Bing Bang Bonus: US Presidents Trivia

Presidents Trivia Alright! This episode is all about Presidents from the United States trivia. We are grateful to have Major Data on this episode.

Prior to Barron Trump, who was the last boy to live at the White House?

Contrary to popular belief, George Washington's false teeth were not made out of wood but in fact were made out of other materials including teeth from slaves, brass, gold and ivory from which large African animal? George Washington posthumously was promoted to "General of the Armies of the United States", effectively a 6 star general, ranking him above all military officers for eternity. Which future US president promoted him to this rank? Twelve presidents have held the rank of general in the military and other held officer ranks, including James K Polk and Millard Filmore making the rank of Major. Who is the only president with military service to never become an officer and is the last president to serve in the War of 1812? Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump are the only presidents with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Trump is honored with his star for his role in producing what event from 1996 to 2015?

In 1852, Franklin Pierce and William King won President and Vice President respectively. Unfortunately, shortly after King contracted tuberculosis and traveled out of the US to try to regain his health, making him the only vice president to take the oath of office on foreign soil. Which carribean country whose current president is Miguel Diaz-Canel did he take the oath in? Which president was featured on the cover of Cosmopolitan in an illustration by artist Bradshaw Crandell featuring him in his Navy uniform planting a kiss on his then model girlfriend Phyllis Brown?
