Route 66 & The American Road Trip | English Listening Practice

from The Sharing English Podcast · host Freya Yskes

Why is the road trip such a powerful symbol in American culture? In this episode, we explore the history of Route 66 — from its creation in 1926 to its golden age and eventual decline — and look at why driving across the United States became such a defining experience. Along the way, we’ll talk about roadside attractions, pop culture, pronunciation, and the deeper meaning behind the “open road.” Website: https://www.sharing-english.com/podcast Music: “Cherish” by Sascha Endehttps://ende.app/en/song/498-cherish License: https://ende.app/en/standard-license
