“Behind the Mitten” is Michigan’s premiere travel radio show and Podcast, and it has more than 430 episodes. It is co-hosted by veteran journalist John Gonzalez and former chef/beer expert Amy Sherman. The show has been recognized by the Michigan Association of Broadcasters as Best in Category.

This week show is all about Michigan apples! Freshly harvested apples are coming in off the trees from all over the state, and popping up in Michigan farmers markets and stores. With over 24 BILLION bushels of apples harvested each year, Michigan is an apple powerhouse. We talk with Diane Smith, executive director of the Michigan Apple Committee, about this year’s harvest, our race to beat New York every year, and just what makes Honeycrisp apples not just delicious, but also a little bit more expensive. Then, our buddy Scott Newman-Bale, CEO of Short’s Brewing and Starcut Ciders, joins us to talk about hard cider. Amy and Gonzo share a few of their favorite orchards, and what they are looking forward to this fall.
