The most important places in American history aren’t where you think. Some of the moments that shaped this country happened in towns with one stoplight, a single gas station, and a tumbleweed rolling across Main Street. Do you ever wonder where the Cold War got its name? Which town spent three years officially not existing while it helped win a world war? Or where the most famous invention in American history finally got off the ground? One of these towns could be in your state, and you may have even driven through it without knowing what happened there. On today’s episode of Flyover Focus, we count down 10 small towns that changed American history. Tune in here!

Today’s sponsor, Particle, makes a 6-in-1 face cream specifically for men designed to target common signs of aging, including eye bags, dark spots, wrinkles, dryness, and loss of firmness.

Ohio Leads Nation in Affordability Drop

Ohio suffered the steepest drop in homeownership affordability of any state from 2020 to 2025, according to a new National Housing Conference report.

The share of Ohio occupations able to afford a typically priced home with 10% down plunged from 67% to 26%, and five of the state’s metros ranked among the nation’s 25 steepest declines.

Mansfield fared worst at No. 2 nationally, as the income needed to buy a typical home there jumped 121% to almost $63,000. Cleveland, Springfield, Toledo, and Akron also made the list. You can read the full report here.

Crew Blank Cincinnati

The Columbus Crew blanked FC Cincinnati 2-0 Sunday night, silencing TQL Stadium and completing a season sweep of their Hell Is Real rivals.

Gonzalo Tapia opened the scoring with an unmarked header off a Brais Méndez corner kick, then set up Taha Habroune for a goal early in the second half. You can watch highlights from the match here.

With four wins in their last five games, the Crew sit one point behind Cincinnati for the Eastern Conference’s ninth and final playoff spot.

Twenty One Pilots Rock Ohio Stadium

Columbus’ own Twenty One Pilots packed Ohio Stadium Saturday night for a sold-out hometown show, the biggest of the duo’s career.

Tyler Joseph and Josh Dun, who got their start in small local venues like The Basement, delivered a roughly three-hour, 35-plus-song set featuring three stages, fireworks, and a drone light show.

Members of The Ohio State University Marching Band’s drumline joined the duo on stage for a cover of Seven Nation Army. You can watch that here.
