Matt Uses His History Degree

Wow, another episode, heroic. Anyways, this is on the Erie Railroad War, features a lot of hilariously expensive gilded age financial flim-flams, scams, double-backs, cons, swindles, bunkos, hoaxes over control of a railroad that takes you to Niagara Falls. Ties in nicely with recent crypto scams, Elon Musk, and other SEO terms (supreme court). I forgot how to log into the website for awhile to upload this.
