Episode Transcript
The West seems to fascinate the world in a way
no other American region can touch. Why can't you get
your John Wayne fixed on TV at any sleepless three am?
Why is a soap opera Western like Yellowstone so wildly successful?
How do shoe store sell five thousand dollars cowboy boots
that'll never see a stirrup? And why is the phrase
(00:22):
It's just like the Wild West cause all of us
to imagine full freedom of action, that no one's regulating.
The American West with Dan Floores is the latest show
from the Meat Eater podcast network, hosted by me writer
in historian Dan Floores and brought to you by Velvet
Buck Wine with a backbone. By focusing on deep time
(00:46):
and wild animals and the West's unique environments, this podcast
looks at a West available nowhere else. Each episode, I'll
be diving into some of the lesser known histories of
the West, such as North America during the Pleisscene epoch,
the distribution of the first paintings and images of the region,
and Thomas Jefferson's second Lewis and Clark Expedition. I'll then
(01:10):
be joined in conversation by guests such as Western historian
doctor Randall Williams and best selling author and Meat Eater
founder Steven Ranella.
Speaker 2 (01:20):
Oh, correct, my kids now, and then they'll say when
cave people were here? And I'll say, it seems like
the Ice Age people that were here didn't have a
real affinity for caves.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
So jointly, starting Tuesday, May sixth, for the American West
with Dan Flores on the Meat Eater podcast network, where
we'll delve into stories of the West, gain a deeper
appreciation of its history, and come to understand how it
helps inform the ways in which we experience the region today.

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.
