Is The Vegas Loop Getting Stupider?

Despite years of reporting on safety oversights, environmental mishaps, and dodgy regulation, the Boring Co. doesn't seem to be slowing down: Now, the company wants approval from the Nevada Transportation Authority to let their Teslas use city streets (essentially operating as taxis) — and as the Nevada Current just reported, the proposal might not even get a public hearing. So today, co-host Dayvid Figler sits down with transportation planning expert Ray Delahanty, AKA CityNerd, who just posted a video titled "The Vegas Loop Is Getting Progressively More Stupid." So — is that fair, or is that exactly what's happening? Learn more about the sponsors of this August 18th episode: Southern Nevada Water Authority Want to get in touch?

The Tesla Tunnels Have… a Toxic Sludge Problem??

When the news broke last week that Elon Musk’s Boring Company faced over $100k in fines from Nevada OSHA for some pretty serious safety violations at their Las Vegas Tesla Tunnels (including a “toxic sludge” that burned workers’ skin and dangerously heavy equipment collapsing near tunnel entrances), Las Vegans were surprised. For most of us, this was the first we’d heard of last summer’s investigation. But in the meantime, while the Boring Co. contests the citations, city and county officials stayed mum and construction has continued. So what exactly was happening in those tunnels, and how does it reflect the culture of safety at the Boring Co? Co-host Dayvid Figler sits down with Fortune journalist Jessica Mathews, who interviewed over 10 former Boring Co. employees while researching her deep dive into safety at the Tesla Tunnels.
