NIKOLA TESLA: Master of Lightning, Lover of Pigeons

Do you use electricity? How about a smart phone?  Did you know that almost all modern technology came from the mind of a single man?
In our first biography episode, we delve into the extraordinary life and mind of the original mad scientist, Nikola Tesla. A fascinating visionary who crafted over 300 patents and some of his inventions were easily a century ahead of their time. These include the electric car, the remote control drone, and even an earthquake machine.
But, in typical genius-fashion, his work and his ambitions were misunderstood and even publicly smeared by his chief rival, legendary inventor, Thomas Edison.
But why does a man with such long lasting effects on countless lives remain under the historical radar? Why is this man's immense technological contributions to society not recognized? And were all of his inventions made public?

You decide.
