Jill freitas brings us their love story. Noah and Christy Lincoln have been married for almost 20 years, have 6 kids and a brand new granddaughter. The couple make reenactments of famous movies and TV shows with a twist of native humor. They have over 40,000 followers on Facebook and 20,000 on TikTok. And it all started, they say, well, I was hunting for geese with their son. We had some just take the camera and start recording. Noah had Christy do different bird calls from ravens to geese to even a sexy swan. They posted the video to their Facebook page where it was shared and reshared hundreds of times. It was at that moment, Noah and Christie knew they were on to something big. And I thought, man, we could get so many people to laugh at just me and my wife. After the release of the show or reservation dogs on Hulu, native humor has been trending on social media, but Alaska humor is a little different. It usually draws from subsistence hunting, fishing, and guns, like this video. 16 years I've been married. And my wife said she don't love me anymore. All I said is you're not getting a new garden. It's the same thing. It's not. But life wasn't always a comedy for Noah. Early in his life, he says he struggled with an addiction. I was heavily into alcohol and I couldn't keep a job. After realizing what this was doing to his family, Noah swer off alcohol. But did he stay sober? I'm so happy to see you. We're always thinking God for everything. No matter your culture, laughter is universal. That is one thing Noah and Christie's supply plenty of. But they also make it a point to sprinkle in inspirational videos with messages of hope that go on to say that at the end of the day, family in faith are everything. I'm Joel frates.
