ep. 173 - Trillion Dollar Idiot: Elon's Back feat. Jacob Silverman

Jacob Silverman returns to the show to talk to Brother Isaac about his newly published book, Gilded Rage: Elon Musk and the Radicalization of Silicon Valley. Together they ask whether there will be any comeuppance for these rapacious techno baron criminals, how the barons of yore differ from the techno oligarchs of today and psychoanalyze the cossetted mind of a billionaire. Isaac also performs a wellness check on his good friend Alan D*rshowitz to make sure he didn't put a hole in his head after the victory of Zorhan "International Anti-Semite" Mamdani. Also be sure to check out Jacob's new four part radio show series, The Making of Musk: Understood.
