It thus deals with the “shapes” of the states in a metaphorical sense as well as a literal sense.

The show format follows Unger as he travels to various locations, and interviews local people, visits important historical and cultural sites, and provides commentary from behind the wheel of his car as he drives from location to location. Interspersed with these segments are brief historical synopses by notable U.S. historians.

In this live show filmed at San Francisco’s Purple Onion nightclub, the versatile funnyman serves up a healthy dose of his signature wit.
