Muffler men. The surprising history of miniature golf and it's connection to Rock City. A giant roadside duck. Politically incorrect roadside architecture. A motel drive in theater combination. South of The Border. A house shaped like a shoe with an ice cream parlor in the sole.
On this special episode of Coffee With Jim, the weekly podcast from Jim Hinckley's America, author and humorist Jim Hinckley shares the story of iconic and obscure road side attractions. It's road trip inspiration of epic proportions!
Next week on Coffee With Jim we will be talking time machines and time travel with Jackie Dunn of the Tulsa Model A Ford Club. An old two lane highway, a Model A Ford, a Sunday afternoon drive to the diner for dinner. It's as close to time travel as we can get!
Join us for another road trip inspiring conversation next Sunday morning. After all, Jim Hinckley's America is a shared adventure!
