In 1990, filmmaker Peter Brosnan set out to find a legendary Egyptian city that was lost to time and buried under sand dunes.

Where did he make this discovery? In Santa Barbara County just north of Los Angeles.

If you've listened to enough episodes to this

podcast, you'll notice that I often interject places that I've visited.
