- Unnecessarily Biased
Someone clipped your golf cart turning a corner in a factory and that makes one of the most revolutionary companies today "unsafe"? Lol. Building autonomous cars and spaceships has risk. If we avoided the risks you cite we would never have these amazing advances. You're naive to think we could without risk. You may disagree with his opinions, but you can't denigrate a pioneer who take on the "risks" 99% of people don't even think are possible. Twitter is the LEAST risky of all of his ventures. ... more

United Statesa year ago - 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.

Australia3 years ago - 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.
Apple Podcasts3Aune07United States3 years ago - 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”. Wow that’s a dramatic figure! I could hardly believe it. Then after just a moment of scrutinizing that in my head I realize that it’s because Tesla is the ONLY car manufacturer mass producing vehicles in California. Whoever looked up that data clearly knew that it was poor data to u... more
Apple Podcasts1USMCDeathTrainUnited States3 years ago - 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
