In this episode of Brilliant idiots , Charlamagne Tha God and Andrew Schulz bounce around a ton of wild, timely, and thought-provoking topics, everything from what it’s like for a comedian to get back on stage, to navigating friendships when politics get… messy. The crew breaks down the latest government shutdown drama, how it hits federal workers, and what it means for healthcare, SNAP benefits, and the everyday people caught in the middle. We also get into the big question: what responsibility do billionaires and corporations actually have in moments like this? We also divie straight into the chaos surrounding the newly released Epstein emails and the political firestorm they’ve kicked up. From online rumors influencing mainstream media to debates over immigration, drug policy, and even whether military crackdowns on cartels cross legal or moral lines, nothing is off limits. We also unpack the outrage over White House renovations, the housing affordability crisis, and the bigger question of what government should actually do for people.  Download Cash App Today: [https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/zt3hy9x9] #CashAppPod.

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.
