Tesla to Mars - The Podcast

In this our 31st episode, we dive deep into Doge (DOGE.gov) – the U.S. government's radical transparency project that has already uncovered $1 trillion in waste and fraud.

We analyze the shocking inefficiencies exposed by Doge, from $1,000 per plant watering contracts to unused buildings costing billions in rent. We discuss how AI is revolutionizing financial oversight, the impact of crony capitalism in government spending and what Elon Musk’s transparency initiative could mean for global governance. 

This episode is packed with insights, humor, and some wild live discoveries as we explore the Doge database in real time. Plus, guest interruptions, family cameos and some brutal debates on waste vs. fraud.
