About this episode

Rylan shares a humorous and frustrating story about getting scammed during a rickshaw ride.

In this episode, I share the story of getting scammed on a rickshaw ride, more than double the usual fare, while navigating the absurdity of being lost on a back-alley maze and talking it out live with my mom. From meters turned off to unexpected shortcuts, and a driver so bold he even tried to ask for extra money at the end, this ride becomes a lesson in patience, frustration, and human audacity. A mix of humor, disbelief, and Spartan-level restraint, this episode is for anyone who’s ever been caught in an everyday scam and survived to tell the tale.
