Reel Travels #19: Taylor Hicks Talks State Plate, Travel, Food and NEW MUSIC!

Welcome to Reel Travels and the last episode of 2018! My very special guest is Taylor Hicks! You might know him as the winner of season five of American Idol, but he's been super busy since taking the title! Just recently, he spent three seasons hosting State Plate, the original travel series from INSP, where he trekked across all 50 states in pursuit of the foods that best represent that piece of America.

You can now watch all three seasons on Amazon Prime! (Doooo it!)

Taylor talks to me about his time on the show -- was there anything he didn't like? -- traveling and his new music coming in the spring! Soul Patrolers take note! I also ask him the hard-hitting questions, such as what's his favorite foods? drinks? movies? television shows? We had a blast talking and I'm so happy to bring this to you.

I would like to thank everyone for such a successful year of Reel Travels. I have a lot in the works for next year and I'm excited to bring it all to you. I would like to thank my sponsors (Mario Scalzi of Parker Villas is my sponsor of this episode! https://www.parkervillas.com/), everyone who has purchased my book, A Film & TV Lover's Travel Guide, all of my guests and celebrities who came on Reel Travels this year and you, my listeners, who have given me great feedback, shared my show and made this a success!

See you in 2019!
