In this episode, I sat down with Ezra Goldman, Founder, and CEO of Upshift. Upshift is a fractional car subscription company that aims to revolutionize transportation in the urban setting. It has the convenience of having a car you can use every time you need it sans the hassle of maintenance.
We had an exciting throw of ideas on how to address current and future concerns for their business. Listen up and learn from this value-packed episode.
In this episode, we talked about:
- The concept of the fractional subscription business, their system, and how it helps their members with the convenient transportation method.
- Their vision of replacing car ownership with fuel efficiency, saving money, and eventually improving cities and the environment is their end goal.
- How they came up with the business idea and how it transitioned to what it is now.
- The improvements they are implementing like the app for members to make it easier for them to access the vehicles they need.
- Being dedicated enough to your vision.
As Ezra shares with us their plans and concerns in their business, like parking constraints and availability, we brainstormed and came up with some interesting ideas and solutions:
- Survey the users. They are the ones who know about their neighborhood, and therefore, their input can contribute a lot to solving concerns in the parking space.
- Partnering up with apartment complexes for parking spaces.
- Looking into churches as options for parking because they mostly are just full on Sundays.
- Increasing availability through a more streamlined and efficient service experience.
- Looking into better data and better technology to maximize parking capacity of certain areas.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
