We Want to Know: What’s a Place You Love That Has Defied Its Bad Reputation?

We want to hear about a place you love that has defied its bad reputation. Maybe there’s a drab local mall that’s full of chain stores and overpriced frozen yogurt that strangely gives you a sense of comfort. Maybe you love eating at chain restaurants while traveling. Maybe all your high school friends dunk on your hometown, but it’s the place you want to live forever. Give us a call at 315-992-7902 and leave a message telling us your name and story. Our mailbox will cut you off after two minutes so please call in if you get disconnected. Or you can record a voice memo and email it to us at hello@atlasobscura.com.

After 25 years at the Late Night desk, Conan realized that the only people at his holiday party are the men and women who work for him. Over the years and despite thousands of interviews, Conan has never made a real and lasting friendship with any of his celebrity guests. So, he started a podcast to do just that. Deeper, unboundedly playful, and free from FCC regulations, Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend is a weekly opportunity for Conan to hang out with the people he enjoys most and perhaps find some real friendship along the way.

This is a great show. I discovered Atlas from the website, but the show is even better. Episodes are well explained in the perfect length. This gives you an opportunity to explore and dig deeper further on your own if you find what you learned captivating. Highly recommend
Delightful inspiration

I love all the quirky places and experiences that are highlighted on the podcast. I love traveling, and try to work in seeing something I’ve heard about. We just visited PistachiolLand in Alamogordo, NM and the Casa de Azucar in El Paso, TX.

I love learning new things, whether it’s new places or fascinating creatures or strange places, I feel like my mind can never take in enough information! I also love impressing my friends with stories but not having to do any of the research! Seriously, I’ve been a faithful listener for years. I love that the information is in digestible language and length, and I feel like the hosts are friends. Thank you for making us curious about the world!!
Clever topics, too many add.
