In this episode of Unscaled, we head to northeastern Arizona for a first-timer’s guide to Petrified Forest National Park — how it was created, why it was protected, and how to experience it without rushing past what matters. We break down the Painted Desert, the park’s best short trails, and the human history etched into stone, then zoom out to the surrounding stretch of Route 66, including Holbrook and Meteor Crater. Deep time, roadside Americana, and a literal hole in the Earth, all in one drive.

Unscaled is more than just a travel show. From visiting their favorite local hotspots in Las Vegas to eating octopus in Osaka, Unscaled is a show designed to make you curious about the world around you and laugh out loud at the mistakes made along the way.
Through their experiences, travel writer Jeremy Long and his co-explorer, Amy, have learned to appreciate the simple things in life, like a comfortable mattress and indoor plumbing.
Each episode is packed with helpful travel tips, recommendations, and an introduction to your new favorite destination from travel industry insiders and influencers. They hope that by sharing their stories (and sometimes failures), they can inspire others to get out and explore the world.
