Learned some very interesting things on way from Santa Monica to Santa Barbara. Even got my two 18 years old to tune in from time to time and off their phones. It was a little cheesy at times, but totally worth it and I'd love to use it again on other trips. Really did learn a lot and during the quizzes is when the teens piped in the most.
