Dirty Sodas & Fluffy Cows: Adventures on the Road to Yellowstone

Sharlotte and Aunt Steve are back with another wild stretch of their road trip adventure — and this one has everything from “dirty sodas” in Utah to snowmen disasters in Wyoming. Along the way, they talk about homeschooling on the road, missing friends back home, accidentally almost getting stuck at Walmart, and discovering a dairy farm with life-changing raspberry cheesecake ice cream. They also share stories from the Tetons, lessons about fluffy cows (a.k.a. bison), and why every day on the road feels like a new adventure. Next stop: Yellowstone National Park. Expect laughs, sibling-style roasting, snack reviews, and a surprisingly heartfelt look at life on the move.

Burgers, Bacon, and Byways

In this episode of Middle School Miles, Sharlotte and Stephen embark on an unforgettable journey with Uncle Roy. From savoring In-N-Out burgers in Las Vegas to hiking the breathtaking landscapes of Zion and Canyonlands, they share stories and laughs from their epic road trip. Tune in to hear about their culinary adventures, close calls on cliff edges, and how they manage schoolwork on the road—all while enjoying the beauty of America's vast national parks. Join us for a fun-filled exploration with lots of surprises along the way!

Milkshakes, Mountains, and a Life-Changing Burger

Sharlotte and Aunt Steve cover a whirlwind stretch of their road trip—from Kansas City to New Mexico, Arizona, and Las Vegas. Along the way: a science museum inside a train station, climbing through slot canyons, messy milkshake moments, and a very strong opinion about In-N-Out Burger. Plus, they share what it’s really like grocery shopping and doing life on the road—before heading off to their next big adventure: the national parks.

Road Trips, Rule-Breaking, and Really Good Donuts

This week on Middle School Miles, Sharlotte and Aunt Steve recap their adventures through Little Rock and Tulsa—featuring a presidential photo fail, donuts that might beat Krispy Kreme, and a massive playground they almost missed. From art deco walking tours to food hall sushi and matcha debates, it’s a mix of travel, laughs, and real talk about life on the road (and online school).

Ice Cream Dreams and Important Conversations

In this episode of Middle School Miles, the journey takes a more meaningful turn—without losing its humor along the way. Starting the day in Memphis with chocolate croissants and bagels, the trip quickly shifts into something deeper with a visit to the National Civil Rights Museum. Through exhibits, stories, and powerful moments, Sharlotte reflects on fairness, equality, and what it really means to treat people the way you want to be treated. The conversation explores big questions in a very real, middle-school way—what matters, why speaking up is important, and how history connects to what’s happening today. From there, it’s back on the road toward Little Rock, Arkansas (with future stops, ice cream debates, and questionable “great ideas” along the way). As always, school doesn’t just happen on a screen—it happens through experiences, conversations, and the world outside the window. It’s a mix of humor, curiosity, and growth—proving that sometimes the most important lessons happen far beyond the classroom.
