Our new topic this week is Crazy Eddie and the Antar family. An insane electronics company that started as part retail store, part scam. Every customer was a mark waiting to be tricked.
We get into their wild marketing and loud obnoxious commercials and strange cult following that formed around hating them.
This story is super fun and we hope you enjoy!
