Episode 202: "Donuts and Coffee"

Harbor Country / Kalamazoo

On this episode of Under The Radar Michigan, Tom and the crew try to take back Michigan’s own Harbor Country. It seems that people from everywhere but here come to this little known part of Michigan for great restaurants, historic inns, homemade ice cream … and believe it or not … to surf. Then, we head for Kalamazoo to watch a couple of Michigan entrepreneurs reach for their dreams. We’ll also learn how coffee is roasted with a local barista, and discover a classic place to spend the night, right downtown.

Third Coast Surf Shop
There's a commitment to surfing when you decide to surf on the great lakes. For one, the good surf never coincides with the good weather. So - - you're out on the water when the wind is howling, the temps are low and you're not spending time just swimming around in between waves. Storms yield the best surf conditions and that, my friends is dedication. Now, Paddleboarding? Nice Warm Day? No Waves? Count me in on that!
