From pink palaces to cowboy boots the size of Cadillacs, the West Coast has never been afraid to get weird.

In this episode of Unscaled, Jeremy and Amy head west for a tour of the coast’s strangest still-standing attractions — starting with California’s flamboyant Madonna Inn, where every room looks like it was designed by a glitter-happy geologist. They wander through redwood kitsch at Trees of Mystery, chat with Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox, and lose themselves among dinosaurs at Oregon’s Prehistoric Gardens.

From Washington’s seaside oddities — including Marsh’s Free Museum and the World’s Largest Frying Pan — to Seattle’s restored Hat ’n’ Boots, California’s Giant Artichoke, and Oregon’s hand-built fairytale wonderland, the Enchanted Forest.

From Florida’s mysterious Coral Castle to Georgia’s rainbow gnome caves and Tennessee’s underground waterfall, the Southeast has never shied away from strange roadside attractions.

In this episode of Unscaled, Jeremy and Amy explore the oddball icons still standing — including mermaids that perform underwater shows, a peanut big enough to tower over a town square, and a thrift store made entirely from lost airline luggage.

We’ll also double up on Lookout Mountain, where Rock City’s neon gnomes meet the glowing waters of Ruby Falls, and end with Atlanta’s eeriest nature walk, the Doll’s Head Trail.

Because in the Southeast, if it’s weird enough, someone’s probably built it, painted it, or dressed it up in neon.

Cheese castles, corn palaces, giant ketchup bottles — the Midwest has perfected the art of the roadside oddball. In this episode of Unscaled, Jeremy and Amy roll through the heartland to find the attractions that are still standing (and still weird) in 2025.

From Wisconsin’s sprawling House on the Rock to Minnesota’s world-famous ball of twine, South Dakota’s corny palace, Michigan’s gravity-defying Mystery Spot, and more, it’s a full tour of Midwest kitsch. We’ll even pay tribute to a cheese fortress, a pickle barrel cottage, and a massive ketchup bottle that doubles as a water tower.

Because in the Midwest, bigger isn’t just better — it’s usually stranger.

From Cadillacs half-buried in a Texas field to clown-filled motels and alien shrines in the desert, the American Southwest is home to some of the strangest roadside attractions still standing. In this episode of Unscaled, Jeremy and Amy hit the road for a tour of the Southwest’s oddball icons — spray-painted cars, giant pistachios, haunted clowns, bat shows, dinosaurs, desert mountains of paint, UFO museums, and more.

It’s a reminder that no matter how serious life gets, the open road still has room for the bizarre, the kitschy, and the just plain weird.
