About the Show
Host Rick Sebak, the driving force behind "A Hot Dog Program," "A Flea Market Documentary," and "Sandwiches That You Will Like," presents a droll and informative look at wacky architecture that salutes all-American energy and individuality built into some unforgettable structures in "A Program About Unusual Buildings & Other Roadside Stuff."
Celebrate some of America’s goofiest and most interesting places, like Long Island’s duck-shaped Big Duck and the National Fresh Water Fishing National Hall of Fame (in the shape of a five-story-tall fish) in Heyward, Wisconsin.
In Mitchell, South Dakota, the unusual Corn Palace, decorated in corn and various other grains, has attracted visitors since 1892. Originally designed to convince homesteaders of the rich farming possibilities in the state, the Corn Palace is now a busy civic center celebrated every August with a festival.
