- If you've driven from Southern California to Las Vegas, or vice versa, you've probably passed and wondered how Zzyzx Road came to be. This is the story of a snake oil salesman, and his attempts to sell health cures from a desert oasis.

I appreciate the kind words! Thanks for watching, I hope you enjoy them.
By making it a place name, Zzyzx became the last word in the English language. Once enough people accepted it as word, it was a word. 🙏
Very interesting! Thanks for taking me along.
My pleasure!
My favorite Rush song
Really interesting.
the part about the fish in the pond which have been unintentionally preserved is interesting.
Fuck yeah dude
at least the fish are ok .
00:36 leave it to the federal government to take what they want and not give a damn about who was there first. I am sure there was bloodshed involved! Shame on them for almost exterminating the indigenous peoples of this continent. Going back in history and seeing what our government has done sometimes make me feel ashamed to be Caucasian! 🤠🌵🌵🌵🇺🇲
It's an unfortunate reality for sure
Ashamed to be white? Stop.
