Author Scott Galloway’s hatred of Elon Musk made him admit something that most adults would rather take to their graves.
The academic joined Kara Swisher on the Pivot podcast, where he spent quite a bit of time complaining about Musk and his businesses. He even admitted that he once owned a Tesla, which he sold after a bout of politically motivated incontinence.
Unfortunately, that’s not a joke:
Scott Galloway says he owned a Tesla, but sold it because of Elon.
“Not before taking a giant dump in the passenger seat. True story.”
He’s gone from suggesting Elon be executed to telling stories of taking dumps in a car he owned because it was made by Elon’s company.
This is a broken, deranged and utterly toxic individual.

“This is a true story, I had a Tesla, great car, [Musk] started shitposting me on Twitter so I sold it. Not before taking a giant dump in the passenger seat. True story,” he told the laughing audience. “Not great for resale value.”
For those not interested in Galloway’s fecal misadventures, he also compared Musk to Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, who were executed after their conviction for conspiracy to commit espionage.
“We lined up the Rosenbergs against a wall. This is a traitor to the West, and he should be held to the same standards as every other traitor in the West,” he said.
X users reacted:
So he sold a car to someone after placing his feces in the front seat and this is a very serious person that we need to take very seriously because of his very serious thoughts.

I don’t think you should poop on your belongings, and if you do, you shouldn’t sell them, and if you do, we shouldn’t consider you a moderate intellectual.

He’s admitted he’s suffering from mental illness… he’s calling for executions…
I call this behavior pattern “podcaster psychosis”

Shitting in your own car because you are mad the maker’s CEO has to be one of the strangest things anyone has ever admitted.
