Elon's Millions: Buying Twitter - DTNS 4315 Extended (Patreon)

Will Elon’s decision to pull-out of the deal to acquire Twitter mean the two next face each other in court? Are smart thermostats bad for the power grid? And the NY Times reports that Jony Ive’s LoveFrom design firm and Apple have parted ways.

The Roger Chang Foundation - GDI 4315 starts at 33:56

The Elon Musk and Twitter conversation continues. Do you miss Jack? Do the bots really matter? Roger wants to take being a billionaire for a “Live With It”. Scott will be the 1%. Have you tried Miami Musk yet?  Roger thinks overly salty food means the chef smokes. Toothpaste talk takes over. How much is your Tether worth?


Starring Tom Merritt, Scott Johnson, Roger Chang, Joe.
