dude maybe just drive

The only thing I'll nope harder than a chatty Lyft driver may just be a chatty Lyft driver who’s RECORDING YOUR CONVERSATION FOR HIS PODCAST, in what might be the most 2017 white guy media career move for the ages.

Like, I’ll admit: it’s an intriguing premise and yes, the taxi/ride share driver-passenger relationship has traditionally always had some mystical therapeutic properties ( something about sitting alone on pleather, watching the world wiz by and the meter marking the passage of time & your mortality, idk) but Deezers, something about this does not inherently jive with me on this. Man-on-the-street interviews I get, but mining people for content when they’re just tryin’ to get on with their lives? LMK your thoughts.

Like Deez Links? Forward to other markers of mortality.
