Episode Transcript
Welcome to the mystical world of fairies and pixies. Have
you ever wondered where these enchanting creatures come from. Today
we'll dive into their origins, folklore, and the magic that
surrounds them. Fairies as we know them, have been a
part of human culture for centuries. Originating in European folklore,
(00:26):
fairies were often considered nature spirits, guardians of the forests,
rivers and mountains. They could be helpful, but just as
often mischievous. Pixies, on the other hand, are believed to
come from the folklore of southwestern England, particularly Devon and Cornwall.
(00:46):
Smaller than fairies and often depicted with wings, pixies are
known for their playful and sometimes trickster nature. They're the
ones you'd blame for leading travelers astray or hiding household items.
Throughout history, these magical beings have been depicted in various forms.
In medieval times, fairies were often seen as dangerous and capricious.
(01:14):
They could bless or curse at will. It wasn't until
the Victorian era that fairies took on a more benevolent
and whimsical persona. Think of the delicate, fluttering creatures and
Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. Pixies, with their roots deep
in Celtic mythology, have often been associated with ancient stone
(01:36):
circles and burial mounds. Some legends even suggest they are
the souls of unbaptized children forever roaming the earth. Their
stories are less about grandeur and more about the everyday
magic in the lives of common folk. But why are
(01:57):
we so fascinated by these beings. Perhaps it's because they
represent a connection to a world just beyond our reach,
a world where magic exists and anything is possible. So
next time you hear a rustle in the woods or
see a glimmer out of the corner of your eye,
(02:18):
remember the fairies and pixies. They remind us that there's
still a little magic left in the world waiting to
be discovered. Thanks for tuning in. Until next time, keep
your eyes open and your heart believing.

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.
