Those M&Ms you're reaching for did not have a sweet beginning. We're going back to the early 1900s as we talk about Frank Mars' chocolate-coated ideas, Forrest Mars' unrelenting tenacity, and the unlikely story that is Mars, Inc. In this debut episode, we'll walk through Mars, Inc. history and uncover the most pivotal moments that made it possible for this secretive company to exist today. Grab a Snickers, as we talk deceit, nepotism, and espionage.
