Can a CEO choose to stop working for an investor's profit? Blake Scholl wants to arrange exactly that, telling Fox Business he is pursuing a buyout of Scott Galloway's shares in Boom Supersonic following the podcaster's remarks about Elon Musk.
The interview opens with footage from The Prof G Pod in which Galloway calls Musk a "traitor to the West" and invokes the execution of the Rosenbergs. Scholl condemns the remarks, interpreting them as a call for violence against Musk.
For Boom, which is developing a supersonic passenger airliner, Scholl describes a possible change in shareholders rather than an investor being summarily expelled. He says other investors have offered to purchase Galloway's equity: "I think it looks like we'll be able to get him off of our cap table in an amicable way."
The segment drew nearly half a million views before its first full day, far beyond the channel's usual start for a regular video.
Asked about Galloway's university position, Scholl rejects cancel culture while arguing that violent rhetoric crosses a line. He also makes a narrower clarification about his own company: Galloway is no longer on Boom's marketing advisory board and, Scholl says, has not been for a long time.
