Tesla Full Self-Driving Recall, Elon Musk Criticism
Federal investigators issued a recall for Tesla's "Full Self-Driving" beta software due to safety concerns at intersections and stop signs. Elon Musk objected to the term "recall," noting the fix is a simple over-the-air software update. The hosts suggest that media scrutiny of Tesla has intensified since Musk's acquisition of Twitter and his public shift toward Republican politics.
