Ep #11: Thomas Edison maybe killed a guy and other enlightening Edison tales | Dark History Podcast

Hi friends, happy Thursday! When people think of American innovation, one name always comes up: Thomas Edison. But, just like everything else in our series, there’s a dark side to Tommy boy. Today, Bailey reveals a story that shines Edison in a different light, a more unflattering one filled with buried tales of greed, fame, dishonesty and, dare she say, murder. I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more dark history. You can find Dark History podcast on Apple, Spotify, wherever you listen to your podcasts, and every Thursday here on my Youtube for the visual side of things.
