Coffee With Jim

On today's program it's a conversation about a century of trials and tribulations on road trips, self publishing, the Lincoln Highway, Route 66, adventure on the open road, flat tires, Model T Fords, and the evolution of American prejudice and related language with author Denny Gibson. It's another road trip inspiring, thought provoking, smile inducing Jim Hinckley's America program with America's storyteller, author Jim Hinckley as the host. 

Today's prgram is sponsored through the magic of crowdfunding on the Patreon platform. It is also sponsored by the iconic Wagon Wheel Motel in Cuba, Missouri, and the time capsule that is the Roadrunner Lodge in Tucumcari, New Mexico. 

 

This morning we visit with Larry Smith, owner and proprietor of the incomparable Motel Safari in Tucumcari, New Mexico. It's a free range conversation about the magic of Route 66, the trials, tribulations and rewards of owning a vintage motel on that storied highway, and road trip adventures in a vintage Fiat. 

Sharing America's story and inspiring road trips by telling people where to go. It's what we do at Jim HInckley's America. 

Next week our guest will be adventurer and author Denny Gibson. We will be talking about his latest book, Tracing a T To Tampa, and adventures on the Lincoln Highway, the Jefferson Highway and iconic Route 66. Come along for the ride! Invite your friends. Let's make it a coffee party.
