Transcript 0:00 Speaker 00 Hey, Ed Helms here, host of Snafu, my podcast about history's greatest screw-ups. This fall, I'm coming back for season four, and I'm bringing you even more snafus than ever. That's right, every single episode will be a brand-new crazy mishap from history. From the Donner Party to the Great Molasses Flood, and yes, that is a real thing, I'll be covering the most head-scratching moments from throughout humanity's very messy past. And this season, I'm dragging along some of my funniest and most interesting friends for the ride. You want to make sure it's easy to catch those fish, so you feel good about yourself.
