Short Stuff: Humpty Dumpty

This episode dives into the mysteries behind the classic nursery rhyme Humpty Dumpty, exploring why we all assume he's an egg when the original rhyme never actually says that. Josh and Chuck unpack several fascinating theories about Humpty's true origins, including a wild connection to King Richard III and his famous fall at the Battle of Bosworth, a possible link to Cardinal Wolsey, and even the theory that he was actually a strong drink made from ale and brandy. The guys also reveal how Lewis Carroll basically cemented the egg interpretation in our collective imagination through his iconic illustrated version in Through the Looking Glass, forever changing how we picture this mysterious character.
