn’t be Belly Laughs without a few ridiculous "what ifs." What if Lincoln had social media—would he be subtweeting his rivals? Could his beard qualify as presidential facial armor? And why does every wax museum make him look like he just heard the world’s worst dad joke? From tall tales to tall top hats, this episode makes history hilarious while reminding us that even legendary leaders were still human—and sometimes, hilariously so.
