Episode 140 - Retired LAPD & Uber Driver, Raymond Foster

 Raymond E. Foster—retired LAPD lieutenant turned Uber driver. Over 10,000 rides, he swapped a badge for a steering wheel and uncovered the raw, funny, and heartbreaking stories of Los Angeles after midnight.

His new book, Chasing the Surge: Ten Thousand Rides into the American Night, just dropped—a raw, darkly comic ride through LA’s midnight streets. It’s a memoir where heartbreaks, reinventions, and late-night weirdness collide—gritty, hilarious, and deeply human, one ride at a time.

Here's a link to order his book: Chasing the Surge: Ten Thousand Rides into the American Night.

We chatted about a great mix of things, and I'm so glad he stopped by the show! Listen now on your favorite podcast directory.
