Ep. 433 Israel Putnam

In shocking news, we have another fun ass dude from the Revolutionary War that got skipped over by all my history teachers. Fuckin' public school. Israel Putnam went from uneducated farmer to one of the highest ranks of the Continental Army, and dude had nuts the size of cannonballs. How did he not get even a mention? Also he had a huge impact on the cigar industry almost by happenstance. Basically he's a goddamn hero. Anyway, enjoy!
