Map Men, with Jay Foreman, explains why maps contain places that do not exist, such as trap streets, fake alleys and invented towns. It looks at why mapmakers add them and what they say about copyright and map making.

HN people recommend it as a fun take on fake map entries and trap streets, and praise the Map Men series as a whole.
