#18 - 2018-2019 - I Can See Michigan From Here

In 2018 Jeremy moves his family back to Ohio to run a brand new Tesla region, the Great Lakes. Two months later they pull into a church parking lot at 10:15 for a 10:30 service that started at 10. They search for any church nearby that starts at 10:30. The pastor of that one is Terry. This is the episode where the two hosts tell how they met, each from his own side of the front door. Then Tesla, 2018 and 2019. Riding in Model 3 number 29, a few weeks after the first ones rolled out. Opening Richmond with the governor of Virginia in the room. Meeting Olympic champion Otis Davis at a career day, and the book Davis asked Jeremy to write. Tesla can't operate in Michigan, so Jeremy finds a building in Toledo, right on the state line. Months of "we can't." Then, on Elon's regular Friday call, he says he's standing in the parking lot and can see the Michigan border. The answer: open it in 30 days. Then: every region opens one in 30 days. The same month he's handed the Southeast too: Memphis, Pearl, Mississippi, a new manager from Home Depot laying the floors himself, and the first thing that manager ever asked him for. "Yep, approved." Plus collision repair in the early days, leading by walking around, family phone calls on speaker for hours, and a woman at a Cracker Barrel charging stop who is sure he's Murr from Impractical Jokers. Also this week: a Roadster in space, God's Plan, Black Panther, the Browns finally win, Survivor's hatchet, Three's Company, Sally the tortoise's new home, a bingo winner, a book club out West, and Mira, pronounced right this time.
