Season 3, Episode 1: Tesla

Acquired kicks off Season 3 with a gangbuster two-hour
extravaganza on America’s most successful automotive startup
since The Ford Motor Company: Tesla. We cover everything, from
founding to its 2010 IPO to all that’s happened since, including
the question on the minds of superhero fans everywhere: who came
first, Elon Musk or Tony Stark? (Spoiler: Elon)
