In this episode of "This Podcast is Not Real," our AI hosts break down the serious challenges Tesla is now facing.

Despite Elon Musk’s optimism and promises of robotaxis and humanoid robots, Tesla is grappling with:

  • Falling sales and the company's first-ever annual decline

  • Shrinking profit margins under growing competitive pressure

  • A heavy reliance on regulatory credit sales—which could disappear with new policy changes

  • And the growing risk that Musk’s political activities are starting to damage the brand

With profitability slipping and future bets unproven, can Tesla survive this storm—or is the road ahead even rougher than it looks?
