Queer as a $5 bill? I had so much fun talking about Lincoln's queer possibility with the thoughtful hosts of Q & Abe, the podcast from Lincoln's Cottage.

Listen to this episode from Q & Abe on Spotify. For this episode, we're answering a question we've gotten from young people curious about Lincoln's relationships. Along the way we talk about gossipy Springfield, Illinois in the 1840s, Lincoln's close friend Joshua Speed, the invention of the term "straight," and how museums can tell queer stories.
