An interesting little tidbit: Patty Hearst produced, hosts and narrates a Travel Channel special on Hearst Castle. The SF Gate review says “You expect, given the title, ‘Secrets of San Simeon With Patricia Hearst,’ to get some revelatory hidden gems, but outside of a few anecdotal and visual tidbits, much of the two-hour Travel Channel special is a standard tour of a wonderfully crafted castle.” I’ve been down to Hearst Castle twice and enjoyed looking at the living areas more than the vast entertainment spaces. The view down to the coast is nice too, and sometimes you can spot the zebra(s?) running about with the horses on the ranch.
