The town of Bridgeport off Highway 395 is known mostly for its historic courthouse, stunning mountain views and as a gateway to the outdoors. But down the road is a little-known landmark that plays a key role in testing Marines before they deploy to America's longest war. This week Steve Milne spoke to musician Mark Edward Duvall about his song "395."

All I Want To Do Is Drive

Highway 395 passes some uniquely California sites as it runs along the Eastern Sierra. There are dusty gold rush ghost towns and the moonscape of the Mono Lake tufa. The highest spot in the lower 48 states — Mt. Whitney — and the lowest — Death Valley.This summer take a road trip with CapRadio, but away from the coasts and the big cities, and along a stretch of road that reveals a different kind of California.  It may not always be the postcard version of California. The stops along the road may surprise you.We'll introduce you to a mountain that tests the mettle of Marines, explore the state's fights over water, examine the bitter history of a Japanese internment camp and more.

Trailer: Turn On To Highway 395

Take a California road trip away from the coast, away from the cities, and see the state from a different perspective. CapRadio's 395 podcast follows Highway 395 along the Eastern Sierra. The stops may surprise you, and change how you see the state.

I’m really disappointed that this podcast withered and died before it even got to 10 episodes. The 395 is rich with history and lore all of which is just waiting to be exposed and brought to the surface.

Where did the rest of the episodes go??

Suuuuuper boring! Almost fell asleep while driving 395
