Hello and welcome to the Wednesday August 29th, 2018 edition of Tesla, Unofficial Tesla Podcast.

My name is Rob Maower.

Today we're talking about a series of Elon Musk tweets,

as well as a couple other small pieces of news.

I did post another episode late last night,

so you may have two episodes in your feed.

That episode was discussing Q3 production numbers. So make

sure you don't miss that one. On Tuesday, Tesla stock closed down 2.32% to $311.86,

this compared to the NasDAQ up 0.15 percent.

All right, unfortunately, we are back to talking about Elon Musk on Twitter today.

The string of tweets began with a reply from Elon on a derivative article from the New York Times interview article that we had discussed previously.

This article was titled, quote, a female founder's take on the tears of Elon Musk, end quote.

And Elon responded to the link of this article by saying, quote, for the record my voice cracked once during the New York Times article,

that's it, there were no tears, end quote.

Though Elan isn't directly stating it, this may be the first expression that we've seen from

him that would indicate

that potentially the New York Times article was portrayed in a misleading way. But

disappointingly the real story I think comes after this tweet. A couple of

people replied to Elon one of of which said, quote,

every bad thing you've read is true, but for the record he didn't cry tears.

One other thing Elon, your dedication to facts and truth would have been wonderful

if applied to that time when you called someone a pedo."
