Is that confidence, or is that going too far?Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr discuss Underwood's comments, whether he meant the best player from the state of Michigan or the best player from the University of Michigan, and how he compares to names like Charles Woodson, Andre Rison, Tyrone Wheatley, Antonio Gates, Jerome Bettis, Chad Henne, J.J. McCarthy, and others.They also look at Underwood's freshman season, his development, Michigan's quarterback history, and what he still has to prove before claims like that can be taken seriously.00:31 — Intro00:40 — Tom's goal for the show01:03 — Bryce Underwood's big quote03:20 — Did he mean Michigan high school football or the University of Michigan?05:01 — Comparing Underwood to Michigan legends and freshman quarterbacks07:37 — Bryce Underwood vs. Chad Henne as freshmen10:22 — Terrelle Pryor comparison and freshman QB development11:41 — J.J.

It's a Christmas miracle – another episode before year's end, thanks to producer Joe getting married and leaving Emily to discover he makes them sound way better than they actually are. After Crown and Core debuts Michigan's first "outdoor hotel" (it's a campground with aspirations) and This Week in Michigan History reveals the 1948 Supreme Court ban on female bartenders lasted until 1976, Pure Michigan's Kelly Wolgamott joins to celebrate the campaign's 20th anniversary. Kelly explains navigating budget cuts from $30 million to $17 million while maintaining Fast Company "Brands That Matter" status, promotes Michigan's ranking as second nationally with 40+ ski areas, and champions winter tourism from the I-500 to frozen Tahquamenon Falls. The conversation covers supporting local businesses through travel gift cards, developing a strategic plan with 600+ industry stakeholders, and why redirecting online purchases to Michigan businesses could create 12,000 jobs. Between Grand Rapids' first mocktail bar (Emily predicted this nine years ago), record holiday travel with 122 million Americans road-tripping, and Kelly casually mentioning she swam the Mackinac Straits in three-foot waves, this episode delivers exactly what the title promises.

WhoRyan Brown, Director of Golf & Ski at The Mountaintop at Grand Geneva, WisconsinRecorded onJune 17, 2025About the Mountaintop at Grand GenevaClick here for a mountain stats overviewOwned by: Marcus HotelsLocated in: Lake Geneva, WisconsinYear founded: 1968Pass affiliations: NoneClosest neighboring U.S. ski areas: Alpine Valley (:23), Wilmot Mountain (:29), Crystal Ridge (:48), Alpine Hills Adventure Park (1:04)Base elevation: 847 feetSummit elevation: 962 feetVertical drop: 115 feetSkiable acres: 30Average annual snowfall: 34 inchesTrail count: 21 (41% beginner, 41% intermediate, 18% advanced)Lift count: 6 (3 doubles, 1 ropetow, 2 carpets)Why I interviewed himOf America's various mega-regions, the Midwest is the quietest about its history. It lacks the quaint-town Colonialism and Revolutionary pride of the self-satisfied East, the cowboy wildness and adobe earthiness of the West, the defiant resentment of the Lost Glory South. Our seventh-grade Michigan History class stapled together the state's timeline mostly as a series of French explorers passing through on their way to somewhere more interesting. They were followed by a wave of industrial loggers who mowed the primeval forests into pancakes. Then the factories showed up. And so the state's legacy was framed not as one of political or cultural or military primacy, but of brand, the place that stamped out Chevys and Fords by the tens of millions.To understand the Midwest, then, we must look for what's permanent. The land itself won't do. It's mostly soil, mostly flat. Great for farming, bad for vistas. Dirt doesn't speak to the soul like rock, like mountains. What humans built doesn't tell us a much better story. Everything in the Midwest feels too new to conceal ghosts. The largest cities rose late, were destroyed in turn by fires and freeways, eventually recharged with arenas and glass-walled buildings that fail to echo or honor the past. Nothing lasts: the Detroit Pistons built the Palace of Auburn Hills in 1988 and developers demolished it 32 years later; the Detroit Lions (and, for a time, the Pistons) played at the Pontiac Silverdome, a titanic, 82,600-spectator stadium that opened in 1976 and came down in 2013 (37 years old). History seemed to bypass the region, corralling the major wars to the east and shooing the natural disasters to the west and south. Even shipwrecks lose their doubloons-and-antique-cannons romance in the Midwest: the Great Lakes most famous downed vessel, the SS Edmund Fitzgerald, sank into Lake Superior in 1975. Her cargo was 26,535 tons of taconite ore pellets. A sad story, but not exactly the sinking of the Titanic.Our Midwest ancestors did leave us one legacy that no one has yet demolished: names. Place names are perhaps the best cultural relics of the various peoples who occupied this land since the glaciers retreated 12,000-ish years ago. Thousands of Midwest cities, towns, and counties carry Native American names. “Michigan” is derived from the Algonquin “Mishigamaw,” meaning “big lake”; “Minnesota” from the Sioux word meaning “cloudy water.” The legacies of French explorers and missionaries live on in “Detroit” (French for “strait”), “Marquette” (17th century French missionary Jacques Marquette), and “Eau Claire” (“clear water”).But one global immigration funnel dominated what became the modern Midwest: 50 percent of Wisconsin's population descends from German, Nordic, or Scandinavian countries, who arrived in waves from the Colonial era through the early 1900s. The surnames are everywhere: Schmitz and Meyer and Webber and Schultz and Olson and Hanson. But these Old-Worlders came a bit late to name the cities and towns. So they named what they built instead. And they built a lot of ski areas. Ten of Wisconsin's 34 ski areas carry names evocative of Europe's cold regions, Scandinavia and the Alps:I wonder what it must have been like, in 18-something-or-other, to leave a place where the Alps stood high on the horizon, where your family had lived in the same stone house for centuries, and sail for God knows how many weeks or months across an ocean, and slow roll overland by oxen cart or whatever they moved about in back then, and at the end of this great journey find yourself in… Wisconsin? They would have likely been unprepared for the landscape aesthetic. Tourism is a modern invention. “The elite of ancient Egypt spent their fortunes building pyramids and having their corpses mummified, but none of them thought of going shopping in Babylon or taking a skiing holiday in Phoenicia [partly in present-day Lebanon, which is home to as many as seven ski areas],” Yuval Noah Harari writes in Sapiens his 2015 “brief history of humankind.” Imagine old Friedrich, who had never left Bavaria, reconstituting his world in the hillocks and flats of the Midwest.Nothing against Wisconsin, but fast-forward 200 years, when the robots can give us a side-by-side of the upper Midwest and the European Alps, and it's pretty clear why one is a global tourist destination and the other is known mostly as a place that makes a lot of cheese. And well you can imagine why Friedrich might want to summon a little bit of the old country to the texture of his life in the form of a ski area name. That these two worlds - the glorious Alps and humble Wisconsin skiing - overlap, even in a handful of place names, suggests a yearning for a life abandoned, a natural act of pining by a species that was not built to move their life across timezones.This is not a perfect analysis. Most – perhaps none – of these ski areas was founded by actual immigrants, but by their descendants. The Germanic languages spoken by these immigrant waves did not survive assimilation. But these little cultural tokens did. The aura of ancestral place endured when even language fell away. These little ski areas honor that.And by injecting grandiosity into the everyday, they do something else. In coloring some of the world's most compact ski centers with the aura of some of its most iconic, their founders left us a message: these ski areas, humble as they are, matter. They fuse us to the past and they fuse us to the majesty of the up-high, prove to us that skiing is worth doing anywhere that it can be done, ensure that the ability to move like that and to feel the things that movement makes you feel are not exclusive realms fenced into the clouds, somewhere beyond means and imagination.Which brings us to Grand Geneva, a ski area name that evokes the great Swiss gateway city to the Alps. Too bad reality rarely matches up with the easiest narrative. The resort draws its name from the nearby town of Lake Geneva, which a 19th-century surveyor named not after the Swiss city, but after Geneva, New York, a city (that is apparently named after Geneva, Switzerland), on the shores of Seneca Lake, the largest of the state's 11 finger lakes. Regardless, the lofty name was the fifth choice for a ski area originally called “Indian Knob.” That lasted three years, until the ski area shuttered and re-opened as the venerable Playboy Ski Area in 1968. More regrettable names followed – Americana Resort from 1982 to '93, Hotdog Mountain from 1992 to '94 – before going with the most obvious and least-questionable name, though its official moniker, “The Mountaintop at Grand Geneva” is one of the more awkward names in American skiing.None of which explains the principal question of this sector: why I interviewed Mr. Brown. Well, I skied a bunch of Milwaukee bumps on my drive up to Bohemia from Chicago last year, this was one of them, and I thought it was a cute little place. I also wondered how, with its small-even-for-Wisconsin vertical drop and antique lift collection, the place had endured in a state littered with abandoned ski areas. Consider it another entry into my ongoing investigation into why the ski areas that you would not always expect to make it are often the ones that do.What we talked aboutFighting the backyard effect – “our customer base – they don't really know” that the ski areas are making snow; a Chicago-Milwaukee-Madison bullseye; competing against the Vail-owned mountain to the south and the high-speed-laced ski area to the north; a golf resort with a ski area tacked on; “you don't need a big hill to have a great park”; brutal Midwest winters and the escape of skiing; I attempt to talk about golf again and we're probably done with that for a while; Boyne Resorts as a “top golf destination”; why Grand Geneva moved its terrain park; whether the backside park could re-open; “we've got some major snowmaking in the works”; potential lift upgrades; no bars on the lifts; the ever-tradeoff between terrain parks and beginner terrain; the ski area's history as a Playboy Club and how the ski hill survived into the modern era; how the resort moves skiers to the hill with hundreds of rooms and none of them on the trails; thoughts on Indy Pass; and Lake Geneva lake life.What I got wrongWe recorded this conversation prior to Sunburst's joining Indy Pass, so I didn't mention the resort when discussing Wisconsin ski areas on the product.Podcast NotesOn the worst season in the history of the MidwestI just covered this in the article that accompanied the podcast on Treetops, Michigan, but I'll summarize it this way: the 2023-24 ski season almost broke the Midwest. Fortunately, last winter was better, and this year is off to a banging start.On steep terrain beneath lift AI just thought this was a really unexpected and cool angle for such a little hill. On the Playboy ClubFrom SKI magazine, December 1969:It is always interesting when giants merge. Last winter Playboy magazine (5.5 million readers) and the Playboy Club (19 swinging nightclubs from Hawaii to New York to Jamaica, with 100,000 card-carrying members) in effect joined the sport of skiing, which is also a large, but less formal, structure of 3.5 million lift-ticket-carrying members. The resulting conglomerate was the Lake Geneva Playboy Club-Hotel, Playboy's ski resort on the rolling plains of Wisconsin.The Playboy Club people must have borrowed the idea of their costumed Bunny Waitress from the snow bunny of skiing fame, and since Playboy and skiing both manifestly devote themselves to the pleasures of the body, some sort of merger was inevitable. Out of this union, obviously, issued the Ultimate Ski Bunny – one able to ski as well as sport the scanty Bunny costume to lustrous perfection.That's a bit different from how the resort positions its ski facilities today:Enjoy southern Wisconsin's gem - our skiing and snow resort in the countryside of Lake Geneva, with the best ski hills in Wisconsin. The Mountain Top at Grand Geneva Resort & Spa boasts 20 downhill ski runs and terrain designed for all ages, groups and abilities, making us one of the best ski resorts in Wisconsin. Just an hour from Milwaukee and Chicago, our ski resort in Lake Geneva is close enough to home for convenience, but far enough for you and your family to have an adventure. Our ultimate skier's getaway offers snowmaking abilities that allow our ski resort to stay open even when there is no snow falling.The Mountain Top offers ski and snow accommodations, such as trolley transportation available from guest rooms at Grand Geneva and Timber Ridge Lodge, three chairlifts, two carpet lifts, a six-acre terrain park, excellent group rates, food and drinks at Leinenkugel's Mountain Top Lodge and even night skiing. We have more than just skiing! Enjoy Lake Geneva sledding, snowshoeing and cross-country skiing too. Truly something for everyone at The Mountain Top ski resort in Lake Geneva. No ski equipment?

In 1937, a 23-year-old Flint woman stood between General Motors security, Flint police gunfire, and the workers fighting for their lives inside Fisher Body. Her name was Genora Johnson Dollinger — and she did more than rally the Women's Emergency Brigade. She dodged bullets for the UAW and helped spark a labor uprising that reshaped the American middle class.This episode begins with a cinematic reenactment of the Flint Sit-Down Strike and Genora's electrifying moment on the picket line. From her kitchen-table organizing to the chaos outside the plants, Genora's bravery becomes the doorway into a deeper story about labor, power, and the long shadow cast over America's auto industry.We would like to hear from you!

Justin brings on “Michigan Enjoyer” James Dixon to unpack Rep. Jim DeSana's newly filed impeachment articles against Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson, branding her “the most lawless SoS in Michigan history.” Dixon explains why the move—though unlikely to clear the Democrat‑run Senate—still forces public scrutiny, noting 1890s precedent when a Michigan SoS was booted for “gross neglect.” They dissect Benson's 2020 order to presume signature matches, her campaign launch inside a state office, and AG Dana Nessel's refusal to act, framing impeachment as the only accountability left. The pair game out political fallout for Benson's rumored gubernatorial bid, tease federal cash reportedly bankrolling Chinese pathogen smugglers, and close with throat‑soothing hot‑toddy banter amid Canadian wildfire smoke.Get the stories from today's show in THE STACK: https://justinbarclay.comKirk Elliott PHD - FREE consultation on wealth conservation - http://GoldWithJustin.comJoin Justin in the MAHA revolution - http://HealthWithJustin.comTry Cue Streaming for just $2 / day and help support the good guys https://justinbarclay.com/cueUp to 80% OFF!

Lane Valliere was in the hot seat as a guitarist/bassist in the '60s/early '70s Mid-Michigan Music scene, which included The Bossmen, ? and the Mysterians, The Frost, and Meatloaf. From stints with various bands, including performance on Timmothy Ward's infamous solo album Strange But True from 51 years ago, a freak car wash accident led Valliere down a different path. He took to WNEM TV5 as the Director in 1975 and lasted there until he retired in 2017. When he found he could find new ways of performing on his bass and guitars, Valliere got briefly back into it with Ward in the '90s, as well as on and off since including a brief reunion show with Ward in 2022 for the 50th Anniversary of Strange But True. Also he is a Michigan History book collector, as well as the keeper of the Tom Bert music photo archives (which he purchased)--Valliere also had a family member that worked with Faron Young and knew Patsy Cline and Elvis Presley--this story is amazing! He continues to write music to this day. Grab a drink and tune in for this one!

In this episode I explore various types of Bear encounters that were reported in Michigan newspapers covering stories from 1830 - 2008. Some are tragic, but several are quite comical and might even make you laugh. The bear does not always come out okay in the end, but in one incident the bear did outrun a pickle. Another unusual story involves a bear gettng caught on a cowcatcher and riding it for 10 miles to the next train station, and eventually engaging in a face off with a lawyer.

Ghosts of the past haunt the streets of Cereal City, and the Kellogg legacy lives on.

The streets of Cereal City were never more dangerous than in the early 1980s, when three young women were raped and murdered over the span of six months. Locals feared a satanic cult might be to blame, but authorities found themselves asking a different question- was the culprit a serial killer, or a killer who sold cereal?THEME SONGBad Ideas (distressed) by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3412-bad-ideas-distressed-License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ RESOURCESThe Murder of Maggie Hume: Cold Case in Battle Creek (Blaine Pardoe and Victoria Hester)A Tale of 2 Men and 1 Murder Confession (Sharon Cohen, Los Angeles Times)WikipediaFind A Gravenewspapers.comSupport the show (http://patreon.com/sodeadpodcast)

Throughout Dr. Kellogg's rise to fame and the success of his sanitarium, one man stood in the shadows doing much of the work but getting none of the credit- his younger brother Will. When Will took one of the doctor's discarded projects and turned it into a multi-million dollar empire, their bitter sibling rivalry turned deadly. The brothers spent decades battling over the family name and the throne to the cereal kingdom. In the end, it cost them both much more than money.

When Dr. Kellogg stole the Battle Creek Sanitarium out from under Mother White and the Seventh Day Adventist Church, the scorned prophet swore there would be hell to pay. Soon after, hell on earth visited Battle Creek in the form of a series of suspicious fires known as "The West End Fires." Buildings burned, fortunes were lost, and a war was waged as the body count piled up.

At the age of 24, Dr. Kellogg took over as director of the Battle Creek Sanitarium, also known as "The San." In his quest to provide his famous guests with top-notch care, Dr. Kellogg pushed dangerous treatments that put many of his patients in the ground, rather than on the road to wellness.THEME SONGBad Ideas (distressed) by Kevin MacLeodLink: https://incompetech.filmmusic.io/song/3412-bad-ideas-distressed-License: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/RESOURCESThe Kelloggs: The Battling Brothers of Kalamazoo (Howard Markel)Dr. John Kellogg Invented Cereal (Greg Daugherty, history.com)How Dr. Kellogg's World-Renowned Health Spa Made Him a Wellness Titan (Howard Markel, pbs.org)The Enigmatic Dr. Kellogg (Joe Schwarcz, PhD)WikipediaFind A GraveNewspapers.comSupport the show (http://patreon.com/sodeadpodcast)

John Harvey Kellogg was a walking contradiction. A religious fanatic and a man of science. A racist and a philanthropist. A man so obsessed with wellness, he paid no mind to how many died in his care, so long as it furthered his studies. A health fanatic with a creative mind, Dr. Kellogg invented machines designed for treatment that were better suited for a medieval torture chamber.
