Living in the very heart of the country, we Kansas Citians are blessed with a uniquely intimate view of America. All around us are miles and miles of horizon filled with some of the strangest people on earth. At any time, we can hop in our cars to seek them out. Or we can let the hosts of "Rare Visions and Roadside Revelations," the TV Weasels, do the traveling for us. Every week a new episode features these three Kansas City kooks hitting the highway in search of homegrown art and campy roadside attractions (and a friendly game of catch from time to time). Dedicated viewers have watched Randy Mason, Don Bayberger and Michael Murphy discover Colorado's Genoa Wonder Tower, with its view of six states(!), two-headed calves and loads of junk; Wisconsin's Mt. Horeb Mustard Museum, where the proprietor sings a mustard song and has been known to wear his mustard man costume; and the Wigwam Village Motel in Cave City, Kentucky ("Concrete lodging at its best!").
