"You can create chocolate-ly characters that are not from chocolate... but we've done a number of beers that are aged on cacao nibs."
--Garret Oliver of Brooklyn Brewery on Beer Sessions Radio
"[Chocolate] plays extremely well [with beer]. It's important to think about the texture...you're looking to compliment in flavor and compliment in texture...the warmth and creaminess of the beer should go with the warmth and creaminess of the chocolate"
"The challenge for me has been to find recipes that break away from 'port and chocolate'...now there are chocolates that have chili powder that compliment an IPA quite well."
--Clay Gordon of The Chocolate Life on Beer Sessions Radio

On this episode of Growing Good, Alessandra Iavarone is joined in the studio by Eva Radke of Film Biz Recycling. Film Biz Recycling is a non-profit organization that reuses and distributes film props and equipment, keeping tons of waste out of our landfill every year. Tune in to hear about how Eva started the company after working on film sets for years, Film Biz Recycling's involvement in charities, and starting a business while raising a child. Learn more about Eva's space, and the place she envisions for it in the community. This episode has been brought to you by Whole Foods.
"That's how it got started- community and communication. You're not alone even if in your house it's just you and your kid. There's a parallel working on a film because it's a microcosm... Why are we not talking to one another?"
"It's important that this industry waste is a platform for creativity and emerging artists." -- Eva Radke on Growing Good
