Welcome to The Deposition, a dramatic reading of the public record transcript of Elon Musk’s deposition in full. We promise: this is really real, a real thing that happened in a real lawsuit that exists in real life, word for word – with the addition of some actor editorialization.

In this episode, we hear Bankston try to get into the mind of Musk, Spiro try some different riffs on objecting to form, and Musk say that a donut is not a bagel. ALLEGEDLY!
