In this episode, Shannon shares the true story of his solo cross-country trip during a time when he needed space, adventure, and a little bit of something new. From spontaneous stops to unexpected conversations, it’s a ride full of insight and local food. Then, in the No Idea segment, Shannon offers a playful PSA: How to Be a Good Passenger—because being in the passenger seat is more than just picking the music.
