  • 223. Getty Center, Los Angeles - The History, Art, and Gardens of the Getty
    Oct 24 2026
    Explore the Getty Center in Los Angeles with Johnny Mac on Travel Is Back. Begin with the tram ride into Richard Meier's hilltop campus, then follow the museum's history from J. Paul Getty's private collection and the ranch-house museum of 1954 to the Getty Villa, his bequest, and the opening of the Getty Center in 1997.

    Inside, consider Vincent van Gogh's Irises, European paintings, illuminated manuscripts, and photography. Learn why conservation and research are part of the Getty's work, then head outdoors to Robert Irwin's Central Garden, the cactus garden, and the sculpture terraces.

    The episode also distinguishes the Getty Center from the Getty Villa and covers casual food options, free timed-entry reservations, paid parking, gallery renovations, and planning a manageable museum visit. Check Getty's current visitor information and artwork availability before setting out.

  • 222. Lake Arrowhead, California - Rim of the World Highway
    Oct 17 2026
    Take the mountain road to Lake Arrowhead with Johnny Mac on Travel Is Back. This episode follows Rim of the World Highway from the San Bernardino approach into the ridge communities, with time for designated viewpoints and the signed connection to Lake Arrowhead Village.

    Once you're parked, explore Rocket Fizz, And Then, and Mr. G's for Toys in Lake Arrowhead Village. There's time to consider lunch, a narrated ride aboard the Lake Arrowhead Queen, and what visitors should know about access to the private lake.

    If you're continuing toward Big Bear, hear more about that separate destination in Travel Is Back episodes 184 and 185. Before driving, check current road conditions, chain controls, and forest alerts rather than relying on an old itinerary.
