What Happened To Crazy Eddie's HiFi? An Occasional Halloween Special

In this episode, we explore the rise, fraud and fallout of one of the biggest retail scams that just kept getting bigger and bigger.

If you were around the area in the 80's, the signature high energy "crazy Eddie" commercials saturated the popular culture at the time. His brand of intense media blitz earned a place in the mindset of many, millions of stolen dollars and a crimial investigation.
