BTW, for those wondering about this story, it really was about the PR guy. I’ve known him for years when he was with Nissan. I always and will always feel bad when somebody loses his or hers job. Easy for me to write this story, but definitely thinking of those who lost their jobs.

I remember they were in the news a lot last year around this time. Famed Discovery channel and YT star Diesel Dave bought the Badger and into Nikola last year. Formed a second company called Embr Motors. Dave made a video on it then never heard about it again. The Embr Motor website is still "under construction". Then Nikola sued him shortly after because he brought in Nikola's old, convicted CEO Trevor Milton. Sounds like there was more drama than truck building over there. Too bad.
