EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode of Pivot, featuring Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway, Elon Musk Drug Use Concerns Business Leaders | Pivot explores Elon Musk’s Ketamine Use Raises Governance, Safety, And Medical Questions Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway discuss a Wall Street Journal report alleging Elon Musk’s ongoing illegal drug use, particularly ketamine, and the resulting concerns among leaders at Tesla and SpaceX. They bring in anesthesiologist Dr. Jeffrey Swisher to explain what ketamine is medically, how it works, how it’s used therapeutically for depression, and the risks of recreational abuse. The conversation broadens into drug policy, societal hypocrisy around substances like alcohol versus ketamine, and the dangers of demonizing a useful medical drug due to high-profile abuse. They also probe the failures of corporate governance around Musk, the implications for his government contracts, and the importance of personal guardrails and interventions for powerful people struggling with addiction.
