I’ve always assumed that Steves was a leftie. Anybody linked to PBS has to be. Rudy Maxa, too. I do like to watch their TV shows in high def. They’re about as close to Europe as I want to be these days.
If you want to see a tour guide on PBS you’ll probably like, check out Chet Garner’s Texas tour program called “The Daytripper”. I honestly can’t tell his political persuasion, but he’s both informative and hilarious, and all Texan, if you know what I mean. You can also watch his programs online at: http://thedaytripper.com/
In one episode, and I’m sorry I can’t remember which, he did a spoof of Rick Steve’s that was not flattering, but was hilarious. Well worth checking out.
