Your Self-Driving Car Might Have a Thelma and Louise Setting

from Ranting Out Loud: An LGBTQ+ perspective on life, love, politics and chaos · host Lee Swift, Chadrick Douglas, Producer Mike

Chadrick, Lee and Producer Mike take a ride into the future of self-driving cars and immediately start wondering whether we're really ready to let the robot drive. Will self-driving cars make life safer for older people who don't want to give up their independence? Probably. Will they replace truck drivers, taxi drivers and Uber drivers? Almost certainly. Will someone eventually slur their destination, wake up 12 hours later and ask, "Why are we in Pennsylvania?" Absolutely. The gang gets into AI, disappearing jobs, liability, insurance, Elon Musk, drunk passengers, and the inevitable question of what people will call the Mile High Club when there's no driver to kick you out. Plus we play audio from live-TV bloopers that send everyone into hysterics. Lesson: Go find something that makes you laugh. Because we could all use more of that right now.
