On this edition of the Richard Crouse Show we meet Adam Growe. You may know him a standup comedian, a corporate entertainer or even a foster parent to seven children. But he’s likely most recognized as being Canada’s favourite cab driver. He hosted the Canadian trivia-based game show “Cash Cab” for roughly eight years between 2008 and 2015, in which he’d quiz unsuspecting riders with general knowledge questions for their chance to collect money while he drove them from place to place.
“Cash Cab” and Adam Growe return with a new spin on the old show… “Cash Cab Music.” Adam is back behind the wheel of a newly-renovated disco taxi, testing his cab customers on musical trivia. Get three wrong and you’re out but get the answers right and you can win cash and even sing some karaoke.
