92: Our Visit to the Beat Museum, Part 01

In High School I read Jack Kerouac’s novel On the Road, like everybody else. So, when we were in San Francisco this past spring we stopped at the Beat Museum downtown, to learn more about the movement Kerouac helped found a half century ago. In this episode we speak with Beat Museum guide and poet Brandon Loberg about the museum and the Beat Movement generally. Find us on all podcasting platforms.

Personally curated histories from hometowns around America. Join Shane Waters as he travels to places of forgotten historical significance and shares these hometown stories with listeners. Like his visit to the Cherokee Nation in Cherokee, North Carolina where he interviewed the Cherokee at The Museum of the Cherokee Indian. Or when he traveled to The Biltmore Estate, the largest home in America, to share the time when some of the nation’s most prized artwork was hidden within their walls to protect them from the Nazi’s. We all love hearing the unknown stories of the places we visit when planning a trip - like the Redwoods National Park, Grand Canyon National Park, or Sun Studio. But what about Parker's Cross Roads, Tennessee? Or the Island in Michigan where the only American King ruled? But if you also enjoy traveling vicariously then this is also a podcast for you.
