I traveled the stretch of Route 66 from Arcadia to Bristow with Caitlin from Oklahoma’s Credit Union. This Spielventure episode features POPS, the Arcadia Round Barn, John’s Place, Manvel Avenue Coffee, Destinations, Route 66 Interpretive Center, Route 66 Bowl, and Dude & Dot Mercantile. We spent an entire day visiting sights from the area between Oklahoma City and Tulsa, and there was still more to see, so make this trip a full-day experience.
I’m excited to release the first episode with the new branding style. I’m still figuring out what the next Spielventure episode will be as I’ve been busy with client work. Do expect an episode of “Yes! Science!” and a new Art & Victory to be coming out next.

With The Show Starts Now video library app shut down, I’ll be releasing content from the platform on my YouTube channel throughout the summer. In my process of streamlining my workflow, I am transitioning from Patreon to Spielventure.com, so be sure to sign up there to help support my productions. There are some new perks that I can only do there, such as discounts on merch and access to the sticker club. I’ll still make posts here in the meantime.

After celebrating 15 years of producing my local travel show, Uncovering Oklahoma, I’ve decided to rebrand and pivot to streamline my work, allow for new opportunities, and expand my reach. Spielventure takes the versatile German word Spiel, translating to game or play, and then combines it with Adventure. I’ve always been passionate about connecting people to new places, people, and experiences, so this new branding still aligns with my mission.
With this pivot, I’ve shut down The Show Starts Now streaming video library app. Long story short, I stretched myself out too thin, hoping to get things started to make money and then hire people to keep everything going. However, that didn’t happen, and I want to avoid falling into a sunk-cost problem, hence the streamlined pivot to one show, one handle, and one website. I’ll still do different segments or series – just under one channel now. Now, the videos on the app will be released over time to the Spielventure YouTube channel because I want people to watch them, go to these places, and have these incredible experiences.
The video posted here provides more details about my entrepreneurial journey, the why, and what the future holds. I have a bunch of new content coming out, so please become a supporting member for early access, buy some merchandise, or make a one-time donation. Visit the new website at spielventure.com
