On the one hand: I bit off way more than I can chew on this one given that I was trying to put stuff out quickly!

On the other hand: This is a real banger of a video. I hope you enjoy!

[BONUS VIDEO] Riding Oakland's TEMPO With Ren Fitzgerald and Darrell Owens

Alright, so I needed to throw something together quickly since I'll be off the continent, and I may have stumbled across a backdoor pilot for a podcast? On the other hand I have no time for anything, but this was a lot of fun either way! Hope you enjoy, and sorry I'm a couple days late.

This one's for all the people who said we should've gone to St. Pierre and Miquelon after our cross-Canada bus trip!

Also I noticed a lot of comments on the Z Train video saying I should do a video about the Chicago L - the full system deserves a dedicated video at some point, but here's a super old one you may not have seen where Jackson,...

This one came down to the wire, so unfortunately you won't even be able to COMPLETE this video before the public release unless you watch at 2x speed! But I hope you enjoy this beautiful disaster of a trip as we say farewell to the MetroCard tonight after nearly 32 years of swipes. Happy New Year!

UPDATE: Jules in the comments pointed out that I mispronounced "Miramichi," so I've opted to upload a new version to avoid the embarrassment! So this botched version will remain patron-only, and you can go to 11:59 to hear the screwed-up pronunciation for yourselves.

Okay, I'm releasing this a bit early on here to give SOME form of ...

Just an Update (and the full KC/Dallas weekend video again)

Hi everyone! So the Spirit Airlines video today was a stopgap that I uploaded a few weeks ago in case of emergency, and I had to break that glass since I'm still working on the Canada bus video. That's why the credits don't have everyone in them - and once I finish Part 1 of the Canada video, I'll be sure to post it here first!

Also, I lin...

THANK YOU!!!! (+a brief preview of the next big video)

Friends, thank you SO MUCH to everyone who has signed up for Patreon over the past couple days, and indeed to everyone who has been here for longer than that! It's been insane seeing the number of supporters grow, and we're now at over 2,000 patrons! This so far exceeds any expectations I had when I started this, and especially for a channel und...

Okay, I've got some 'splaining to do!

Basically, I plan on releasing the extremely fraught Boston-Kansas City Greyhound and Kansas City-Dallas Spirit Airlines trips as two separate videos...and then I realized that given the REM opening next week, I'm gonna need to end up releasing those two videos in one week anyway because the following ...

[EARLY VIDEO] 50 Years Ago, West Virginia Built the "Future" of Transportation

Another case where a "timely" video (the 50th anniversary of the Morgantown PRT) preempts anything else and forces a fake early release! Well, West Coast Express recently celebrated its 30th anniversary, so next week I think that one will finally see the light of day to the public.

Also, I know I'm behind on everything here, and I'm really...

SO excited for this series to be back, and this has to be one of the most bizarre roller-coaster trips I've ever done! Although full disclosure, since I lost the footage for Oklahoma's least used station, I'm not sure when the next one of these will be...but I CAN say I've got some plans starting to fall into place for next year.

[BONUS VIDEO] I Took the Bus Across Mallorca

I'm cooking a lot of big projects for December right now, so apologies for a fairly benign bonus video this month (it probably won't be the last this year...)! But it did time fairly well with the Palma Metro video, for which it was always meant to be a companion, so that's good!

Welp, apologies for the late upload again...I found myself going through this one a couple times to make sure it was the best it could be - this is one of the more fraught adventures we've done in a while (and the first time I've seen Nathan in months), and it was a blast to put together!
