Hello and welcome to the Tuesday July 31st 2018 edition of Tesla Daily on

official Tesla Podcast.

My name is Rob Maower.

Today we've got a few topics to cover, so we're just going to hop right into it.

Tesla stock on Monday finished down 2.36% in what was again a pretty tough macro

environment to $290.17 this compared to the NASDAQ down 1.39%.

First up today the Q2 earnings report is tomorrow. There will be a conference call accompanying that report of course and Galileo Russell from

Hyperchange TV is again trying to get on that call. You'll remember of course that he was on the

Q1 call and for a while now he hasn't really heard much back from Tesla Investor Relations, so he is

employing a similar strategy to what he did in Q1 and looking for Tesla shareholders to let

investor relations know that he should be back on the Q2 call.

I thought he did an awesome job on the Q1 call.

I thought he was very well prepared, obviously leading Elon to letting him ask nine

questions.

I also thought he asked a great question at the shareholder meeting on

Elon's timelines and his credibility on his forecasts. Basically, Gally gets a bunch of

questions from all of his listeners and then it goes through those and also

consults with people like myself to narrow down those questions,

figure out the best way to phrase them, etc. Last quarter we ended up talking on the phone for like an hour

the night before to really focus in those questions and try to get at the information

that we felt like everybody was looking for.

So supporting Gally being on the call does allow me to have some influence as well.
