We chat with Matt Tory, a writer and filmmaker based in California, who has recently released a book titled 'Go See America.' Matt shares his experiences of visiting all 50 states and every national park in the contiguous United States. He delves into his upbringing in Sacramento, California, and how his environment influenced his career. Matt also talks about his comedy series 'The Beech Boys' and the mockumentary 'We Make Movies,' providing insights into his inspiration and creative process. Additionally, Matt offers advice for aspiring travelers about visiting lesser-known but equally captivating destinations in the U.S. and shares tips on how to efficiently cover a variety of locations.
