The boys couldn’t get together this week to record The WellRED podcast  because of travel schedules, but rather than have no episode or throw up an old episode, I decided to talk about one of my favorite periods in history: The Civil War. More specifically, the plot to kill Lincoln right after the war ended

 

Enjoy this hour plus stream of consciousness rant with no breaks and no notes detailing the assassination, plot to overthrow the government, the man hunt, and finally the military tribunal of the conspirators.. (Time Stamps Below!)

 

Also feel free to fact check me and tell me what I got wrong!

Trae Crowder, Corey Ryan Forrester and Drew Morgan are comedians from the south on The WellRED comedy tour. This here is the podcast they record on the road. Sometimes a friend or two will show up but more often than not its just 3 buddies arguing about everything from Politics (gross) to whether or not Dinosaurs had feathers (fun!) Join us every Wednesday and check out the archives and buy tickets to shows at WellREDcomedy.com !
