Once a busy highway, Route 66 is relegated to second-class status by the super-slab Interstate. But instead of falling into obscurity, the Mother Road soldiers on as a 2,400-mile tourist attraction. Join us as we skirt the southeast corner of Kansas, cross Oklahoma, and dive into Texas. Along the way we'll play with Devil's Rope and try to down a 72-ounce steak at the Big Texan. (Episode 2)

It began in the 1920s with the vision of a paved highway that connected Chicago with Los Angeles and the West, rolling through 2,400 miles, 8 states, and 3 time zones while tying together the Great American Southwest. Discover Route 66, the Mother Road, with noted author Michael Wallis, the road of dreamers and wanderers, drifters, and writers, of no-tell motels and salty truck stops.
