Spoiler: William Henry Harrison Dies in the End


History Bros is back after a months-long mental health break! We were hit with everything: OCD, ADD, ADHD, Tourette’s Syndrome, neuroses, some kind of palsy, diarrhea. Let me tidy up my desk four times in a row…and we’re good to go. Alright, hey, we’ve got a real war hero here today! President William Henry Harrison. Victor at the Battle of Tippecanoe, which was later used as a douchy jingle during your presidential campaign. Say it with me!

HB: Tippecanoe and…

WHH: Tyler too!

HB: We did it! Will, you were born in Berkeley. Must’ve been really cool. Are you a skateboarder, or?

WHH: Berkeley Plantation, Virginia.

HB: Oh. I don’t want to talk about that. That’s disappointing that you don’t skateboard.

WHH: It was a beautiful place, I…

HB: I don’t want to talk about it, Will! Plus, I’m gonna have to scrap all of these kickflip questions and Tony Hawk bits.

WHH: *Cough*

HB: Whoa, hey! Don’t. Not near me, please. Just got back from a mental health break. Don’t need to get sick, Willis.

WHH: I’m sure it’s nothing.

HB: It sounds like something.

HB: I can’t, I’m sorry, Will. Not today, please. Again, I’m sorry.  We’ll reschedule for another time. Talk to Thomas on your way out and he’ll set you up.

HB: Thomas! Can you validate Will’s parking and bring me some purell!



UPDATE* Will passed away 31 days later after this taping. RIP Tippy.
