    Northwood University's International Auto Show, plus Visit the Keweenaw, Jay's Sporting Goods and Oktoberfest (Sept. 12-13, 2026)
    2026/09/14
    We’ve got helpful news you can use this week on the show, plus a student run event in Midland, and fall fun in the Keweenaw.

    Segment 1: We start off with our good friend Mark Copeland from Jay’s Sporting Goods. With locations in Gaylord and Claire, Jay’s is the destination for all things outdoors. Mark joins us to talk a little bit about the new changes in Michigan hunting laws, assures Amy that she’ll still be able to enjoy the deer hunter’s weekend in November, and stresses how important it is to be prepared out in the woods. All important information.

    Segment 2: Next, we meet a new friend in Caiden Doan, who is this year’s PR rep for Northwood’s University International Auto Show. This free event will feature all sorts of fancy cars, info sessions, food, entertainment and more. It’s family friendly, and they are celebrating 63 years of this student led event in Midland the weekend of September 18 and 19.

    Segment 3: One of our favorite guests returns, Jesse Wiederhold from Visit Keweenaw. They are always up to something up there in the Key, and fall is a time when things really shine. Jesse has big, big plans for the first weekend in October, and shares their four-fold celebration with us. The Canal Colors Festival will feature events throughout the weekend, including a crazy color run, historical Brew Street downtown, and another attempt at a world record on Plaidurday. Yes, we are not making this up. Hear all about it on this weekend’s show.

    Segment 4: Finally, once again, our resident German beer expert Dave Ringler joins us to discuss Oktoberfest and why we celebrate it in September instead of October. He’ll also share what it’s like in Munich during these few crazy weeks, and where to enjoy Oktoberfests and good German beer around Michigan, including at his places, Cedar Springs Brewing and Kusterer Brauhaus.
