In 1923, workers hauled thousands of lightbulbs, steel beams, and lumber up a steep canyon to advertise a housing development called Hollywoodland. Meant to last just 18 months, the sign survived collapse, neglect, and decades of change eventually transforming into one of Americas most recognizable landmarks.
But today, the Hollywood Sign is more than a cultural icon its also a highly protected zone. In this episode, we explore how a real estate stunt became a pop symbol, why it was nearly torn down, and how modern-day visitors risk arrest just by getting too close.
