Guest: David Benscoter, Retired Investigator for the FBI and United States Treasury David Benscoter retired from the FBI and turned his sleuthing skills to . . . apples. There used to be 17,000 varieties of apples in North America, but now you can find only about a dozen at your local grocer. David Benscoter combs abandoned orchards to find lost apple varieties and then works with Washington State University horticulturists to bring them back.
