On each episode of Wondery’s podcast The Big Flop, comedians join host Misha Brown to chronicle one of the biggest pop-culture fails of all time and try to answer the age-old question: who thought THIS was a good idea?

The Hamburglar was just a mascot, but Jerome Jacobson was the real deal — a McDonald's security chief who pulled off the ultimate inside job. While millions of Americans peeled game pieces hoping for a miracle, this master manipulator was turning Big Macs into big bucks, orchestrating a multi-million dollar fraud. Discover the supersized story of how one man's greed turned America's favorite promotion into the biggest McFlop in fast-food history.

This is just a preview of The Big Flop. Listen to The Big Flop wherever you get your podcasts, or at wondery.fm/thebigflop_armchair.
