Happy birthday to the Mother Road, and to the entire US numbered highway system, all turning 100 in 2026. Host Matt Trump takes a loving, historically grounded tour through the soul of American freedom: the open road. From the first cross-country drive in a 1903 Winton motorcar to the Lincoln Highway to the birth of Route 66 from the Federal Highway Act of 1926, Matt traces how America built its road culture from the ground up, literally by private citizens with paper maps and guts. He also sounds the alarm on the NHTSA vehicle kill switch mandate, a Biden-era law pushing real-time AI surveillance of drivers, and what it means for the future of American freedom behind the wheel. A celebration, a history lesson, and a quiet warning.
