Nelson Nigel is the Founder and CEO of Moto Nation. Back in 2016 Nelson as an Uber driver noticed that taxis and car services do not offer installed child car seats, and parents are helpless. He found a void in the transportation marketplace that Uber and Lyft have explicitly left open. Nelson created a mobile app to provide a convenient and safe alternative to lugging car seats to and from airports to change how parents travel with small children. Today, Kidmoto is a trusted brand that connects parents to a network of professionally trained drivers that provide airport transfers with secured child car seats for safe and convenient airport travel in 52 US cities. After operating for 6 years Kidmoto has over 40k completed rides, 40 part-time employees, 500 independent drivers nationwide, over a 7-figure revenue for 2024 and is valued at $25 million.

What did those experiences awaken in you creatively and emotionally? And how did that mentorship shape not only your musicianship, but your standards for excellence?Performing at the Highest LevelYour career has brought you into some of the world's most prestigious musical environments — from Carnegie Hall to collaborations with artists like Yehudi Menuhin, Yo-Yo Ma, and Rudolf Serkin.When performing at that level, what separates technical mastery from true artistic expression? What have you learned about communication, emotion, and presence through music?Reinvention, Teaching, and Giving BackIn addition to performing, you've spent decades mentoring young musicians and building chamber music programs at institutions like Montclair State University, Yale, and Princeton.What do you believe young artists today most need to understand about building a sustainable creative life? And how has teaching deepened your own understanding of creativity and performance?Writing the Memoir: From Musician to AuthorThis book marks your debut as an author, and it goes far beyond music. It's about resilience, identity, family, and survival.What inspired you to finally tell this story now?

App-based cab drivers in Gurugram associated with platforms like Uber and Ola went on strike on March 23, demanding mandatory KYC verification for passengers. The protest has disrupted ride availability across the city, leaving commuters struggling to book cabs. Samah Qundeel explains the key demands.
In this episode of CabChat, the hosts discuss the longevity of their podcast, share personal experiences as cab drivers, and delve into the regulation of pedicabs in London. They also touch on the impact of social media on the cab driver community and the importance of maintaining professionalism. The conversation includes humorous anecdotes about passengers, the challenges of driving in London, and the recent changes in their podcast format. The episode concludes with a call for community engagement and support for their podcast. CabChat is recognized as the longest running taxi podcast in the world. Personal experiences as cab drivers can lead to unexpected situations, like dealing with sick passengers. The current soiling charge for cabs is insufficient to cover cleaning costs. Changes in podcast format were made based on listener feedback regarding music. YouTube analytics reveal interesting insights about listener habits. Cycling Mikey’s approach to road safety raises important discussions. New regulations for pedicabs aim to create a safer environment for all road users. The cost of pedicabs may not be as economical as it seems compared to traditional taxis. Social media can be a double-edged sword for cab drivers, fostering both community and conflict. Community events like the Cab Chat Fish and Chip Club encourage camaraderie among cab drivers.

Captain Jeffery Tulley returns to the Netherlands to take command of the Invenios, a revolutionary research vessel built for adventure and discovery. Reuniting with his longtime friend and First Mate Oberlin St. Claire, Tulley finds himself eager to embark on their maiden voyage—and perhaps chase the legendary wreck of the Highland Rose. As the crew welcomes system engineer Dr. Abigail Eventon, whose groundbreaking Trident Drive gives the Invenios unprecedented speed on the open sea, tensions arise over Tulley's ambitious plans. Oberlin urges caution with their still-untested vessel, but Tulley's determination to chase glory before their equipment is fully assembled threatens to put the ship at risk before they've even left port.

Ever had an idea so specific that everyone told you it wouldn't work? Nelson Nigel heard that too, right before scaling his niche startup, Kidmoto, to over 60 cities across the U.S. Nelson is the founder and CEO of Kidmoto, a reservation-based ride service that provides pre-installed child car seats for families traveling to and from airports. After surviving a life-threatening train accident at age 13 and later working as a NYC cab and Uber driver, Nelson spotted a critical gap in the rideshare market – one that Uber and traditional taxis weren't solving. So, with just $600 and relentless energy, he built a solution parents now rely on nationwide. What Happens When You Build a Business Around One Clear Problem Most ride services leave families on their own when it comes to car seats, creating travel stress and safety risks. Nelson shares how identifying this single, overlooked pain point helped Kidmoto stand out in a crowded market. By going all-in on solving this one issue, he built a business that serves a specific type of customer better than anyone else. How to Grow Without Investors, Funding, or a Tech Background No VC backing. No glamorous startup story. Nelson built everything from the ground up – outsourcing tech, mastering content marketing, and learning to prioritize the right problems at the right time. If you've ever wondered whether you really need outside funding to grow, Nelson's story is proof that focus, grit, and great execution can take you further than you think.

The All Update for Monday March 24 2025
The Trump administration is threatening to withhold federal funding from the MTA unless it takes steps to improve safety in New York City's transit system.

Social Discipline is incredibly excited to present the adventurous life of Jeff Perkins, a hidden gem of the American underground. This massive five-hour podcast, recorded in Berlin in June 2024, explores his fascinating journey—no one else can claim to have performed for Yoko Ono and John Cage, created legendary light shows with The Velvet Underground, Sly and the Family Stone, and The Germs, programmed the first Kenneth Anger retrospective in L.A., and encountered both Charles Manson and members of the satanic cult The Process. Jeff joined the military in the 1960s and was stationed in Tokyo, where he met Yoko Ono in the early '60s. He began performing some of her pieces there and later in New York. Perkins also filmed Ono's classic Film No. 4 (Bottoms), a Fluxus work. His first independent contribution to the Fluxfilm Anthology was Shout. He was at the heart of the 1960s New York avant-garde scene, surrounded by figures like La Monte Young, Jack Smith, and Angus MacLise. In January 1967, Perkins moved to Los Angeles, where he worked as a programmer at Cinematheque 16. Influenced by Tony Conrad's The Flicker, he began producing powerful light shows and collaborated with bands throughout the '60s and '70s—ranging from The Jimi Hendrix Experience and The Grateful Dead to the punk scene with X and The Germs. He even refused to do a show for the Sex Pistols due to a disagreement with the promoter. Perkins was a close friend of Terry Jennings and, in fact, entrusted his archive to La Monte Young. While in L.A., he was neighbors with the artist James Turrell. In 1980, Perkins moved back to New York and started a loft project just a block away from Ground Zero, reminiscent of George Maciunas' artist loft spaces. To finance it, he worked as a cab driver. He remained deeply connected to cinema, particularly through Anthology Film Archives, where he proposed a John Cassavetes retrospective to Jonas Mekas and later became a manager. In 1994, Nam June Paik—who coined the term “The Fluxus cab driver” for Perkins—invited him to perform at Anthology Film Archives in a homage to Yoko Ono. His performance, Butthead, was a great success. His legendary loft became a hub where one could easily encounter visiting filmmakers like Pedro Costa and Albert Serra. In 1989, Perkins organized a series of lectures at Anthology Film Archives with Henry Flynt and Tony Conrad, reuniting the two after years of estrangement. Flynt would become a lifelong friend. In 2008, during the financial crisis, when I lived with Jeff, we organized a series of four-hour lectures by Flynt in the loft's kitchen, focusing on the crisis and communist economics. I vividly remember Tony Conrad attending one of them in his elegant pajamas. Perkins has directed two critically acclaimed films—one on abstract painter Sam Francis and another on the legendary Fluxus figure George Maciunas. He is currently finishing editing a film about Henry Flynt in Berlin. This podcast concludes with an excerpt from his piece Movies for the Blind, which features recordings of conversations with passengers from his time as a New York cab driver.

Meet Shaik Salauddin, a 38-year-old cab driver from Hyderabad, who is fighting for the rights of eight million gig workers from across the country. While India's gig economy is burgeoning, the workers on whose backs it is built barely enjoy any rights or legal protections. Salauddin realised this early on and in 2019, after five years of relentless pursuit, the Indian Federation of App-based Transport Workers (IFAT) was born. With over 25,000 members working for aggregators like Uber, Amazon, and Zomato, through IFAT, Salauddin is redefining the way we look at trade unions. To begin with, the union has no political affiliations. Instead, Salauddin encourages all of its members to understand power structures and approach the right people to drive change.Thanks to his efforts, two states, Karnataka and Rajasthan, have introduced legislations to protect the rights of gig workers. Others like Kerala are working on their own.In this episode, hosts Snigdha and Rahel speak to Salauddin himself and to Prof. Vinoj Abraham from Labour Economics at the Centre for Development Studies in Thiruvananthapuram to understand the significance of Salauddin's work and why it is important to protect gig workers.

Degenerates Andy S and Brandon Bombay kick off Cruisemas in July with Michael Mann's moody L.A. thriller 'Collateral.' Bombay jump starts the convo by reminiscing about how shady cab drivers were in the pre-Uber years, and recalls a couple wild incidents dealing with cabbies in the city including one driver who tried to rip him off, and another who was far too wasted to be behind the wheel. Then the guys dive into how Tom Cruise was famously cast against type as the chilling hit man named Vincent, who seemed put on earth to do one thing: end people's lives. Naturally, that leads to comparisons into the real-life Cruise, and how in fulfilling his destiny of becoming the greatest movie star of his generation, he also picked up sets of skills that would allow him to kill people in real life if he ever chose. Perhaps Jamie Foxx was miscast as the listless yet meticulous cab driver, but he holds his own opposite Cruise who channeled his own icy drive to nail the role. With Mann at the helm it all adds up to a gorgeously shot film overflowing with mood — that acted as a calling card for the director's digital era.
Maverick and Avalon discuss and review the 2004 release “Collateral”. The conversation discusses the movie Collateral and focuses on the characters of Max and Vincent, as well as the side plot involving Detective Ray. Max's character arc is explored, highlighting his initial apathy and fear of taking risks, and how his involvement with Vincent forces him to confront his complacency. Vincent is portrayed as a complex villain who questions the meaning of life and poses philosophical questions to Max. The side plot with Detective Ray provides context and adds tension to the story. The death of Ray's character is praised for its unexpectedness and impact on the plot. In the second part of the conversation, Maverick and Avalon discuss the themes and ending of the movie 'Collateral'. They explore the character development of Max and Vincent, the philosophical points raised, and the climactic final scene. They also discuss the absence of the FBI and police involvement in the latter part of the film. Overall, they agree that 'Collateral' is a compelling story that encourages viewers to take responsibility and take action in their own lives.----------Highlights:0:00 “Collateral” Introduction7:02 Introducing Max12:11 Apathy and Motive20:21 Ray the Undercover Cop29:57 Vincent, the Hitman36:48 Max Breaks41:41 The Train Showdown50:46 Police Conflict Disappears54:21 Thoughts and Impacts----------Show Notes:9 Points Rating System: https://www.alostplot.com/9-points/#collateral #collateralfilm #tomcruise #jamiefoxx #alostplot #filmreview #moviethoughts #fbi #police #chase #hitman #tension #philosophical #villain #interestingvillain #jadapinkettsmith #markruffalo
