Listen to this episode and forward it to five friends in the next five minutes or... you know... else! Adam guides Erin through the ancient history of chain letters - and that one time they became a mini version of the stock market.

We'll be taking a quick break after these first ten episodes to enjoy the holidays with family, catch up on research, and invest in a slightly improved audio setup. In the meantime, if you have a topic you'd like to hear about on future Fad Files episodes, send it our way at [email protected] or @fadfilespod on instagram.

Thanks for listening and see you next season!
