John Henry SotoHOST
They have to live underground, right? So how do you live? What do you have to do? You have to dig underground.
John Henry SotoHOST
Well, he's got the Boring Company.
John Henry SotoHOST
They're boring right now, a big tunnel right here in Nashville.
John Henry SotoHOST
So he digs, you know, he has this one in California and he's learning how to actually, you know, dig in underground.
Barbara BoydHOST
The shotgun courtship between the EU and Canada began right after Trump and Putin met in Alaska in August of 2025 and discussed joint development of the Arctic along with the Ukraine war.
Barbara BoydHOST
One thing that came out of that meeting was that President Trump would look at a proposal to use Elon Musk's Boring Company to build the Bering Strait, connecting the U.S. and Eurasian landmass.
Barbara BoydHOST
It made the globalists hysterical.
Barbara BoydHOST
That's when Mark Carney started lining up what he called the middle powers for an alliance specifically against what he calls great powers seeking dominance.
Antonia HyltonHOST
Musk's business empire, which relies heavily on government contracts, is largely based in the state.
Antonia HyltonHOST
Tesla, SpaceX, and his tunneling company, The Boring Company, are all headquartered there.
Antonia HyltonHOST
Since 2008, the aerospace venture has received more than $30 billion in federal work.
Antonia HyltonHOST
That's according to FedScout.
Roger StoneHOST
During the COVID-19 lockdown era, Musk relocated much of his business operations to Texas from California.
Roger StoneHOST
The trillionaire has self-expanded them and expanded his headquarters in Texas, including SpaceX, Starlink, Tesla, X, and the Boring Company, Neutralink, as well as XAL.
Roger StoneHOST
Hinhosa argues that Musk and his companies are receiving political favors in exchange for campaign donations, but she provides no such evidence.
Roger StoneHOST
Her campaign is largely alleged that Abbott does the bidding of his campaign.
TwitchHOST
What the hell are people texting me for? You can't have any of that stuff on the moon because, you know, you can't have it.
TwitchHOST
Also, he has a company called The Boring Company.
TwitchHOST
You know what that is? The Boring Company is a company that
MJHOST
digs giant tunnels.
MJHOST
Ah, it's...
Ben WilsonHOST
It's called SolarCity.
Ben WilsonHOST
And he starts the Boring Company, which is a tunneling company.
Ben WilsonHOST
He has this question, why are cities 3D, but roads are 2D? Again, he hates traffic because this is a guy who's always in a rush, who wants to get things done, who wants to create change and doesn't like the idea of billions of man hours being lost to traffic.
Ben WilsonHOST
And so I think he actually probably gets to it by thinking about flying cars, because that's always been the future, right? Flying cars.
Ben WilsonHOST
A flying car takes tons of energy to keep in the air.
Ben WilsonHOST
What if we just went down instead of going up? What if we created tunnels under cities to alleviate traffic? So instead of flying over traffic, you could fly under it.
Ben WilsonHOST
So that's the idea behind the boring company.
Ben WilsonHOST
And listen to how he starts the boring company.
ZacHOST
This is the Nashville International Airport Station.
ZacHOST
The Boring Company has dug about a mile of the 9.5 mile airport tunnel so far and is hoping for a spring 2027 opening at the airport station.
ZacHOST
So this is showing that if you got dropped off, you would be just 22 feet from the terminal front door.
ZacHOST
But my question is, how much would a
JesseHOST
typical customer pay?
ZacHOST
We don't know yet, but we do know that the airport authority there is charging the boring company five dollars per pickup drop off.
ZacHOST
So obviously, in order to pay for that, the boring company would have to charge a rider even more.
speaker_5VOICE_ACTOR
It's a profit deal.
Justin BarneyHOST
That includes Alabama, Florida, and Texas.
Justin BarneyHOST
The Boring Company plans to have its subterranean Tesla tunnel operational in the next quarter of next year.
Justin BarneyHOST
A key part of that project, known as the Music City Loop, is having a station to pick up and drop off passengers at the Nashville International Airport.
Justin BarneyHOST
The company, which is owned by trillionaire Elon Musk, still hasn't signed a deal that was approved eight months ago by airport officials.
Justin BarneyHOST
However, plans obtained by the Tennessean through a records request show that the proposal would have Music City Loop Teslas taking over what is currently the taxi and limousine area only about 20 feet from the doors to the terminal.
Justin BarneyHOST
Meanwhile, rideshare pickups and drop-offs are about 600 feet away.
Justin BarneyHOST
At an airport authority meeting earlier this month, CEO Doug Krulin said that if the Boring Company signs the deal, it will be paying a premium for that space.
Justin BarneyHOST
The deal would charge the company a minimum $300,000 licensing fee each year, plus $5 per car pickup and drop-off.
Stuart ButlerHOST
I don't think this is practical at all, right? But if you look at a lot of what Elon does historically, he's got a longer-term vision and a goal, right? His goal is to be multi-planetary at some point in his lifetime, with Mars being where his sights are.
Stuart ButlerHOST
So if you look at everything from Starlink, to Neuralink, to the Boring Company, to SpaceX, to batteries and solar power.
Stuart ButlerHOST
All of these are components, and now Optimus, the robots, right? All of these components are pieces of a much more complex plan to colonize Mars.
Stuart ButlerHOST
And so I wonder if this specifically was less about selling vehicles, Teslas on the road, and more about developing technology that's going to be leveraged later on.
Mike SparksHOST
And then I see Mark Potey's trying to hijack my idea.
Mike SparksHOST
I told you I got to talk to the Boring Company CEO.
Mike SparksHOST
I'm saying, let's just put it on the table and have a discussion.
Mike SparksHOST
If they can do it in Nashville, they can do it all other parts of the world.
