Don Cherry's Coach's Corner segment on Hockey Night in Canada ended abruptly in 2019. Was it ever going to happen any other way? Controversial and entertaining, Cherry spoke his mind to the country for 37 years in the aforementioned first intermission segment. On Nov. 9, 2019, going over the top met with the times at hand and the contemporary media landscape.  Cherry was fired by Sportsnet in what is known as “Poppygate”. Is there more to this story? Is there more to Grapes than most care to know? His late daughter decided she wanted to confront this matter and also the descriptions she so often heard and read about her dad. The result is The Don Cherry Story, by his Daughter, Cindy Cherry. It's a book that exists in two parts, the first deals with the front facing persona of her father, and the second which focuses on his life, on and off the ice. This episode is a conversation with Cindy's brother and Don's son, Tim Cherry, about the book and about his family. *Cindy Cherry passed away in July 2024. **This was recorded one week prior to Cherry's sign off from "The Don Cherry's Grapevine Podcast" on Sunday, June 22.
