ShortHand: APRIL FOOLS
LISTEN TO THE EPISODE
The results of a well-meaning prank can range from the goofy, to the embarrassing, to the downright life-threatening… As the annual all-out prankfest rolls back around, we take a look at the history of April Fools’ Day, with a slightly rambling route around hoaxes, public deceptions and colossal capers.
