NYU professor, podcaster says he 'took a giant dump' in his Tesla before selling it due to anger at Elon Musk

NYU professor and host of the "Pivot" podcast Scott Galloway claimed before a live audience on Sunday that he defecated in his own Tesla vehicle before selling it, describing the act as personal payback after tech billionaire and Tesla CEO Elon Musk repeatedly targeted him online.

"As a true story. I had a Tesla. Great car. He started sh---posting me on Twitter, so I sold it," Galloway told co-host Kara Swisher during a live taping at the Orpheum Theatre in Los Angeles. "Not before taking a giant dump in the passenger seat. True story. Not good for resale value."

Fox News Digital reached out to Elon Musk and Tesla for comment.

The admission came during a discussion about the midterm results, Musk's political power and reports that Tesla plans to wind down Cybertruck production in Texas in mid-2027. Despite Democrats dominating the elections, Swisher and Galloway lamented how much political influence and power Musk continues to have.

Musk, once a darling of liberal commentators for popularizing electric vehicles, has faced mounting scrutiny from the left since purchasing Twitter, now X, becoming an outspoken conservative supporter and emerging as a political megadonor.

"We have become out of control in terms of one man — a private citizen's ability to control the government and make decisions that only elected officials should be allowed to make," Galloway said. 

Swisher agreed, calling Musk "a cartoon villain."

"No individual should have — and he is not elected. He is unaccountable, and he should work on his — not the cyber truck obviously, because that was a sh---- product," Swisher said. "But he should work on those kind of things and not have this — it would be a really good thing for him and for the rest of us for him to go away for a while, get off Twitter and stop talking."

On election day, Galloway had laid out an alternate history scenario on his "Prof G Podcast" to draw a comparison between Musk's actions and a hypothetical World War II scenario involving aviator Charles Lindbergh. Galloway was referring to reports that SpaceX restricted Starlink satellite internet speeds in Ukraine last month, reportedly disrupting Ukrainian military operations during the country's war with Russia. He made the case that Musk should be treated like traitors who had collaborated with a foreign enemy.

"My question is, or my thesis is, we took the Rosenbergs and put them up against a wall and executed them for being traitors. And I realize this is an incendiary statement, but I'll make it, and I believe it. I think Elon Musk is a traitor to the West," he said.

Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were executed in 1953 after being convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage for the Soviet Union in a case involving U.S. atomic secrets.

Musk explained the Starlink controversy by saying Ukraine was using it in violation of the service's restrictions, saying, "Using Starlink, a civilian commercial service, for offensive drone strikes to kill people has never been allowed, nor should it be."
