A Weekly Column by Jedediah “Jed” Wanderlust
Offered freely for syndication
Dispatches from a Map Dot
About the Column:
Dispatches from a Map Dot is a weekly satirical travel column that begins in Why, Arizona and ends in Whynot, North Carolina — with everything in between up for interpretation.
Each Dispatch explores a real American town (or a convincing imposter), weaving small absurdities, misunderstood folklore, and Jed’s deeply flawed travel logic into something between a fever dream and a local news tip.
