The multi-billionaire defended his ownership of Twitter in a last-minute interview live from the company’s Silicon Valley HQ. This extra episode of Americast features his rollercoaster conversation with the BBC’s James Clayton in full. It came out of an email exchange over the BBC’s labelling on Twitter as "government-funded media" – Musk replied himself and agreed to an interview "tonight". Asked about the mass layoffs of Twitter staff, misinformation on the platform and his unusual work habits, Musk at times tries to do the interviewing himself and admits that owning Twitter has been "quite painful".
