A new episode of the podcast is up. This should be of interesting to my San Fernando Valley peeps, as it covers all of the unbuilt freeways of the San Fernando Valley: Route 14, Route 64, Route 170, the Sunland and Angeles National Forest Freeways, as well as Mulholland Expressway. We also cover LRN 14 (US 40 in Berkeley) and Sign Route 14 (now Route 91). Sound quality for Tom is better.
