About this listen

Unscaled isn’t about bucket lists — it’s about tearing them up. Each week, travel journalist Jeremy Long and his co-explorer Amy take you beyond the guidebooks and into the real, raw, ridiculous side of travel. From late-night tacos in Vegas to getting lost in back alleys in Osaka, this is the show for anyone who craves curiosity, chaos, and the kind of stories you can’t plan for. Pack your bags — and the umbrella — it’s gonna get weird.Jeremy G. Long Social Sciences Travel Writing & Commentary

  • Ep. 117 - The Wild World of American Castles
    Jul 12 2025

    Think America doesn’t have castles? Think again. In this episode, we tour the strangest fortresses in the U.S. — from a Gilded Age mega-mansion with its own zip code, to a Texas castle built by a baker, to a Chicago hotel designed by a serial killer. You’ll get heartbreak, egomania, imported ceilings, wine cellars, and one truly medieval waterpark.

    These aren’t castles built for kings — they’re built for love, for ghosts, and for pure American delusion.

  • Ep. 116 - The Strangest Citizens and Characters of San Francisco
    Jul 5 2025

    San Francisco has always been a magnet for the marvelously unhinged. In this episode, we’re not mocking the weird — we’re celebrating it. From self-declared emperors and serial bigamists to leopard-print twins and a woman who may have hexed half of Nob Hill, we dive into the glorious absurdity of a city that treats eccentricity like a civic duty. These aren’t just local legends — they’re reminders that in San Francisco, strange is sacred.
