Route 66 has long been a deeply ingrained aspect of American culture, and in this episode, Sean is joined by pop star Sinitta to explore how the road has become a symbol of the country’s identity and hope.


They chat to friend of the podcast Jim Hinckley, who gives them an insight into how the highway became an American icon. They then pay a visit to Ohio, where they chat to fine art photographer and documentarian David J Schwartz, whose work explores the people, places and living culture of Route 66.
