At the start of 2025, after 8 years of focusing on Cities across the nation that our hosts Robert & Mary Carey have personally visited, we altered the popular “Destination Spotlight” series of the show to focus on States, doing it alphabetically.  That meant Alabama was first and it occurred on Jan 18th 2025, followed by Alaska on Feb 1st, Arizona on Feb 8th, Arkansas on Mar 1st, California on Mar 29th, Colorado on Apr 26th, Connecticut on May 10th, Delaware on May 31st, Florida on Jun 14th, Georgia on Jun 21st, Hawaii on Jul 12th, Idaho on Jul 26th, Illinois on Aug 9th, Indiana on Sept 6th, Iowa was Sept 20th, Kansas on Oct 18th, Kentucky on Oct 25th and Louisiana on Nov 1st, before we turned to the “M” named States with Maine happening on Nov 22nd and Maryland on Dec 6th.  Then the calendar flipped to 2026 with The Careys beginning the year traveling for 25 days on the big “Let’s Go America! Tour” – Miami to Los Angeles, that had them transiting the Panama Canal as a way to supercharge our America 250 coverage, before they picked up with Massachusetts on Jan 31st 2026.  Michigan followed on February 7th, Minnesota on March 7th and then Mississippi on March 28th.  Then came the big “Let’s Go America! Tour” – Park City, and upon returning from those Utah travels, it was time for Missouri on April 18th 2026.  As we moved into May, Montana got its turn to be showcased, and during the live national broadcast of America’s #1 Travel Radio Show on May 9th 2026, Voices of Montana Tourism Executive Director joined the show to talk “Big Sky Country.”

Montana is America’s 41st State, admitted to the Union back in 1889.  As National Travel & Tourism Week was ending, Robert & Mary discussed some of their personal experiences in Montana with Dax, talked-up the impact Travel & Tourism has on the State, they als0 conversed on aspects of Bozeman, Missoula, Great Falls, Billings, Butte, Helena, Fort Peck Lake and more.  And since we’re just 8 weeks away from it becoming officially, they also got some input on upcoming America 250 celebrations happening in Montana and more.
