Produced by Chapman University, the Automobile Club of Southern California and Jeff Swimmer, this touching documentary takes you on a behind-the-scenes tour of the amazing world of Huell Howser and his CALIFORNIA’S GOLD, VISITING and ROAD TRIP series.

For more than 30 years, Howser produced hundreds of episodes and made stars of everyday people and explored of the state of California – from its natural beauty to its historical landmarks - and of course, the unforgettable visits to homespun family businesses and weird and arcane roadside attractions. In the film, viewers will also learn how the series were shot and edited, and will meet Howser’s friends, colleagues and the production team who discuss his work and his offbeat, legendary adventures.
