The 4 Most Literally Insane Statements by U.S. Presidents - Obsessive Pop Culture Disorder

[Music] hi Internet I'm Daniel Bryan and welcome to another episode obsessive pop culture sort of the show where I talk about things because it would be dumb if I didn't and just sad here see today's episode is look if you know me and my work you knew this was coming I'm Dan I write stuff about presidents I write stuff about presidents on cracks I write stuff about presidents in books by my buck by my buck by my buck it was only a matter of time before I whipped out my presidential obsession on camera and speaking of whipping things out anyone who has opened up a history book knows that President Lyndon Johnson was by a wide margin our most dick waving his president with Kennedy in a distant second place followed closely by Cleveland believe it or not Grover Cleveland Johnson was known to have challenged people to literal dick-measuring contest so it's not surprising that on August 9th 1964 President Johnson called Joe Hager the head of the Haggar slacks company a special order a pair of pants during that call LBJ was charming and folksy and talked about his dick that is but another thing the crotch down were you nuts hanging it's always a little too tight so when you make them up give me a eat that I can read out there because they cut me just like right now pants are in general not a difficult concept to grasp and Johnson is on the phone with the pants making professional a literal pants expert and he still feels like he needs to explain where the crotch is via its relationship to his nutsack the man knows more about pants than most people mr. president he doesn't need you described where your balls are like I've got a folksy penis GPS head north from butthole less than a minute later this happens believe me you never did have much margin that [ __ ] if he can't leave me about it anij from the for the zipper in under my back my bum hole he burped and without freaking conversational stride continue to charting the geography of his junk by taking us on a journey into his but this is the best thing that's ever happened to me Braco has two distinct voices he switches between regular dude and President Obama when he's President Obama his voice is professorial authoritative lester freamon esque regular dude is charming quick-witted and calls Kanye West's jackass he's a jackass on the audiobook of President Obama's memoir dreams of my father those two voices smashed together when the president reads lines once spoken by his highly portable high school buddy Rob aka Keith kakegawa here in Kies lines as spoken by President Obama it's like hearing a court stenographer read wu-tang Larry's way my [ __ ] buy your own damn fries it's like he's reading Denzel Washington's dialogue from training day at a TED talk now you know that guy ain't [ __ ] sorry as mother got nothing on me right nothing it's like he's doing an impression of a white person doing an impression of a black person who has never met a black person so what happens when we go out to a party with some sisters huh what happens I tell you what happens blam they Ana's like there's no tomorrow high school chicks university chicks it don't matter blam we sure can Ronald Reagan had wit and charm pouring out his ass you know his first words were to his wife after he was shot in an assassination attempt honey I forgot to duck BAM that line was so smooth hey what I'm a lifetime supply of Nancy Reagan sex a feat accomplished by only one other man unfortunately one of Reagan's jokes almost caused World War 3 which is globally known among comedians as the opposite of laughter on August 11th 1984 President Reagan was getting ready to record his weekly radio address for NPR here's the opening line that he was supposed to read my fellow Americans I'm pleased to tell you that today I signed legislation that will allow student religious groups to begin enjoying all right they've too long been denied the freedom to meet in public high schools during school hours just as other student groups are allowed to do it's a line that yes could obviously have benefited from some joke punch-ups before he can record he needed to do a sound check so an attempted to parody that opening line and the Cold War and the thought of everyone in the world getting blown to [ __ ] like Sarah Connor and that one scene from Terminator 2 Reagan decided now was a good time to make a joke about nuclear war my fellow Americans I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that without law Russia forever we beginning in five minutes that audio was leaked to the press because of course which causes the Soviets to go on high alert because of course well then they read a transcript of the actual address and calm down I mean obviously look outside it how not blown up everything is Richard Nixon's too dead to tell us why he filled the White House with voice-activated microphones that recorded everything he said but his voice lives on in the form of the tapes he left behind during one segment of tape Nixon his chief domestic invited John Ehrlichman and his chief of staff Bob Haldeman had a jolly conversation about how Hollywood and the gays were destroying the traditional American value of penis in vagina or as it's known colloquially among presidential scholars Cleveland ding it's all pretty depressing until Nixon's crazy chain of logic landed him on the subject of gay fashion designers have infiltrated every level of the fashion industry and have orchestrated a massive widespread plot to make women's clothing look awful at some kind of hate crime for the purposes of question mark question mark question mark dot dot dot to that insanity Ehrlichman serves up a two-word counterpoint [Music] and it's accepted Nixon says my pop-pop gang men are making women locating us on purpose and Ehrlichman says hot pants and Nexes yeah that's how conversations flow logically this is an improv game where you're not allowed to have the same conversation I also love how Nixon delivers Jesus Christ like he's peeling his sunglasses off his face because like we breed Raptors segwaying away from Jesus Christ hot pants as gracefully as heat segue into it Nixon moves on to explain that his administration doesn't have to work too hard to be good because Richard Nixon your face is scrotal me any more to say but it's sort of hard to build momentum once scrotum meat get strapped so let's just call this episode over join me next time when my topic will be weirdest presidential moments caught on audio that's what we just did what the are we supposed to do today oh [ __ ] really well that looks interesting we're never gonna find out about that now we're getting that story play my favorite song DJ my mom [Music] hey thanks for watching that video you
