Episode 120
What do a Paris museum, a Route 66 road trip, and a carousel pig have in common? They all showed up in the most unexpected way during a walk along the Santa Monica Pier.
In this episode of Pop Culture Passport, I’m sharing the charming, surprising story behind one of California’s most iconic boardwalk carousels—and why one particular animal stopped me in my tracks.
Here’s what you’ll discover:
- Why the Santa Monica Pier is the unofficial “End of Route 66”
- The surprising warrior roots of carousel rides
- Why some carousels include pigs, lions, and other unusual animals
- Hollywood moments filmed right at the Looff Hippodrome
- What carousels symbolize in movies, musicals, and storytelling
🎠 Whether you’re a roadside attraction fan, a carousel lover, or just someone who appreciates the quirky side of travel, this one’s for you.
