Josh and Mark continue their series on the forgotten by looking at one of Henry Ford's biggest failures, Fordlandia. With a desire to control the automobile market, he was looking for a creative solution to the ever-rising cost of rubber. Located in the heart of the Amazon rainforest, Ford tried to create a utopia of capitalism and his way of life. From the tough environment to the clashing of the workers, this failed experiment was dead from the moment it was dreamt. Listen in to see what happened, and what it is now. Wisdom of the week from Henry Ford. APES & APHUG come together once again.
