Episode 18 begins with the unique Storyland amusement park that stood where the Cape Cod Mall currently stands.  A beloved fixture of the 1950's and 1960's this Mother Goose inspired attraction was a destination before Hyannis became the hub of the Cape.
In the picturesque beauty of Northern Vermont, placed perfectly between Lake Champlain and the Green Mountains is the town of Middlebury.  A college town filled with history and natural attractions this quaint New England classic should be a destination.
Playing some sort of organized baseball is a right of passage for most young boys in America.  Little League or Tee-Ball are most common, in New England in the 1980's though there was something between those called Farm League.  Enjoy some of my memories of playing baseball as a child Back In the Day.
Take a journey back in time with This Week In History.  This includes the Hindenburg disaster, Louisiana Purchase, a new Time Capsule and more!
Also be sure to check out my livestreams called Without A Map Friday's at 8pm on Instagram which serve as a sort of postgame show for the podcast. Find them on IGTV and YouTube after they've finished.
