Did you know the person who paved the way for the invention of Wifi was one of the most controversial actresses in Hollywood? I know. Random! Today’s episode is about the one, the only, Hedy Lamarr. It turns out, we owe Hedy A LOT. Without her advancements in film and technology, the world would be a VERY different place… She came (onscreen), she saw (war), she conquered (Hollywood). And for all that, thanks, Hedy! I appreciate you for coming by, and tune in next week for more Dark History. Want some cool Bailey Merch?
