About this listen

In this episode of *Amps vs. Volts: The Power Behind the Current*, host Ezra Volt dismantles the dangerous oversimplification that "it's not volts, it's amps that kill you" — revealing why both voltage and current are inseparable partners in electrical safety, and how understanding their relationship through resistance can literally save your life. From static shocks that carry tens of thousands of volts without harm, to the deadly reality of wet skin and household current, Ezra guides listeners through the physics of electrocution, the life-saving engineering behind GFCIs and grounding systems, and practical steps to stay safe around the invisible force that powers modern civilization.
