Today's episode features: Jared Eaton just giving up, Jeff Curtis stopping himself right there, and Ron Blair befriending Mark Twain! Throughout the episode, you'll hear the three of us discussing such varied topics as: the way this podcast is about spontaneous human combustion, our favorite firework memories, the Kentucky Congress of 1888, Jared's dislike of Helen Keller, Ron's universal conspiracy theory, and, occasionally, we part from our tangents to learn about a topic suggested by Deckhead Shannon Weber: Nikola Tesla. This week, Jeff shocks us all with facts about the man who many consider to be one of the greatest inventors of all time.  We look at his childhood, his education, his early work, and some of the madness of his later years.  Join us on this journey to wherever and we're sure you'll get lit with our Electric podcast!Please like/subscribe/review and leave comments below! Let us know your thoughts on Nikola Tesla, his inventions or lifestyle, if all inventors are madmen, your favorite firework memories, and if you are interested in becoming an official Deckhead! P.S. “All that was great in the past was ridiculed, condemned, combated, suppressed — only to emerge all the more powerfully, all the more triumphantly from the struggle.” ~Nikola TeslaP.P.S.
