The Cannonball Run Pt. I - How are these guys not in JAIL?
Past Gas by Donut Media - Podcast tekijän mukaan Donut - Maanantaisin
In this episode, we dive into the history of the “Cannonball Baker Sea-to-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash”, a cross-country race from New York City to Los Angeles. This real life event inspired a film of the same name, but as we’ll see, the real thing was a lot more than Burt Reynolds’ mustache. We explore the history of American cross-country racing, including early records, and why the 1971 running was organized as a protest against the government!
