We’ve hit 40 episodes and now it’s time to turn up the voltage.

In Episode 41 of Tesla to Mars, we go full throttle into Tesla’s biggest strategic levers yet: autonomous fleets, AI supremacy, and Elon’s Mars-first mindset. This isn’t just about cars—it’s about rewriting the rules of transport, ownership, and planetary ambition.

From robo-taxis gearing up to roll out, to AI systems that could steer entire cities, we unpack how Tesla’s tech stack is pulling ahead—and why the next 10 years might belong to the most misunderstood company on Earth.

This episode is packed with:

Tesla’s quiet push for a global robo-fleet

Autopilot vs. FSD: What’s really under the hood

How AI is shaping Tesla’s real business model

The secret sauce behind vertical integration

Elon’s master plan… and where Mars fits into it

If you’re a believer, skeptic, investor—or just Tesla-curious—this episode is your electric wake-up call.

In this episode, we dive deep into the future of Tesla, AI, energy, and the emerging age of abundance. With our usual co-hosts away, Demian & Kenny bring a thought-provoking, guest-free discussion loaded with big insights on Elon Musk’s next compensation package, Tesla's robotics strategy, global energy infrastructure, and the societal implications of AI-driven humanoid robots.

We touch on:

• Why Elon's pay package matters and how it might be structured.
• How Tesla is leading the AI and robotics revolution through Optimus and FSD.
• The macro impact of AI on energy demand and geopolitics.
• The role of major tech leaders like Satya Nadella, Jensen Huang, and ‪@Scobleizer‬  in shaping the upcoming decade.
• What humans will do in a world where robots do all the work.

In this post-earnings episode, the Tesla to Mars crew dives deep into Tesla's Q1 2025 results and the broader implications of their strategy. From a "worst quarter in years" to still generating nearly a billion in cash—how is ‪@tesla‬  maintaining discipline under pressure?

We unpack why the earnings call was framed as a “company update,” debate whether Elon’s leadership style is damaging the brand or building resilience, and highlight some overlooked nuggets about Optimus, Cybertruck demand, and manufacturing breakthroughs.

This one’s packed with insights, laughs, and an unusual amount of talk about reset buttons (yes, again). Strap in.

Welcome to Episode 34 of Tesla to Mars!

This is the first in our Robotaxi Countdown Series, where we dive deep into Tesla's upcoming autonomous future with special guest Cern Basher.

We explore the economics of Tesla’s Robotaxi network, the role of fleet operators, the dawn of abundance, and how humanoid robots fit into the picture. Expect practical insights, mind-expanding theories, and a hint of what’s coming next from the Elon empire.

🎙 Hosted by Florian, with Demian, Kees, Kenny & Cern Basher as a guest.

🚖 Countdown to Robotaxi in Austin: T-minus 60 days...

Welcome to Episode 39 of our podcast and the 4th episode of our Robotaxi Countdown series. Exploring the future of autonomous mobility, financing innovation and Tesla’s evolving AI empire.

This episode features a deep-dive conversation with Michiel, a former MisterGreen executive and financial architect behind some of the earliest FSD funding strategies. Together with Kees, Demian, and Florian, we unpack:

🚗 How MisterGreen financed 5,000+ Teslas with FSD before it was cool
📊 The economics behind leasing software like Full Self-Driving
💰 Why Robotaxis flip traditional car depreciation on its head
🏦 The “CyberFund”: a new financial vehicle for a self-driving future
🌍 How cities, investors & communities could co-own autonomous fleets

You’ll hear how FSD pricing evolved, why funding models had to get creative, and how a new class of investors and “shepherds” could reshape the mobility market. This isn’t just about cars — it’s about a new economic layer emerging from autonomy, AI, and exponential manufacturing.

In this mind-expanding episode of Tesla to Mars, we sit down with Nicolas (@RoboFlock) — entrepreneur, writer, and thought-leader in the Tesla RoboTaxi space — to explore how everyday investors, operators, and technologists can own a piece of the future.

We dive deep into what it means to be a "Robotaxi Shepherd" how decentralized fleet ownership could rival Amazon's marketplace model, and why sustainable abundance is no longer science fiction — it's already beginning.

We also unpack the philosophy behind Elon Musk's roadmap, the role of humanoid robots, and ideas from sci-fi authors like Iain M. Banks that might not be so fictional after all.

Whether you're a Tesla investor, aspiring fleet operator, or just curious about the coming age of physical AI — this episode is for you.

In this episode, we dive into Tesla’s groundbreaking Giga Casting tech and what the recent spy shots from Texas really mean. Is the Cybercab already being mass-produced or is it maybe another model? Plus, we break down the move by ‪@tesla‬ to educate the public on FSD Supervised — a huge (and bullish) shift in strategy. 

From decentralized energy to a future filled with humanoid robots, this episode hits everything: Cybercab, XAI, fertility collapse, Optimus, Tesla Energy and beyond. Don’t miss the hottest takes on last night's company update! We were in the past so hopefully we weren't too far off.
