Speaker 2 (00:10):
Learn them so much. Okay, so I had to read
this a couple of times, so I'm gonna go slowly.
But this is very sweet. So this is from somebody
posted his name Melody and then insta single put it up.
So I'm giving credit where credit is due. So you
may have just read this, but if not, I just
found out that if a hermit crab finds a bigger shell,
(00:30):
it'll explore it and see if it can fit, and
if the shell's too big, it'll wait by the shell
for up to eight hours as other crabs come along
to try it out. As they realize it's too big
for them as well, they queue up next to the
shell and form a line from biggest crab to smallest,
and they all wait for the crab that's a perfect fit,
(00:51):
and then they all exchange shells in a sequence, so
everybody gets a new home. We could learn a lot
from that. Is that nice? Yes? So it's like, hey,
this doesn't work, so I won't keep it for myself.
It works better for you, but then yours will work
great for me, so I'll take that one, and so
on and so forth. Isn't that nice? Yes, made me
(01:14):
feel kind of warm and fuzzy inside, which is it
doesn't happen very often.

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.
