EPISODE 62 | Nikola Tesla: The Monster from Venus (Big 'Uns 6)

Balkan genius inventor Nikola Tesla shows up all over the place in the conspirasphere, and the stories about him are legion. He was really the father of electricity but his rival Thomas Edison screwed him out of his due, he was assassinated, he never died, his clones live on, he built a death day, and an earthquake machine and oh, so many more. Tesla is one of the Big 'Uns.
