Close to the Chest with Kristin and Christine

Close to the Chest with Kristin and Christine

The podcast, first season, is in eight parts hosted by two women on a mission to find out how to financially, legally, physically and emotionally overcome Breast Implant Illness (B.I.I.). The hosts are close friends, Kristin Nobles and Christine Torres, who joined together in their efforts to learn the facts key to navigating the disease from diagnosis and treatment to detox. The show provides an inside look with doctors, lawyers, patients and advocates offering their expert tips that are key to saving valuable time, money and ultimately lives. Each episode is divided into segments highlighting the treatment process and featuring the latest updates and news regarding B.I.I. symptoms, health issues, and the breast implant recalls. The hope is that no matter what point you are in the process you can listen and learn, and also connect with the associated resources.

    Ruthie's Table 4

    For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
