Road To Weirdsville

Hosts Mark Sceurman and Mark Moran go on holiday--something most Americans are doing less because they're working more, 100 more hours a year than the famously industrious Japanese. On average, Americans get four weeks less vacation time than Europeans--and they don't even use the time they're allotted! What is behind this weird behavior? Can Americans be convinced to take a breather? Our two Marks show overworked Americans just how to take back their vacations--the weird way. They head to some of the top US vacation spots--New York City, Las Vegas, New Orleans, Los Angeles, and Florida to find the roads less traveled in these somewhat homogenized spots. On this madcap tour of America, Mark and Mark trek the country in search of bizarre, unexplained, or just plain zany stories that somehow flew under the radar screen of American History. So put away your textbooks and get ready for something a little more colorful.
