OOPS: Hot Air Balloon Racing
Note sull'episodio
Welcome to the Offbeat Olympics Podcast Show: Your Unathletic Guide to Obscure Pastimes!
Josh and Caleb kick off the podcast's inaugural episode by attending the Helen to the Atlantic Hot Air Balloon Race otherwise known as the race "From the Center of the World to the Edge of the Earth." This is the South’s oldest balloon event and the only long-distance hot air balloon race in the U.S. Taking place annually in June in Helen, Georgia, pilots navigate approximately 225 miles to a finish line along Interstate 95, anywhere between Maine and Miami.
We also learn some important very basic facts about how to record a podcast along the way.
