In Episode 32: I Almost Died, guest Ken, a driver for many years, joins the show to talk about his travels all over the United States. As would be the case with traveling across the country, he has seen some incredible, intense, and unimaginable sights. He recounts a time he was involved in a near-fatal accident, road oddities including an exploding meteor, and even his opportunity to purchase some "commercial love." Sit back, relax, and enjoy the ride!
