Questions Every Michigander or Michiganian Has An Answer To
This morning we welcomed Big Joe Pesh to the morning show on Mix 957 with Wendy and Producer Steve. And part of that welcome, was Wendy coming up with some questions for everyone to answer about our great state of Michigan.
Just to give a little bit of background, Joe was born and raised in Michigan and worked in radio right here Grand Rapids for 7 years before moving to Texas and then coming back to West Michigan.
So, since Wendy, Joe, and Steve are all from Michigan, Wendy wanted to ask us some questions about our Michigan preferences. Here's the questions and our responses...
| Question | Big Joe | Wendy | Steve |

| Is it pop or soda? | Pop | Pop (but I've started calling it soda in recent years.) | Soda pop |
| Is it Michigander of Michiganian? | Michigander | Michigander | Michigander |
