Almost everyone in the world would say “yeah, I want to be rich…” – but to be Elon rich, that’s another level. Rocketman and Tesla titan, Elon Musk, has no doubt been making an impact in the world for almost his entire life. His inventions and products, such as PayPal, Tesla, Space X, and more, have provided him the ability to do a lot of good in the world. But, on his way to the top, did he step on those around him to get there? Is he a terrible boss? Is he a bit creepy in the approach he takes to women? We’ll dive into this a whole lot more on the Elon Musk episode of AHC Podcast.

Conspiracy theories are no longer the conversation currency of weirdos and society’s outer fringes. They’ve gone mainstream. And one of the people responsible for this is the subject of our latest show.
Alex Jones started out as an oddball on Austin’s Public Access Television but ended up being a national celebrity of sorts thanks to his never-ending fountain of bullshit. Is he just a harmless nutball that sincerely believes all the insanity that he peddles? Or is there something darker to his brand of “entertainment”? Listen in and find out as we dig deep for a clearer picture of the 21st century Carnival Barker.
