What if your city almost hosted the FIFA World Cup? We take a look at the American cities that made serious bids but ultimately missed out on becoming host cities for the 2026 tournament. From Washington, D.C. to Denver and the iconic Rose Bowl, we explore how close they came and how different the tournament could have looked.
For the first time ever, the famous Times Square Ball won't just drop on New Year's Eve. This Independence Day, the ball will descend multiple times to celebrate midnight across every U.S. time zone. We discuss this unique new tradition and settle the debate: would you rather experience Times Square on New Year's Eve or the Fourth of
July?
Washington, D.C. may seem like the obvious choice for America's capital today, but history tells a very different story. We travel back to the nation's earliest days to uncover the cities that nearly became the permanent seat of government, including New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Lancaster, and several surprising contenders that could have changed the course of American history.
Finally, we head to Frisco, Texas, where Universal is opening its first-ever theme park designed specifically for young children. We explore what makes Universal Kids Resort different, why Texas was chosen, and how this smaller, family-focused destination could reshape the future of theme park vacations.
