Week two of our Ma Mandelbaum Series. This week Ma is starting her own shop and really working to train an army of thieves. We talk about tricky diamond heists, and a how too handbook she created to teach new thieves how to steal. Then we get into how she constructed her shop to help her do all of her clandestine activities. Hope you enjoy!

We did have a few technical difficulties this week and lost a little bit of data. Sorry for the glitchiness working to fix!
