John Gonzalez and Amy Sherman stop at the Pink Pony on Mackinac Island, where they learn more about the famous Rum Runner, where to get Fudge and Beer of the Week, of course.

Segment 1: John and Amy interview Pink Pony/Chippewa Hotel GM Brian Bailey.

Segment 2 (Listen at 9:57): Susan Wilcox-Olson of Original Murdick's Fudge talks about what she loves about Mackinac Island.

Segment 3 (Listen at 19:18): Chuck Olson, the golf pro at Wawashkamo Golf Club, stops by to talk about why you need to check out this historic course. It was built in 1898. It is located on the top end of Mackinac Island, near the airport. The course was built by Alex Smith of Scotland. "It has a Scottish feel to it...It looks, feels and tastes like something from the old country," he says. "All the buildings are original... In the golf business it's a unique experience for golf professionals because you're half historian along with it."

Segment 4 (Listen at 29:39): Brian Bailey of the Pink Pony returns to the show to talk about food, events and BEER of THE WEEK, which is Stroh's Bohemian-Style Pilsner.
