Jason Stewart is Founder of Epic Fighting (SoCal based MMA promotion), Stewart Estates (real estate group), and Epic Exoctics (exotic car rentals). In this conversation, we discuss how Jason stays calm under pressure, his approach to stress management, and how his unconventional upbringing shaped his mindset. We dive into his journey buying a house at 21, launching a successful MMA promotion in Southern California, and building a brand that spans real estate and exotic cars. Jason also breaks down his marketing philosophy, the importance of mentorship, and the hard truths about running multiple businesses versus going all-in on one. Whether you're an entrepreneur, athlete, or someone chasing high performance—this one’s for you.

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.
