At Our Table with Jaime Harrison

At Our Table with Jaime Harrison is a new podcast inviting America to pull up a seat for honest, unfiltered conversations about our nation’s challenges and hopes. Hosted by former DNC Chair Jaime Harrison, the show brings together today’s most compelling voices for candid, “family table” discussions that cut through the noise. When Jaime got back from college, his grandfather told him, “I don’t want to hear all that fancy talk. Speak it plain.” At Our Table takes that advice to heart. At this table, everyone is welcome. But there’s no BS. Just real talk about how we move forward — together.

    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.
