  Susan Benjamin is a candy historian and owner of True Treats Candy, the nation’s only research-based historic candy company.

Her new book, Sweet as Sin: The Unwrapped Story of How Candy Became America's Favorite Pleasure, tells the story of candy's remarkable history -- most of it sweet, some of it bitter.

Joe talks to people on the radio for a living. In addition to countless impressive human "gets" - he has talked to a lot of Muppets. Joe grew up in Philadelphia, has been on the area airwaves for more than 25 years and currently lives in Washington County, NY with his wife, Kelly, and their dog, Brady. And yes, he reads every single book.
