Nikhil Kamath, co-founder of Zerodha, has released a new episode of his ‘WTF’ podcast and his guest this time is Elon Musk. The episode is available on Kamath’s YouTube channel and covers topics like technology, business, innovation and personal life. 

But the part that caught everyone’s attention was the emotional discussion about having children. Musk opened up about parenthood in a very honest and relatable way, and his comments became the most talked-about moment from the podcast.

During the episode, Kamath casually said that he does not have kids. Elon Musk immediately replied, “Maybe you should,” encouraging him to think about starting a family. Kamath added that many people tell him the same thing.

Musk then explained why having kids is so important to him. He said that a child gives life a special meaning. He described how a baby starts off with no understanding of the world and cannot survive alone, but slowly begins to walk, talk, and think. 

Musk said that watching a child grow and see the world through their eyes is one of the greatest joys of life. He also said that people need to have children for the future of humanity; otherwise, humans may not survive as a species.

This part of the conversation stood out because it was emotional, sincere, and very different from the usual serious business talks Musk is known for.
