Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath has dropped a new glimpse of his upcoming “WTF is” podcast episode featuring Tesla and SpaceX chief Elon Musk, releasing a second teaser that mixes lighthearted banter with reflections on success, perseverance, and the ongoing battle against AI-generated content.

The black-and-white clip, shared on X, opens with Kamath offering a candid observation about Musk’s physique. “The first thing I must say is you're a lot bigger and bulkier muscular than I would have thought you are,” Kamath tells Musk as they sit together over coffee.

That sets the tone for a conversation that then moves to Musk’s longstanding connection with a particular letter. Kamath asks, “Why do you like the letter X as much as you do?” prompting Musk to answer with a laugh, “It’s a good question. Honestly, sometimes I wonder what’s wrong with me.”

The two share the moment before shifting again, this time into a pop-culture tangent when Kamath poses, “If you were to be a character from ‘The Matrix’, who would you be?” Musk replies, “Hopefully not agent Smith? He’s my hero.”

Kamath titled the teaser post with the line, “Here’s to delaying gratification. The future belongs to the patient,” hinting at the theme of the full conversation while offering few concrete details beyond its “coming soon” promise.

This follow-up preview arrives shortly after Kamath circulated what he called the first “funny” teaser.

That earlier 39-second clip, also posted on X, featured Musk and Kamath quietly seated amid what looks like industrial factory equipment.

The two drink coffee, smile at one another, and exchange silent laughs. No dialogue is heard, but the SpaceX logo on Kamath’s mug is clearly visible, fueling speculation among viewers about the tone and depth of the full episode.

Kamath has steadily positioned his show as a platform capable of attracting global names from technology, politics, and business. Past guests include Microsoft founder Bill Gates, investor Vinod Khosla, and Perplexity CEO Aravind Srinivas.

With Musk’s appearance teased twice in quick succession, anticipation for the complete conversation has grown.
