Episode notes
Grab that panhandle, Janet Varney and John Hodgman are cruisin’ through Florida!
If the state motto looks familiar that’s because it probably is! Our hosts are not terribly big fans of it and its lack of originality is only part of the reason why.
But thankfully, there’s so much more to appreciate on our journey through the sunshine state: oranges, gators, critters, and mammals… but there is action that must be taken IMMEDIATELY in the state bird department.

About the show
Listening to E Pluribus Motto is like taking a road trip with friends Janet Varney and John Hodgman.
