Intro

On this week’s episode, Mookie reveals the unexpected origins of McDonald’s while Erica recounts the extraordinary life of Sarah Rector.

Hot Dog!

McDonald’s is known for being a global icon of culinary comfort but not many people know how McDonald’s became the burger giant that it is. Before the Big Mac there was… the Big Hot Dog! 

 Sarah Rector’s Gusher!

11-year-old Sarah Rector’s life changed forever when the land she received from the government wasn’t as worthless as they thought. Thanks to a series of fortunate events, she became the richest girl in the world.
