  • Not Balanced

    I’m a long term (10 years +) observer of Tesla and sustainable energy and transportation advocate. In my opinion this series about Musk and associated companies emphasises the negative aspects of events to the degree it is not balanced. I’m not saying they are factually inaccurate however they don’t acknowledge or even attempt to present positives or opposing views. Borderline hit piece.

  • Tough listen

    Pandey’s reporting isn’t as strong as other Axios staff. Her style and sound conjure up an air of high school morning announcements subtracting from the subject matter instead of anchoring and holding the audience’s attention.

  • Junk data, calls all reporting into question.

    Episode 2 of the Musk/Twitter season cites California OSHA data to make a point about teslas safety record. “Tesla has three times more safety violations in that period than all the other car manufacturers combined”.

Whoever looked up that data clearly knew that it was poor data to u... more

  • Extremely flattering and disappointing

    All our media does is say nice things about these wildly rich and irresponsible people. It would have been better to release nothing than this, poorly fact checked particularly with his background. This is genuinely really saddening, I had always looked at Axios as more objective than this. You will be worse informed after listening to this podcast

  • More emphasis on the financial components needed…

    …though compelling, too much weight was given to Musk’s personality, behaviors and thinking skills through episode 5. more
