#008 - Riding with Rowbots

In this episode of The Rowbo Show, Mark takes us on a spontaneous adventure during a visit to Arizona, where he hitches a ride in a fully driverless WAYMO vehicle. With curiosity in full gear, he puts the experience—and the technology—under the microscope, even calling customer support to ask the tough questions most riders wouldn’t think to ask. We dive into the implications of this cutting-edge "Robo" (not Rowbo!) service and explore how it’s reshaping the future of transportation. What does it mean for traditional ride-share drivers? Is this a safer, more affordable solution—or just the beginning of another wave of job displacement? Buckle up for a lively, eye-opening ride through the world of autonomous vehicles, automation, and the rapidly changing road ahead.Hosts: Mark Rowbottom, Joe Moralez--Contact | [email protected] | rowboshow.comTues. 6:30 PM | WXRW 104.1 FM Riverwest Radio
