The simple apple - it is in our lunches, on our teacher’s desk, and occasionally made into a delicious alcoholic drink called Cider. Did you know that the apple and the drink made from its fruit is hiding one of the greatest stories ever told? On today’s episode we tell the tale of how America was founded and built using Cider. The incredible origins of the apple, how cider pushed us westward and kept us together as a nation, and how it tore us apart. We also try to find the long lost apples the founding fathers grew hundreds of years ago. Join Jason Wise & author Ben Watson as we tell the story of Cider and the American Dream.
