Episode 154

Hollywood has always loved beaches and boardwalks, but sometimes the places you see on screen aren't where you think they are.

This week on Pop Culture Passport, we're visiting some of America's most iconic coastal filming locations, from the vampire-filled Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk in The Lost Boys to New York's legendary Coney Island, the storytelling soul of Asbury Park, and the endlessly versatile beaches of Malibu.

Along the way, we'll uncover the surprising story behind Boardwalk Empire and discover why one of television's most famous boardwalks wasn't filmed in Atlantic City at all.

Whether you're a movie buff, a TV fan, or simply love discovering the stories behind iconic places, this episode will have you looking at America's beaches and boardwalks in a whole new way.
