I spent 5 minutes learning about his apartheid supporting parents, the emerald mine, and how he never actually accomplished anything but just lied about it when buying companies.
Oh an watched 10 seconds of his Nazi salute. Those 5 minutes and 10 seconds were enough.
Right? Read something here maybe, about buying leveled game characters so he could live play to an audience in an attempt to…I don’t even know…indirectly buy peers and conversation?
Which ties in with all that BoB stuff on him having zero friends.
Yeah at least with behind the bastards you can have a morbid laugh along and just how utterly shitty the man has always been. And those of us that have followed the show have known for years and more what a horrible person he is. A serious dry documentary would just be brutal. But necessary for the poorly adjusted normal people.
They were separate podcasts spread across commutes. But yea. I listened to the Theil and Zuckerberg casts too. Then, I stopped listening at all. I wonder why.
No such thing as a fish - Award-winning podcast from the QI offices in which the writers of the hit BBC show discuss the best things they’ve found out this week. Hosted by Dan Schreiber (@schreiberland) with James Harkin (@jamesharkin), Andrew Hunter Murray (@andrewhunterm), and Anna Ptaszynski (#GetAnnaOnTwitter)
The bad spot - Couldn’t find it
The constant - A podcast about exactly what it says it is: examining the bad ideas, mistakes and accidents that misshaped our world.
Happy to helpa fellow geek branch out! Happy rabbit-holing! 🖖🏼
Also, IMHO, the first campaign of TBS is the best, though the others have their own charm —maybe just not my preferred kind? Anyhow, they differ widely in theme and scope, so I’m sure you’ll find something that engages if not inspires you!
I listened to 4ish hrs of Behind the Bastards on musk. No way am I doing that again, in any form.

The reverend doctor does make horrific monsters far more palatable to hear about.
Four hours?!🤮
Hell, I’m surprised anyone can stomach him for that long (marriages? how?), let alone sitting still the whole time.
Did someone strap you in first, A Clockwork Orange style? 😅

There are so many podcasts out there that’re worthy of your perusal that don’t increase one’s justifiable ennui.
Just off the top of my head:
My sincere apologies, I completely forgot to go back later and add links, but good on ya for doing what so many won’t! 🤘🏼
LMK if this works for The Bad Spot, though the YT channel’s here, if that’s better for ya.
Oh, and I forgot, it’s The Dollop, so give this a listen.
Thank you!!

I had to stop listening entirely as well. That show definitely had and effect on my mental well-being.
After reading the article, it’s not even him.
It’s a CGI render since musk and the director don’t get along at all.
So, more human? 😅
