The Show

We've all been to stuffy museums. You know, the kind of places where you're not allowed to touch anything and you have to be really quiet. Well forget about those boring bone-yards because Dave & Dave are traveling across the Commonwealth, uncovering the quirkiest, most offbeat, and just plain fun, small-museums Pennsylvania has to offer. And more than that, we introduce you to the people behind the collections, and find out what drives them to not only keep this stuff, but show it off!

Dave & Dave (Rhodes & Hallewell) produce and host this remarkable collection of Pennsylvania's "true" riches. Our style, part Barnum & Bailey, part Hanna-Barbera, will make for the most un-museum, museum show ever! And that's a good thing.

Watch the trailer!
