The Atlantic Seaboard Wine Association (ASWA) was featured again on the Steve Garner/John Ash weekly radio talk show “The Good Food Hour” on 28 January 2012. This show has been on the air since 1987. Steve Garner has been a radio personality for 40 years 27 of them on the same station (KSRO). He developed three programs for the station: Grapevine featuring winemakers, growers and sommeliers, Garden Talk and the “Good Food Hour”. John Ash is an internationally recognized culinary expert and restauranteur and one time winner of the IACP for best cookbook of the year. John Ash was traveling at this time and Tom Simoneau, known as the WINEGUY, stood in for him. Tom is also a frequent wine judge in the state. The Good Food Hour is the longest running food and wine radio show in California. You can hear podcasts on their web site: www.ksro.com.
