The main show with Elon Musk, the two-hour interview with Musk and Trump. Got over a billion clicks. That's not views. That's not just looking at it on the screen or going past it. A billion people clicked on it. And the numbers are coming out that the average time spent listening on there was over an hour.

So what Alex is saying is based on Elon tweeting, quote, combined views of the conversation with Donald Trump and subsequent discussion by other accounts now around 1 billion. This is a very deceptive stat, and it's being used by Alex to pretend that a billion people watched this interview. The tweet that Elon is basing his statement on is from the company he owns, saying, quote, Between 7.47 p.m. and 10.47 p.m. Eastern, President Donald Trump's post received 73 million views. During this same period, there were 4 million posts about Elon Musk and President Trump's conversation on X, generating a total of 998 million views. To me, that sounds like people talking shit about your conversation got way, way more views than the conversation itself, but that's probably a bad way to market this in hindsight, especially when it was so fucking boring.

But more importantly, Alex is just lying to inflate the statistics of this incredibly boring interview.
