My second esoteric history nerd fact: if you watch any C-SPAN show where Thomas Dewey Jr is a guest, it is the most awkwardly passive aggressive (on his part) thing you will ever see. They try to talk to him about his father and his governorship and 1948, and he has absolutely nothing to say. He gets clearly annoyed (then why agree to be interviewed?) and the historians are desperate to get blood from a stone and are trying so hard to make up for his slack and make it not awkward. Google it and I swear you'll agree.
