Young Broke & Beautiful

Broke-Ass Stuart visits cities, unearthing the oddball subcultures and experiences that make them excellent places for broke-ass travelers.

Stuart stops by Baltimore to check out singer Landis Expandis' boom box collection, gets a taste of crabs, parties with the locals, listens in on a rhyme fest with Ms Streamz, visits Mink Stole at the American Visionary Museum, attends a live hypnotherapy performance and moves his body at a live show with Dan Deacon.

Stuart tours Boston Brewery and takes a mixologist's taste test, visits the Penny Arcade Expo (PAX) with MC Frontalot, judges a burlesque competition, parties in a Steampunk Mansion, hangs out with a nerdcore biker gang, and laughs it up with a local comedy troupe.

Stuart starts off his trip to New Orleans in a cemetery where he is welcomed by a vampire who hooks Stuart up with his first pair of fangs. Then it's off to the swamp lands of Acadiana with his tour guide where they drop in to a gumbo jam session with the locals and a culinary lesson on crawfish. In order to rest up, Stuart stops by Blue Moon Saloon & Guesthouse and ends his trip at an art-live space performance by Sissy Bounce rapper Big Freedia.

Join Broke Ass Stuart on an American Dream Safari as he cruises the streets of Memphis with Three Six Mafia's Al Kapone at his side touring the music scene history of Memphis. Stuart also ventures to an old brothel-turned-bar, an authentic juke joint where he learns of a murderous story, a visit to the Crossroads Monument, the Shack Up Inn and Paula & Raiford's Disco where anything goes.

Broke Ass Stuart rolls into Detroit visiting Techno legends Kyle Hall, Juan Atkins and catches a performance from Hip-hop legend Invincible. Along the way Stuart takes a ride in a go-kart, parties at a speakeasy, has words with ex-gangster Larry Mongo, purchases some land for $12.00 and indulges in a Blood Bath party.
