In this episode of American Road Trip Talk, listeners are taken on a nostalgic journey through the rolling hills of the Ozarks to explore the vibrant history and quirky roadside culture of Pulaski County, Missouri. Guest Beth Wiles, Executive Director of the Pulaski County Tourism Bureau, guides travelers along 33 intact miles of historic Route 66, highlighting iconic stops that range from the scenic bluffs of Devil’s Elbow to the eccentric humor of the Uranus "sideshow" complex. The discussion weaves together the deep heritage of the region—including the Trail of Tears and Civil War history—with essential road trip experiences like hunting for neon signs, sampling local barbecue and burgers, and discovering the authentic "Mother Road" spirit that draws visitors from around the globe.
