From Mailing Babies to Mailing Bombs: The Postal Service Did What???
29,605Hi friends, happy Thursday!
Welcome to the Dark History podcast. What’s the craziest thing you’ve mailed? I feel like I remember a time in grade school where everyone was mailing potatoes. Anyone else? No? Just Me? Cool. Anyways, what I’m saying is throughout history, people have sent some crazy things in the mail. And sometimes, the things they sent were…dangerous. On today’s episode we’re talking all about the history of the Post Office. All the twists and turns. And how people got away with mailing….babies.
I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History.
