Just billionaire things: Elon Musk wants to buy Twitter

Whether you consider Elon an eccentric, and unreliable leader, or an unrelenting champion of free speech, he’s achieved an extraordinary amount. He’s an entrepreneur, investor, and is currently the world’s richest man. He's busy too - he's the founder, and CEO of SpaceX; & Tesla, founder of The Boring Company; and co-founder of Neuralink and OpenAI. So when we read that he’d made an offer to buy Twitter - the social media company where he’s amassed 83 million followers - we had to talk about it. Today Sascha and Alec answer the question - why does Elon Musk want to buy Twitter?
