    Twenty-six letters, thousands of miles, and one unforgettable journey. In our series finale, Scott Showalter looks back at the "ABCs of the Strangest Landmarks." We recap the highs (The Jolly Green Giant), the lows (The Mystery Spot), and the just plain weird (Voodoo Doughnut). Scott discusses the common thread that ties these landmarks together—the human desire to leave a mark and the stories we tell along the open road. Plus, we answer listener questions and reveal what’s next for the "Show Me Your Trips" engine.

    We’ve finally reached the end of the alphabet, and we’re going out on a high note—specifically, 1,500 feet above the canyon floor. In this episode, Scott Showalter explores Zion National Park, a place Mormon pioneers named "the heavenly city of God." We dive into the sheer scale of the Navajo sandstone cliffs, the engineering marvel of the Zion-Mount Carmel Tunnel, and the adrenaline-pumping reality of hiking Angels Landing. Scott also uncovers the park’s original name, Mukuntuweap, and why it was changed to attract more travelers. It’s a breathtaking conclusion to our cross-country scavenger hunt through the strangest and most beautiful landmarks in America.
