NYU professor and “Pivot” podcast host Scott Galloway told a live audience that he defecated in the passenger seat of his Tesla before selling the vehicle, saying the act was personal payback after Tesla CEO Elon Musk repeatedly targeted him on social media.

Galloway made the claim during a live taping with Kara Swisher at the Orpheum Theater in Los Angeles, according to Fox News Digital. “I had a Tesla. Great car. He started sh—posting me on Twitter, so I sold it,” he said, adding that the act was “not good for resale value.” Fox News Digital said it contacted Musk and Tesla for comment; the reviewed reporting did not include a response.
The episode focused on the U.S. midterm elections, Musk’s political influence, and other claims made by Galloway and Swisher. A separate Fox News video posted earlier on November 9 summarized the same Tesla-related anecdote.
