Speaker 1 (00:01):
Coming to Curiosity podcast. Hey, they're a podcast listener. Do
you consider yourself a history book? Do you fall down
Wikipedia rabbit holes about old popes and the Crusades? Or

like if it were actually historically accurate. If so, we

(00:25):
have a new podcast for you, half hour history Secrets
of the Medieval World, from the Fall of Rome to
the Black Plague. This show has it all and even
some things you may not know about, like a Renaissance
before the Renaissance. I'm Mike Coscarelli, and I'll be guiding
you through the Middle Ages with our lecturer, doctor Christopher

(00:47):
Bulido from Kane University in New Jersey. Over the course
of this podcast, doctor Bulido will be reframing what you
thought you knew about the Medieval times. If the Dark
Ages were so bad, how did we end up with
Gothic cathedrals, with universities, with Francis, with Bernard of Clairvaux.
How did we have this flowering of nights and chivalry?

(01:09):
How did that happen? If things were so bad? It's
not all jousting and tournaments and turkey legs, but nothing
beats the real stories behind popes, fighting with kings, the
Code of Chivalry, and the origins of King Arthur. So
join me for a little time travel and a whole
lot of history. Listen to half hour history Secrets of

Stuff You Should Know
Ruthie's Table 4

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.
