In this episode, Jay is joined by Cypher, the creator of The Cynical Historian YouTube channel, to debunk some of the biggest myths surrounding U.S. presidents. From George Washington to Abraham Lincoln, Cypher unpacks the truth behind legendary misconceptions that have shaped the American view of the presidency.
They explore myths like Washington’s supposed uncontroversial presidency, Lincoln’s role as the “Great Emancipator,” and the common belief that debates like the 1960 Kennedy-Nixon face-off changed election outcomes. Cypher also sheds light on how myths about presidential power, control over the economy, and war decisions have been misunderstood over time.
Tune in for a candid, eye-opening discussion about history’s messy truths and the stories we tell about those who’ve held the highest office in the land
