this one right here, right now.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
You never know, right, Muggle up and hold on tight.
We got it for you here. It is bro very letter.
Speaker 1 (00:24):
Thank you. Nephew's subject the security guard knows my husband
here Stephen Shirley. I work at a large company with
three offices in one city. I'm a consultant and I
work from home, but once a month I visit the
offices to check in with my team. One guy on
my team with flirting with me for months, and last
(00:45):
month he called me and told me to be sure
to stop by his office before I left. I went
to see him and he asked me to take a
walk with him. We walked to his car and he
had roses on the seat and lunch from Popeyes. I
sat in the car and ate cold chicken with him
because it was a nice gesture. He opened up about
the many dreams he's had of us, making love. Then
(01:07):
he said he never dreamed it would be in a car.
I was caught off guard by that statement, but it
made me want to have sex with him in a
car for the first time, just because I'd never done
anything spontaneous like that. I cheated on my hobby before,
and I regretted it. In that short period of time,
while I ate my cold chicken, I told myself that
(01:29):
I should try this guy out in the car and
then I'd never have to see him again. I asked
if he had some form of protection, and his face
lit up. We moved to the back seat and we
got down to it. His windows are tenanted, so it
was perfect. It was not until I climbed off the
back seat, looking a hot mess, that I saw the
(01:51):
security guard on the golf cart staring at me. I
realized who the security guard was. He's been to our
house before and he knows my husband. I told my
coworker to stay in the car, and he did. I
went over and spoke to the security guard and asked
if we are good, and he smiled and said it's cool.
(02:11):
I told my husband I saw the guy, and he
said he hasn't seen him in years. I breathed a
sigh of relief. Can I trust the security guard to
keep this between us? What a crazy question. I mean,
who knows if you can trust him or not? I mean,
I know your husband can't trust you, that is what
I do know. And it's interesting that you didn't think someone,
(02:34):
I mean anyone would see you guys in the back seat,
that you didn't care or think that somebody might see you.
I don't get that from you at all. He must
have been really close to the security guard because you
said the guy's windows were tenanted. So your question really
is do Steve and I think he'll tell your husband?
(02:57):
That really is your question. He might and he might not.
I mean, I'm gonna say no at this point because
he's a man, and men don't usually get that deep
with it like some women do, you know, and tell everything.
But what he might do the security guard is hold
it over your head for his benefit, like he might
try to sleep with you in the future or something
(03:17):
like that. So if you don't have a problem with
giving the security guard some if he asked, don't worry
about it. It wouldn't be the first time, right or
the second time that you cheated on your husband, and
yes I am judging, Yes I am Steve.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
Let me just start about saying in this letter right here,
I'm beyond overjoyed that you are not my wife. I mean,
you're just you easy, A box, a Popeye chicken.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
All it took in a wall and some roses on
the back seat.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
These roses was purchased either on the way in at
the dude on the corner or hard they.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
Was purchased at the grocery store.
Speaker 3 (04:12):
But either way, the guy planned it because he knew
you was coming in, because you told him, because in.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
The flirting.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
You told him, will I'll be there on a certain day.
Why you think that chicken and the roses was in
the car. This wasn't a person. This wasn't a perchance meeting, y'all.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
See she left that part out. He knew.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
See it ain't no o oh she coming today? No, no, no,
cause you don't know what day she coming. She go
once a month. They had talked and he knew she
was coming. That's why he said, make sure you stop
by my office walk with me.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
They go outside for a walk.
Speaker 3 (04:59):
He walked to the car, some roses on the back
seat and some chicken. I wish that's all it took.
I spent way too much money.
Speaker 2 (05:13):
Way too much money. I don't know what I'm doing.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
I have got to I wish I had met you
thirty years ago. Dog, I wish i'd met this man
thirty years ago so he could tell me what he
says to women to make them give it up for
a box of chicken.
Speaker 2 (05:35):
I just need to know what you say. Man, it's Popeyes,
that's strong.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
I didn't know. I've been all that old Becky. I've
been down the Olive Garden with him.
Speaker 2 (05:52):
I started.
Speaker 3 (05:53):
Man, The first big date I thought was strong was
a restaurant in Cleveland called the Brown Derby. Then when
I got on the road, boy, if I met one boy,
we was at Red Lost.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Oh.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
I knew all the dope to Red Lobster because you
get the biscuits, and then all Olive Garden because you
got that salad in that breath. But little did I
know all that's sitting down, ordering off of menu and
getting and getting having to tip somebody.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Popeye a box of old I'd be talk on Popeye
all right. All that thought, there's levels to this playoff thing.
Speaker 1 (06:37):

respiratory illnesses like flu Newmacaco, pneumonia, RSV, and COVID nineteen

Speaker 3 (08:13):
But he had lunch from Popeyes, so she said. They
got in the car and she decided to eat the
cold chicken because it was a nice gesture.
Speaker 2 (08:27):
Okay, all right, cool.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
He opened up about all the dreams he done had
about them making love.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
My man, he wasting no time.
Speaker 3 (08:37):
Then he said he never dreamed that it would be
in a car. Then here what she said. I was
caught off god by that statement. But it made me
want to have sex in the car.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
For the first time. That's a lie, all that, that's
just a lot.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
It wasn't the first.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
No, hell no, hell no no.
Speaker 3 (09:08):
After he said that statement, it made me want to
have sex in the car for the first time. What
how that's your first time thinking by having sex in
a car?
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Who ain't thought of that in high school? I ain't
thought of that in college? The girl die.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
Just because I've never done anything spontaneous like that.
Speaker 2 (09:29):

husband before. So now what makes you think that that
(09:55):
statement you said a second ago, you've never done anything
spontaneous like lady.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
You've been tricking so hard in that short period of time.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
While I ate my cold chicken, I told myself I
should try this guy out in the car and then
I never have to see him again.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
What how that's the plan.
Speaker 3 (10:21):
I'm gonna climb in this car with him and try
him out, because then I never have to see him again.
I asked if he had some form of protection. His
face lit up. We moved to the back seat and
we got to it. His wonders, this tenant, so it
was perfect, you knew that. It was not until I
climbed out the back seat, looking a hot mess, that
I saw the security guard on the golf car staring
(10:43):
at me. I realized who the security guard was. He's
been to our house before and he knows my husband.
I told my coworker to stay in the car, and
he did. I went over and spoke to the security guard. Now,

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.
