Episode 473 - Talking with Doug Kirby of Roadside America

Hello boys and girls,Today on the show, we’re sitting down with Doug Kirby — one of the minds behind Roadside America, the legendary guide to the strange, the wonderful, the historic, the gigantic, the tiny, and the downright bizarre attractions scattered across the American landscape.Doug and the Roadside America team have spent decades documenting the unusual corners of the country — from giant fiberglass animals to mysterious monuments, from folk‑art masterpieces to the kind of oddball stops that make every road trip unforgettable. We’re going to talk about the history of Roadside America, how it all began, how they gather information, some of the most memorable attractions, and what’s coming next for the website, the app, and the future of roadside exploration. WebsiteFacebookYouTubePlease patronize our Wonderful Sponsors!!Tobacco Motorwear Scorpion Helmets  Wild-Ass Seats  Viking Bags Please take the time and help the families of fallen soldiers.
