Daytona resident Gary Rosier has had a passion for automobiles for as long as he can remember, and meets every week with fellow enthusiasts to cruise to car shows in their classic cars. In Daytona, you can even drive your car onto the beach!

To the north of Daytona lies the city of St. Augustine, where the first Spanish settlers landed and built a fort. The area became a melting pot of peoples and cultures, gradually forming a cosmopolitan community. Today, its European heritage is still evident in its architecture.

Carl Halbirt is an archaeologist, and he couldn’t be happier with where he’s living. As he says, “St. Augustine is an archaeological gold mine.” But it’s not really treasure he’s after—a shard of pottery is a thrilling find if he can link it to the first European settlers to colonize the USA.

The first stop on this tour of the East Coast of the United States is rural Georgia, where we meet Hosley Hall, hard at work on his farm. He’s a fan of traditional southern crops and traditional vehicles, though his restored Chevy truck has an unusual agricultural twist!

Hosley Hall loves spending time on his farm, fully aware that, as an African American, his recent ancestors would not have had the option of owning land. Not far away, on Saint Simons Island, a few times a month, a charter boat captain takes funeral services out on the water.

Cap Fendig has the perfect name for his job as a boat captain. Cap offers a wide variety of trips aboard his charter boat, but particularly offers services to families who want to spread their loved ones' ashes at sea.

On Hilton Head Island, between the coastal cities of Charleston and Savannah, Lara and her partner Brian are busy restoring their sailboat in preparation for a new voyage across the seas. Lara sells paintings to raise funds for their project, and in their downtime, the pair enjoy exploring the local coastline by kayak.

The sea off the coast of Charleston is known as one of the best fishing grounds on the East coast. As well as fishermen, there are marine researchers out on the waves. We join a boat where sharks are being caught, tagged, and released in order to monitor their movements and gain a better understanding of their habits and lifecycles.

The Irish Rovers is a Irish-Canadian folk band. Their song "Titanic" is a tribute to the famous RMS Titanic, written on its 100th Anniversary. It tells of the ship’s beginnings and Irish pride, as well as its devastating sinking.

In 1066, William the Conqueror invaded Britain and brought with him fancy French words to add to the English language.

A humorous look at American English from a British point of view.

The English language has changed in many ways over the centuries, but the internet has changed it in just a few decades. Why use a whole sentence when an abbreviation will do?

Time makes sense in small pieces. But when you look at huge stretches of time, it’s almost impossible to wrap your head around things. So KURZGESAGT teamed up with the awesome blog WAITBUTWHY and made this video to help you put things in perspective!
