Matthew Ehret closes out his five week Occult Tesla series with the big finale: Tesla versus Einstein, and it is not the underdog story you were told in school. Using Tesla's own poem mocking Einstein as "a long haired crank," Ehret unpacks why Tesla clung to a flat, Newtonian universe while Planck, Einstein, and Riemann were busy proving space itself curves. From there the show pulls back the curtain on Isaac Newton himself, alchemist, closet Rosicrucian, and self declared heir to Babylonian magic rather than the square jawed genius of the paintings. Expect Cambridge Apostles, secret societies masquerading as scientific academies, and a hard look at how "empiricism" became less a method and more a lattice built to keep real discovery boxed in. It is dense, it is contrarian, and it asks who actually gets to define what counts as science. Tech hiccups and all, Ehret gets his slides up eventually.
