Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) held a question and answer session on Facebook on Monday to field inquiries about his bid for president, but ultimately he was forced to answer quite a few bizarre questions entirely unrelated to the issues of the campaign.

The former governor addressed questions about “the Illuminist,” living with bears, and whether he is gay.

Huckabee took many of the more bizarre questions in good humor and even attempted a few puns.

Eventually, Huckabee gave up and told his supporters he was headed to a radio interview.

“I have to jump off to do some radio interviews. Sorry I couldn’t get to all of your questions. We will continue to do more of these in the future,” he wrote in an update on Facebook.

But he left a few fun questions unanswered, including one about the Jade Helm 15 conspiracy theory, an issue a few politicians have addressed.
