Greetings from Somewhere | A Travel Show

Hey folks, been a while. I miss you too. Anyways, here's an episode about driverless cars I made for the Vox Media podcast series 'Land of the Giants.'

In 2018, I took an important road trip with an old friend that led to the creation of this show. On that trip, the two of us were both experiencing a lot of transition in life. At this point, it’s been four years since I’ve seen or spoken to that friend and I’ve always wondered what happened in his life after we took that trip… so I caught up with him to ask. This episode was created as part of the ‘Roundabout’ podcast series from Statefarm and AcastHost: Zach MackPlease rate and review our show on Apple podcasts & Spotify Hosted on Acast.

Maybe it's a place for bands like The Eagles and U2 or even influencers with big hats who just wanna escape from LA for the weekend and take selfies. Or maybe, it's a place where people come to heal or to make something, or both.Host: Zach MackJordan Coley's newsletterAvon's short filmPlease rate and review our show on Apple podcasts Hosted on Acast.
