Speaker 1: It looks good. You got a new knee. Man, You
Speaker 1: ready to get out? I got it? I'm going, you
Speaker 1: got I'm going. Yeah. All right, it's Mojo in the
Speaker 1: morning show. I want to get this person on the
Speaker 1: air to talk about it. The only problem is this
Speaker 1: person is never up before ten am because they go
Speaker 1: out all the time. They go out at night, and
Speaker 1: they're always you know, out late and then late going
Speaker 1: home and sleeping in till ten I don't think they've
Speaker 1: ever listened to this radio show. But so, my buddy's
Speaker 1: daughter has this happening. She's like mid twenties and she
Speaker 1: has this going on lately. And he was telling me
Speaker 1: the story. He was telling me a story about how
Speaker 1: she will go out with her girlfriends and they will
Speaker 1: hang out in like Birmingham, which is a suburb here
Speaker 1: in the area that has a lot of restaurants and
Speaker 1: you know, late night fair and she won't drive to
Speaker 1: Birmingham because obviously she wants to drink and have some cocktails,
Speaker 1: and so she'll take an uber home. And he was
Speaker 1: telling me that she no longer can take ubers home.
Speaker 1: She has to call him or call her mom to
Speaker 1: come pick her up because the uber drivers are creepy.
Speaker 1: So let me let me read real quick, because I
Speaker 1: wrote down some of the comments that he made, the
Speaker 1: quotes and stuff. He said, Okay, here you go. Here's one.
Speaker 2: This is just one driver.
Speaker 1: No, this is numerous drivers. OK okay. So this has
Speaker 1: happened to her numerous times from different drivers, and I
Speaker 1: don't know as a woman if I would get into
Speaker 1: an uber after hearing some of these things. It starts
Speaker 1: with the guys asking where's your boyfriend? Where's your husband?
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 1: Why are they asking that? You know the driver? And
Speaker 1: then it goes into are you dating right now? And
Speaker 1: what kind of guys do you date? Two? In some
Speaker 1: of the cases she's had it where the guys would
Speaker 1: talk to her about how beautiful she is or how
Speaker 1: she looked that night and say, you look really good.
Speaker 1: Were you drinking tonight? Like asked that question almost in
Speaker 1: kind of a way that you're like, what's up? And
Speaker 1: one particular guy he was telling me drove her to
Speaker 1: her house. Now she lives with her parents, So drove
Speaker 1: her to her house which her parents are there, and
Speaker 1: got out of the car and said, I want to
Speaker 1: make sure you get to the door to walk her
Speaker 1: to the door. Yeah, all right, somebody needs to talk
Speaker 1: to me about this. Somebody needs to tell me. I
Speaker 1: thought we had Uber woman or whatever it was. Wasn't
Speaker 1: there so uber and not? By the way, I believe
Speaker 1: that they have all these levels of Uber, but there's
Speaker 1: really no level, because I did. I tried to get
Speaker 1: an Uber black one time because I figured to myself,
Speaker 1: I want to get an Uber black. It was a
Speaker 1: super rope. You can't what was her name? The driver?
Speaker 1: Actually you know what? It was a black man. I
Speaker 1: looked at him, my guard, are you driving a woman's
Speaker 1: car right now? Whose car are you driving? Is Renee
Speaker 1: Rene's car?
Speaker 2: I mean, the second half of the comments are definitely
Speaker 2: very creepy. Have you been drinking?
Speaker 3: Is?
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, well me, if.
Speaker 4: I'm an Uber driver, I want to know in case
Speaker 4: you try to throw up in my back seat or something.
Speaker 2: But if it's to that point, I know I don't
Speaker 2: need to ask, you know, you know, if somebody's going
Speaker 2: to vomit and if they're very clearly intoxicated.
Speaker 1: I said to my friend, I said, like, how safe
Speaker 1: do you feel about this? And he said, he said, honestly,
Speaker 1: I would rather wake up in the middle of the
Speaker 1: night or late, you know, middle of the night. For him,
Speaker 1: it's probably ten o'clock at night or something like that.
Speaker 1: But I'd rather wake up f from a sleep to
Speaker 1: go pick her up, or know that I have to
Speaker 1: stay up to go pick her up at like midnight
Speaker 1: or whatever it is making sure she gets home safe. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, Yeah, that's it's crazy.
Speaker 2: I feel blessed. I've never had a creepy Uber experience.
Speaker 2: And I actually have had an Uber driver who walked
Speaker 2: me to my garage.
Speaker 1: But he was this little, sweet old man.
Speaker 2: I had had him several times and I had been
Speaker 2: drinking and he was like, I'm just going to walk
Speaker 2: you do And I didn't think anything right. I mean
Speaker 2: when I say old, he was probably eighty.
Speaker 1: What would you what do you think he would have done?
Speaker 1: But he had a hard stack if you said for
Speaker 1: a night down. He did not feel anything weird. He
Speaker 1: was very kind. The old guy's great until as uh, Nicole,
Speaker 1: what's going on?
Speaker 3: Hi?
Speaker 5: Hi?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 5: I'm a list driver And with Uber they do background checks,
Speaker 5: but they do not They're not.
Speaker 3: As contingent on like your background check. You can have
Speaker 3: a felony and still drive for Uber.
Speaker 2: Really, that doesn't mean but not even that, not even
Speaker 2: that that's terrible. If that's true, it's you don't you
Speaker 2: don't need to have a record to just be creepy.
Speaker 5: Right, But but you can also like if still for
Speaker 5: somebody on the platform driving for Uber.
Speaker 4: Somebody else that you don't know could be also.
Speaker 5: Driving for them, Like the lift, they do.
Speaker 3: Verific identity verification, so they know.
Speaker 5: That you're the one driving.
Speaker 1: Interesting where they don't they.
Speaker 2: Don't do that.
Speaker 1: I've had that happen to me, Nicole, where a driver
Speaker 1: showed up and him like, that wasn't the person in
Speaker 1: the picture, Like, you're not, Yeah, that has happened. That's
Speaker 1: I'm confused.
Speaker 3: Like a friend of yours could drive off of.
Speaker 1: Your off of your account, using your account. Wow, hold
Speaker 1: on a second here, Michelle, what's up, Michelle? How you doing?
Speaker 5: Hey? We were taught not to get in cars with strangers.
Speaker 1: Get cars with strangers, and isn't that crazy? It doesn't
Speaker 1: make any sense, Michelle, Michelle, have you ever been in
Speaker 1: a ride share and felt uncomfortable?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 2: When I was out in Orange County, California, I thought
Speaker 2: I was gonna die.
Speaker 1: What happened? This guy was creepy?
Speaker 5: Took us like on detours.
Speaker 2: He took us on tours where we weren't going where
Speaker 2: we're I was with a friend of mine and.
Speaker 4: I was like, where are you going?
Speaker 1: And he's like, well, I got to go this pot
Speaker 1: and I'm like, no, you don't, Okay, So you bring
Speaker 1: up a really interesting point. He told me that that
Speaker 1: happened to his daughter once too, so he doesn't. He
Speaker 1: lives like off of the main drag that goes through
Speaker 1: the town that she goes to. Like, he lives right
Speaker 1: off of that. He started doing side roads.
Speaker 2: See.
Speaker 1: I'm cool with that though, because if there's a straight
Speaker 1: line one streets.
Speaker 4: Sometimes I tell you like this sometimes when I take
Speaker 4: because if I'm drinking and I live downtown and I'm
Speaker 4: going to, like, say, for example, my cousin's wedding last Friday,
Speaker 4: the lift had has taken away that I wouldn't have
Speaker 4: taken because I know a better route in order to
Speaker 4: get there. Yeah, we all have that where a lift. Well,
Speaker 4: seeing you left and you're like, no, why would they
Speaker 4: send me that direction? I should have got this one.
Speaker 2: So I always and I think a habit when I
Speaker 2: get into uber. I just started using Lyft, which actually
Speaker 2: I like better, but I always put a map to
Speaker 2: the destination if I don't know where I'm going to
Speaker 2: the destination on my like I pull up Google Maps
Speaker 2: if I'm in another town and put the hotel in
Speaker 2: there so that I can like kind of follow along
Speaker 2: on my own, because well, you will see where your
Speaker 2: driver's going.
Speaker 1: But on your uber you can see their map that
Speaker 1: it's telling them to go.
Speaker 2: No, I know what I'm saying. I'm not paying at Like, yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm kind of not paying attention, but I got.
Speaker 1: Beared off of that map, like the map of where
Speaker 1: they're going, like he went on he which.
Speaker 2: Is exactly why I do what I do. I do
Speaker 2: it all the time when I'm in another city.
Speaker 1: You shouldn't be allowed to go off of their map
Speaker 1: because it is identifying where you're going. What's up, Stephanie,
Speaker 1: how you doing. I'm doing good.
Speaker 5: I'm the first time, long time, really long time.
Speaker 3: Thank you.
Speaker 5: I was just saying that this just sounds like a
Speaker 5: nice guy. And since Wynn is walking someone to the
Speaker 5: door a red.
Speaker 1: Flag, well when she's wearing a mini skirt and had
Speaker 1: just had a bunch of espresso martini's, you know, I.
Speaker 5: Don't know I think it's just her perception and they
Speaker 5: could have just been nice, innocent.
Speaker 1: Dudes that please please be safe out there. Stephanie, thank
Speaker 1: you for the call. Jovine, what's up?
Speaker 5: Von? Hey, Mojoe, Good morning everybody. Just real quick. I've
Speaker 5: been doing this full time overnight in the Detroit area,
Speaker 5: only at night. I have gotten pretty much only the
Speaker 5: fun people. But all of the stories I get are
Speaker 5: about the drivers being extra creepy. People are way too
Speaker 5: relaxed and they don't pay attention. Everybody needs to be
Speaker 5: careful because these drivers are too many. Unfortunately they're not
Speaker 5: don't have the best intention. I hear it all the
Speaker 5: time has been about stick.
Speaker 1: Do you tell them, hey, you got to report that guy?
Speaker 1: Because as of that does it the right way? I
Speaker 1: would not want them out there, you know absolutely.
Speaker 5: And by the way, Lift is the sketchy one. I
Speaker 5: heard the other lady say they you could have a
Speaker 5: selling Me goes back about ten to fifteen years. Lift
Speaker 5: does not go back as far. See.
Speaker 1: I'm cool with that.
Speaker 5: I'm look listen, it's completely fine to do an in
Speaker 5: depth check. But all of the sketchy stuff that I
Speaker 5: that I'm hearing all the time is almost always on
Speaker 5: the lift and just.
Speaker 1: This is what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: Though, as long as you want to lockdown for those
Speaker 4: sex crimes, I'm straight. You got to be able to drive, bro,
Speaker 4: Like have you went in there for money launder? And
Speaker 4: what they got to do with me to start? But

Speaker 1: almost at a point now where don't talk to me.
Speaker 1: You know what I mean? You like it? You Saturday? Quiet? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's my preference.
Speaker 3: Quiet preferred?

Speaker 1: wear outfits that are very nice, and I worry, and

Speaker 3: the back seat Shell Casings. Luckily it was me and
Speaker 3: a bunch of my friends. If I was by myself,
