Unfortunately, the founders and homesteaders of this town were unable to sustain their dreams, due to the unrelenting scorched earth, dust and racism.

What's that smell? Why it's the Great Salt Lake's sulfuric stink. I think Mark Twain would be proud of our stop in Tooele, Utah. He would probably not be so proud of the horrible Utahn dad jokes Jessica decided to share. Pop a quick squat with Karmen and Jessica, then let's get the heck out of Utah.Visit us:www.smalltownusashow.comFollow us:Twitter --> https://twitter.com/smalltownusashw Instagram --> https://www.instagram.com/smalltownusashow/SFX by ZapSplat
What do you get when you combine a giant sand mountain, the pony express, some secret hybrid melons, and Karmen and Jessica? The end of the SmalltownUSA. I mean, that would be heavy and they probably wouldn't survive. Thank goodness it's not the end and we can head over to Falcon, Nevada, an oasis, for a pit stop. And really, just a pit stop. Not too much here to see.It's also Black History Month. Karmen and Jessica shed some light on a couple trail blazers in Nevada, who helped advance social justice and equity.

What would you do if you were stranded for months on a cold, blizard-ridden mountain top with your family and little to no food? More importantly, who would you eat first? Even more importantly, what part would you eat first?

They truck in over to Truckee to learn about its dark past. It's getting serious over here.
The Lincoln Highway, a forgotten passage through the US. First stop, Dutch Flat, California. Home to only 110 folks, but with a rich history. And when we say rich, we mean Gold.

(Intense music with clock ticking in the background) "Every year, over one man drowns because of ghosts. That's close to 100 deaths in the last 99 years (about 10 per decade). This is because they are very aggressive and territorial, and have a habit of not understanding the concept of meeting in the middle. It's 10 o'clock, do you know where your children are?" This has been a SmallTown public announcement.
