The Nifty Fifty Show
Have you ever gone on a road trip or looked at a map and wondered...what makes that place different from all others? In this podcast, I talk about the stories that give places their identity. The Nifty Fifty Show is the perfect companion for the road warrior, armchair traveler, and the curious, as well as the perfect antidote to the dreaded word "flyover." So pull out a map, and let's get going!

Interstate 80
Interstate 80. Millions see and drive on it every day, but did you know it is one of the heavy lifters of the US Interstate System? It also parallels the routes of the earliest cross-country road trips (mostly) as well as the first transcontinental railroad. Before we depart on our armchair roadtrip, we'll talk about how the interstate highway system came to be and about Interstate 80 in particular.
