Description

Cheese castles, corn palaces, giant ketchup bottles — the Midwest has perfected the art of the roadside oddball. In this episode of Unscaled, Jeremy and Amy roll through the heartland to find the attractions that are still standing (and still weird) in 2025.

From Wisconsin’s sprawling House on the Rock to Minnesota’s world-famous ball of twine, South Dakota’s corny palace, Michigan’s gravity-defying Mystery Spot, and more, it’s a full tour of Midwest kitsch. We’ll even pay tribute to a cheese fortress, a pickle barrel cottage, and a massive ketchup bottle that doubles as a water tower.

Because in the Midwest, bigger isn’t just better — it’s usually stranger.
