It's Alive with Brad Leone is back for episode 77 and this time Brad is learning all about oyster reefs. Join Brad in New York Harbor as he learns how oyster shells are put to work after restaurants dispose of them. New York Harbor used to have 220,000 acres of oyster reefs, but it only took 100 years to harvest them all once Europeans arrived. That's where Billion Oyster Project comes in -- recreating New York's lost oyster fields. And Brad's here to help.
Learn more about Billion Oyster Project here: www.billionoysterproject.org/
Additional footage provided by Nyier Abdou, Steven DeWitt and Grotto Network.

Join Bon Appétit test kitchen guy, Brad Leone, on a wild, roundabout and marginally scientific adventure exploring fermented foods and more. From cultured butter and kombucha, to kimchi and miso, to beer and tepache, learn how to make fermented and live foods yourself.

@@CasperInkyMagoo oh FFS, I'm a total supporter of the BLM movement and am NOT okay with the apparent pay discrepancies at Conde Naste. But (1) it's not like it was Brad making those decisions; it was obvious in the aftermath that none of the chefs knew about the issue. (2) as for the topic being directly related to good food, this kind of episode is. An episode about racial justice doesn't fit in the genre of a food show beyond clearly stating their support/platform at some point in general. The action they need is more equal pay but based on impact/experience/contribution, and to represent a heck of a lot more diversity. But that doesn't mean SILENCE all non-BIPOC people, FFS.
