Today is a bonus episode featuring the new podcast from food writer/author Candice Herriott-Townsend and NC F&B Podcast co-host Max Trujillo.

It's called 'Something ELSE About Food'

In the inaugural episode, Candice contacted iconic chef, Sean Brock to discuss his decision to move from Charleston to Tennessee, his new restaurant, his sobriety, becoming a father and his motivation in the kitchen.

The conversation ignited a journey through the state of Tennessee that expands upon a 6 part series. We speak with industry leaders, such as Allan Benton of Benton's Country Ham, Roy Milner of Blackberry Farms Brewery, The Barefoot Farmer and others.

Today's show is first of the six episodes series. Something Else About Food is its own new podcast, so click the link to subscribe. The following episodes will drop once a week. And tell a friend to subscribe, so they too can listen to Something ELSE About Food…

Host: Candice Herriott-Townsend @CHSFoodWriter

Produced by: Max Trujillo @mxtrjll

You love Beer and we love you. Max went out of his way to physically drag Chris Powers (Owner and Muse Master of Trophy Brewing Co) & Adam Eckhardt (Owner and Creative Crusader of Crank Arm Brewing) into the studio to share the news about their brews.

This episode is frothing with information. We chat about what it's like to win an award from the Great American Beer Festival. How to scale & schedule your barrel system. Why these guys beers (and Pizza btw) are so damn tasty.

We also learn that when it comes to buds and brews in Raleigh, it's not competition & it's not cooperation, it's coopetition. Learn what a Rickshaw bar is and finally we serve up some breaking news that Ale's are out and Lagers are in!

Grab a cold one and listen up!

Maggie Kane has made a place at her table for everyone. Despite all the nay-sayers telling Maggie that it wasn't possible to run a "pay what you can" restaurant. Not only is it possible to run a pay what you can restaurant, but it's profitable for the community.

Listen in to find out what "Pay what you can" really means. Hear about how A Place At The Table Cafe has contributed thousands of meals to those struggling with homelessness. And, by the way this isn't just slop, this is high brow food that is either paid for or worked for! Most importantly, if you are similar to Maggie and feel a need to lift people up and give back to your community and simultaneously run a business, then pay attention to find out how you can do it in your town!
