What part of Pennsylvania? Is he actually Cornbread, King of the Walls?????
Thanks! Maybe this is how history needs to be taught -- funny, but with the sting of truth.
What scares me about this civil war trash-talk is... blue vs red isn't exactly a matter of maps anymore. It's more like the guy buying lottery tickets and cigarettes versus the lady buying extra paper towels and cat food at the grocery -- both waiting in the same checkout line. How in the hell can you translate beliefs/prejudices into geographical areas any more?
It's all going to lead to questionnaires and committee meetings... and someone's going to lose patience and say "Fuck these pencils, let's kill each other instead!"
In the 90s, when all the wars in Serbia and the Slavic states were taking place, I thought that the conflict made as much sense as one small town (say, Churchtown) declaring war on a town three miles away (say, Terre Hill). (I used those towns because they are local and both sit atop a hill -- easy to defend. Come to think of it, the original Germans planted most of the local towns on high ground. I guess if your ancestors grew up in war-troubled Europe... you inherited the kind of DNA that set off the alarm when you saw a group of people coming down the road. I mean, it wasn't "Hot dog, company for dinner, start making biscuits" but more like, "Oh good God, Naomi, it's another damn invasion, heat the boiling oil ..."
Wow. You are brilliant. Fantastic way to present history. Kids would actually listen to Colonel Cornbread. Thank you for sharing your creativity. Spot on that nothing has changed since 1850. If only Marjorie Taylor Green would learn her place...back under the rock from which she crawled. She's a leader in the Republican Party's race to the bottom.
Very clever and creative! This was enjoyable from start to finish! Could the Time Machine take us back to the writing of the constitution? Any character would be an interesting take.
Thank you, Ross! I’ll be honest, if I were to have done this several years ago you are right... it would’ve killed me! But luckily due to the business I’m in, I have accidentally gotten pretty dern good at audio engineering! (It’s still sort of a pain, but at least I know what I’m doing!)
I definitely think I’m gonna keep this format in rotation here on PTFM!
I love it. I think Cornbread alone has hours in him, like one of those old gals on the radio who people would call for advice in the old days. There was a famous one Joyce something I believe. Cornbread has got some sage advice.
Seeing you interact with James as Joe Biden would fucking make my entire year maybe my decade going forward lol. Christ I can't even imagine how insanely funny that would be. *Fingers crossed*
Does Trae know he's related to Colonel Cornbread? 🤣
You need to make a series out of this! Wonderful.
Comedy delivered by a old-timey Southern gentleman who happens to be (for the 1860s) a liberal is *chef’s kiss
This is your best Substack yet, in my humble opinion. Love the TTT! I can’t wait until the next one.
Loved it! Please more of the TTT! I really needed this. Thank you!
Yaiss!

And we might be headed in that direction!!!
Love this, Corey and Cornbread!
So on point! You are hilarious and relevant and I just enjoy the shit out of your art! Thank you...oh and I am watching the Prime Special tonight!
❤️😘😍🥰

"Frankly son, you might wanna start going by Corey Forrester lest you rouse suspicion" I...am...dying!

Great idea!
Love it! More Cornbread please.
This was super fun. I love it. Gonna start calling you Doctor Who Dat Is
I think that’s the direction I’m gonna take this in!
Cant wait till you name your time machine bro. Like...is it a portal type(a giant potato salad bowl)? Vehicle type(an El camino?) I want to draw this.
Holy shit Corey, I feel like there's an entire podcast series in this but also conscious the editing might kill you (and Cornbread).

We need James adomian to feature on this how in an episode as Joe Biden and Corey can interview him. Lol
That’s a great idea! I’ll talk to James about it!
