Here at Nerd Roamer, we love nerding out about the history, science and culture of the places we travel, but we were tired of burying our heads in guidebooks with so much out there to see and do. Let us do the heavy lifting on digging up fun facts and fascinating stories on the places your family visits. Whether you are on the road or just want to learn more about the world out there, we’ve got you covered. Deep Dives for Long Drives. This is Nerd Roamer. Roam Wisely.

The first in our Nerd Roamer's Guide series. Come with us as we trek deep into the hardwood forests of the Appalachian Mountains to uncover the hidden history and amazing wildlife that makes the Great Smoky Mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina so special.

In this episode, we cover the history of the park from before the arrival of humans to the present day, and also cover the unique ecology, varied habitats, and unique creatures that helped the Great Smoky Mountains attain International Biosphere Reserve Status.
