The Idiot has hired 15-year old Alexander “Xander” Slater to handle global teen marketing for The Idiot and the Odyssey trilogy of travel narratives. Slater, a high school sophomore in Las Vegas, Nevada, became interested in the position when he first learned about The Idiot’s walk around the Mediterranean Sea six years ago.
Antibes, the French city on the Mediterranean Sea where The Idiot launched his 20-year walk around the Med in 1998, is not only featured in the first chapter in The Idiot and the Odyssey: Walking the Mediterranean (2008).

Why did The Idiot spend four days leisurely driving down the coast of the Pacific Ocean from Northern California to Los Angeles? Will Baby Gaga, The Idiot’s 3.68-year-old granddaughter, and Baby Gogo, The Idiot’s grandson who turned one on May 3, even remember the historic visit by their grandfather?
