Whether you watch the football game on TV or in person, when you catch the Ohio State Buckeyes, you'll notice the mascot jumping around. Brutus Buckeye has become just as much a part of the culture of Ohio State athletics as the band has.
But did you know how Brutus came to be? Did you know the mascot was created out of papier-mache? This was back in 1965 and the co-creator of this mascot, was Sally Lanyon!
Sally shares the whole story with us today behind the history of Brutus Buckeye! What an incredible history lesson that shows a lot about the history of Ohio State, especially their Football program.
Today, Sally is the creator and writer for The Brutus Blog (www.thebrutusblog.com) and she also helped write "The Autobiography of Brutus Buckeye" which you can find here: https://thebrutusblog.com/book/
What an honor it is to hear from her today, and you don't even have to be an Ohio State fan to appreciate a story like this one. If you enjoy history, culture, and fun stories, then you need to tune into this one 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.
