| 0:00.0 | Hey everybody, you're up now we're here and today we're going to be talking about |
| 0:10.1 | the impact of the significant cryptocurrency market crash that's been happening today. |
| 0:14.7 | Summer cover has happened but the short term crash could impact Tesla's financials for |
| 0:19.1 | the second quarter so I want to talk about that. |
| 0:21.2 | Then we've also got news on Gigabril Lynn and Gigatexas, a couple of analyst updates, |
