In Common

On this episode of In Common:

• A growing number of former Community of Jesus residents on Cape Cod are speaking out about the abuse they endured while living there. CAI's Gilda Geist investigated these claims and joins In Common to talk more about how she put her story together.
  
  
• A resident at a Malden apartment building became skeptical when the management took away their recycling bin, saying the waste facility will sort the recyclable. She was right to question them. In fact, no companies in the state separate recyclables from garbage. GBH's Craig LeMoult's has the story on why most apartment buildings in Boston don't offer recycling to their tenants. 
  
  
• In several communities in Mass., cow plop events draw hundreds of people to bet on where a cow will poop. In Common's Stina Chang has more from Southampton on this unique event.
  
  
• A new series from NEPM takes a look at Massachusetts' rich brewing history. Reporter Karen Brown takes us to a museum exhibit in historic Deerfield that covers centuries of brewing history in the state and how it has contributed to the Commonwealth's economy. Later, she visits White Lion brewery in Springfield to see what creative ways they are implementing to keep customers coming in. Then, In Common's Jeremy Siegel has more with Notch Brewing's Chris Lohring and Bill Shufelt, founder of Athletic Brewing, about how the industry is changing with the times, particularly in regards to low- or no-alcohol brews.
