About this episode
The episode covers Tesla's self-driving features, nuclear energy solutions, and Elon Musk's Starlink project amidst discussions on climate politics.
On today's episode, we discuss everything from Tesla’s full self‑driving quirks to nuclear‑powered data centers, Elon Musk’s “second internet,” and the legal fight over carbon capture in Louisiana. The show opens with light Memorial Day banter and a story about Glenn’s Cybertruck “Beast” outperforming traditional trucks on rough backroads, followed by James describing how the latest FSD update slams on brakes for animals—but mysteriously “targets” turtles while expertly dodging potholes. From there, the crew pivots to climate politics and energy, criticizing Al Gore’s legacy, talking through Germany’s nuclear regrets, and explaining why micro‑nuclear generators and recycled cooling ponds may be the only way to power massive AI data centers like Meta’s without crushing local electric grids and water systems. They then zoom out to space, unpacking Musk’s plan for thousands of Starlink satellites, a satellite‑based data‑center layer in orbit, and how Starlink effectively functions as a privately owned, high‑speed “second internet” that underpins aircraft, ships, remote sensors, and more. Don't miss it!
