Uber Lyft Drivers and Gig-economy news, interviews, insights, stories from the road, and much more !
The Rideshare Rodeo Podcast is a hidden gem in the world of rideshare and gig economy podcasts. As someone who has driven for Uber and Lyft for three years, I have listened to a multitude of rideshare podcasts, but this one has quickly become my new favorite. Hosted by Steve, this podcast covers everything you need to know about the gig economy and provides listeners with valuable news and interviews.
What sets The Rideshare Rodeo Podcast apart from other similar shows is Steve's fantastic hosting skills. He brings a refreshing voice to the industry and delivers information in a concise yet engaging manner. His passion for ridesharing and gig work shines through in every episode, making it easy to stay engaged and interested throughout. Furthermore, Steve's ability to deliver timely news that directly affects drivers is commendable. I always feel up-to-date on the latest happenings in the gig economy after listening to an episode.
In addition to the host's wonderful presentation, the interviews featured on The Rideshare Rodeo Podcast are incredibly informative and eye-opening. Steve brings on guests who provide unique insights into various aspects of the gig economy, allowing listeners to gain a deeper understanding of the industry as a whole. Whether it's an experienced driver sharing tips and tricks or an expert discussing relevant policy changes, each interview adds value to the podcast.
However, one minor downside of The Rideshare Rodeo Podcast is its frequency of episodes. As a devoted listener, I eagerly anticipate each new release, but sometimes find myself wishing there were more than just one episode per week. With such great content being consistently delivered, it would be amazing if there was a second episode released each week to satisfy my craving for more informative discussions.
In conclusion, The Rideshare Rodeo Podcast is an absolute must-listen for anyone involved in ridesharing or any other form of gig work. Steve's expertise and passion for the gig economy shines through in every episode, making it an engaging and informative experience. From the top-notch news coverage to the enlightening interviews, this podcast offers everything a rideshare driver or gig worker could ask for. I personally love listening to this podcast while driving and working, and I hope Steve continues creating more valuable content in the future. A++ all around.

In this episode of the podcast, we dive into the future of delivery, the economics of food apps, and new platforms trying to reshape the industry. First, we break down the rise of next-generation delivery robots — including a new robot with arms capable of opening doors and completing deliveries more autonomously. What does this mean for last-mile logistics, restaurants, and gig workers? And how close are we to a world where robots handle the majority of deliveries? Then we discuss a big shift in the delivery platform landscape: Uber Eats increasing fees for some restaurants. The company is raising commission rates in certain pricing tiers (with some going from 15% to 20% and others up to 25%) while also charging additional fees tied to its Uber One subscription customers. For many independent restaurants already operating on tight margins, even a few percentage points can significantly impact profitability. We also explore alternative models that aim to give restaurants and shoppers more control, including: Dumpling — a platform that enables independent personal shoppers to run their own grocery delivery businesses. Prept Vacations — a service designed to help travelers maintain their health and fitness routines while on vacation. Topics covered in this episode: The rise of delivery robots with arms
