crisscrossing Science Episode 011: Shock the Monkey

In this episode, Chris Gaiser (professor of biology at Linfield College) and Mike Crosser (professor of physics at Linfield College) discuss the differences between AC and DC voltage, as well as the historical "debate" about which is better to use. This debate involved Nikola Tesla and George Westinghouse (Team AC) against Thomas Edison and a bunch of dead dogs and cats (Team DC).
