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!
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 License: 
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), but it's worth noting that the excuses Elon Musk and Tesla give for their fully self-driving c

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.  Music credit: Frogs Legs Rag by Kevin MacLeod License: http://creativecommons.org/licen
Elon Musk fired Tesla's public relations department in October, and replaced it with saying whatever he wants all the time on Twitter. But now he's hiring people to deal to relate, if you will, with members of what you might call "the public" o

Elon Musk doesn't care for pronouns, one of the more common parts of speech. Seems like it must make it hard for him to talk. LOL. Music credit: Frogs Legs Rag by Kevin MacLeod License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
An LA Times story tells the story of an internal whistleblower at Tesla who just wanted to improve the products she was working on, but got fired, and now lives in a personal hell of her former employer’s making. The silver medal recipient is t
Elon Musk has won an award this week. No, not The Golden Bell of the Ding-Dong, the award he wins every week here on our show, but an award from a German media conglomerate called Axel Springer. It's called The Axel Springer Award, and if you b
Elon Musk elaborated a little about his Mars plans, and they sound less good than ever. Also, he had COVID during a momentous week for his company, which is kinda funny. The silver medal recipient is once again Rudy Giuliani.  Music credit: Fro
Elon Musk took a COVID test, and then three more. Does he have the potentially lethal "COVID Fever" everyone's been talking about lately? Probably! Elon was also the subject of a Vanity Fair profile that was less hard-hitting than the author li
It's election week. Joe Biden looks to be the winner, but Elon Musk was elected to four more years of being Ding-Dong of the Week! He got bullied online, and then whined that the person making fun of him was a "chad," and was celebrated by the
In the fine print of the terms of service for Elon Musk's new internet service provider, SpaceX revealed Elon's plan for a lawless corporate utopia on Mars. It sounds bad in our opinion! Music credit: Frogs Legs Rag by Kevin MacLeod License: ht
It’s a big week for ding-dongs in America, and many, many ding-dongs show up on this episode. But the winner is Elon Musk. Elon has announced that Teslas can now drive themselves, except for a very, very, very long disclaimer. Also, he loves na
This week, Elon Musk wasn't very funny, even though he tried to be funny. Also he's contributing a lot to the US war machine. Music credit: Frogs Legs Rag by Kevin MacLeod License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/
This week the Ding-Dong is Elon Reeve Musk, a famous business tycoon from South Africa who is building a company town in Texas on top of an existing community. As you might expect, he'd like the people there to leave. He also doesn't seem to be
Tech billionaire Elon Musk talked to Kara Swisher for a long time this week about life, the universe and everything. The conversation touched on AI, cars, Trump, and Musk's admiration for noted philosopher Douglas Adams.  Music credit: Frogs Le
This week's Ding-Dong is billionaire Elon Musk! Elon's announcement of new battery technology was a pretty big letdown, and the idea to Tom Cruise in space (which, to be fair, probably wan't his idea) is maybe not great. Music credit: Frogs Leg
It's Elon Musk again! He uses news events to make headlines by promising things that never materialize—in this case it was the West Coast wildfires. And he doesn't seem to have a good rebuttal to a tweet from Bernie Sanders, although he does ha
Elon Musk scores the rare "Double Ding-Dong" with his second appearance in a row. How's he treating his employees? It's a matter of some controversy. Is he giving away his money? That's also up for debate. And who is today's runner-up? Listen a
Episode #1 In our inaugural episode the Ding-Dong of the week is someone you may have heard of: Elon Musk, the famous tech billionaire known for having a public persona many would call "a little quirky." Elon goofed up the rollout of a brain ga
