In this powerful installment of The Forbidden Frequency, host Brian Anderson takes listeners on a riveting journey through the life of Frederick McKinley Jones—the self-taught genius who revolutionized modern refrigeration and reshaped the global food and medical industries. From his humble beginnings as an orphan in Kentucky to becoming a trailblazing inventor with over 60 patents, Jones’s innovations made mobile refrigeration possible, saving countless lives and enabling the safe transport of food and medicine across the world. Yet, his name remains largely unknown.
This episode dives deep into Jones’s resilience, brilliance, and the quiet courage that propelled him into the pantheon of great American inventors. Unscripted, richly detailed, and emotionally resonant, it’s a tribute to a man whose cool inventions continue to power our everyday lives—and a call to remember those history tried to forget.
Tune in and rediscover the unsung architect of the cold chain.
