Cash Cab puts Real Cash in Cab fare’s Pockets
The Cash Cab is one wild ride into a game show experience! Nothing else can touch this reality show, that’s on the Discovery Channel. If you have cable, then you more than likely get Discovery. Watch Cash Cab! It really is a lot of fun, watching some unassuming New York fares make some fast cash, just for answering questions you might find on Jeopardy, for children.
The questions on Cash Cab, are all trivia related, yet they can get tough along the ride. All of the fares get into the spirit of the game and have a great time; weather they win, or just get a free ride to their destination.
Ben Bailey is the host and cabbie of the Cash Cab. Ben looks like the all American cabbie and plays his part as host for Cash Cab, to absolute perfection.
Ben Bailey is a well known comic, who has been doing his comedy routines all over the world. You might have caught him on the Tonight Show, Comedy Central, Mad TV and many other TV shows across the cable. Ben keeps Cash Cab moving at a fast clip. Most of the Cash Cab moments are, two fares per 30 minute show.
If you have never caught a Cash Cab episode, this video clip, below, will show you what happens.
Ben Bailey, picks up a fare of lovely young women, who just happen to be “The Lascivious Biddies “, a well known jazz based group. Ben starts hitting the women with the trivia questions and… well, just watch the clip!
“The Lascivious Biddies” are also in this very short video byte, doing an ad for Chili’s restaurant.
I keep hoping that Alex Trebek will jump into the Cash Cab some day. If he did, I think Ben Bailey would give him one hell of a ride.
Cash Cab pops up all over Discovery Channel’s schedule. Check out your cable’s schedule for the next few times Cash Cab shows up, then catch it; if you haven’t seen this tid-bit of reality heaven. It is a total riot!
