Welcome back to the Modern Electrician Podcast, where we talk about the lives and stories of people in the trades. This episode is a fun one for any of your electrical history buffs out there, like myself. I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Robert Bradley, CEO and founder of Institute for Energy Research, an economic think tank that provides a voice to Free Market Energy Research. He’s also an electrical historian and author of several books on the topic of energy history. In today’s conversation, we chat a bit about energy economics but we mostly take a deep dive into the life of one of the electrical industries most forgotten-about business magnates of the early 1900s, Samuel Insull.
