About Across the DinerVerse

Searching for the heart and soul of America one diner at a time! Podcast host, John Murphy, travels to diners across the U.S.A. interviewing everyday people about their lives, their community and how they feel about America--the good, the bad and the ugly!

Murphy is an Emmy-winning writer and producer and spent more than two decades hosting morning-drive radio shows in markets such as Los Angeles, San Diego, Seattle and Portland.
