The Rogue Historian

Welcome to The Rogue Historian — where history isn’t boring, it’s unhinged.

I uncover the wild, funny, and forgotten stories your textbooks skipped. From Founding Fathers chaos to Santa’s mythological multiverse, from Thanksgiving’s real origins to outrageous frontier laws, this channel dives into the untold, unbelievable, and absolutely true moments from American and world history.

If you love fast, funny historical facts, weird origins, myth-busting, and deep dives into the past, you’re in the right place.

History is full of surprises — I just show you the ones worth laughing or learning about.

I've had a lot of requests for future long form videos. I'm going to just have a good old democratic vote and let the majority decide the next video!

History Question of the Day: Who wins in a presidential fistfight?

Alright, my fellow historians — you get to choose my next non-Christmas video.

And we’re doing it Thunderdome style.

Who wins in an absolutely unhinged historical cage match — and who should I cover next?

Andrew “Old Hickory” Jackson
Teddy “Bull Moose” Roosevelt
George “General of Generals” Washington

Adding the wildcard fighter Abraham Lincoln!

👇 Choose your champion!

No matter who wins this brawl…
👉 I’ll make a full breakdown video of the fight — strengths, weaknesses, wild stories, and who I think comes out on top.
