Höre Ding-Dong of the Week

Compared to you, the listener of this podcast, Elon Musk doesn't have a very high tax bill. He got a little defensive about this on Twitter, saying something sort of convoluted about Tesla stock prices, but he might be missing the point. Also! He's planning to accept Bitcoins in exchange for cars once again someday. AND he likes to put video games in cars. All that and Jeff Bezos's voice. Do you have any idea what he sounds like? (spoiler: pretty goofy!) You will after you listen to this episode.

A deep dive into Elon Musk's history with cryptocurrency, and an attempt to understand what he's trying to accomplish by—for instance— tweeting an acrostic that spells "CUM." music credit: Music credit:Frogs Legs Rag by Kevin MacLeod [https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/5761-frogs-legs-rag]License:http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ [http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/]

A deep dive into self-driving Teslas and how you probably shouldn't use one. It's not fun to talk about someone dying (you can read about that here [https://thehill.com/changing-america/sustainability/553848-driver-of-tesla-in-fatal-crash-posted-videos-without-hands-on]), but it's worth noting that the excuses Elon Musk and Tesla give for their fully self-driving cars causing deaths aren't very good. Also, a little bit more about company towns, in light of the company town Elon appears to be building. And a silver medalist who is flamin' hot.

Why did Elon Musk tweet "Gamestonks"? For that matter, why does he do anything? Also: Elon's into Bitcoin now, and SpaceX is being investigated by the FAA.
