Episode 108 is very Rhode Island-centric as we celebrate the smallest state in the country.
It begins with a bit of pulling back the curtain. I spoke at length in Episode 30 about my friend Matt who tragically passed away in 2017. In that episode, I mentioned making two lifelong friends at virtually the same time. One was Matt and the other was Barry. This week I will share some of what makes my friend Barry one of the most important people to ever grace my life.
There are hundreds and hundreds of beautiful cities and towns in the six New England states. Some are well-known and well-traveled, while others are more nondescript. The latter are some of the best ones to visit as they exemplify what New England is all about. This week's Road Trip will do just that as we travel to the small town of Scituate, Rhode Island.
The X-Games are a well-known extreme sports competition event taking place in both the summer and winter. Over the last quarter-century, they have shone a light on skateboarding, snowboarding, mountain biking, cycle racing, and much more. For as world-renowned as these games are today did you know they got their start right here in New England? This week we go Back In the Day to the very first X-Games that took place in Rhode Island in 1995.
There is going to be a brand new Top 5 that showcases some of the weird and wacky laws on the books in Rhode Island. You will have to hear them to believe them!
Of course, there will be a new This Week In History and Time Capsule as well centered around the first successful transatlantic balloon flight.
