The word “religion’ means something different to each one of us, and there are multiple ways of defining it. On today’s podcast, we have Sam Spector, a 31-year old rabbi of the Congregation Kol Ami, Utah's largest Jewish synagogue, who is here to enlighten us on his vision of faith and how it leads to creating a path of growth within ourselves. 

Highlights: 

  • Sam explains that faith  can help people find themselves because it can be perceived  as a channel of expression for our beliefs and hopes.
  • The importance of seeing beauty in other races, religions and ethnicities without forgetting that each one of us is unique and different.
  • Sam describes his  unique way of giving advice to  people who come to him asking for help: he tries not to be judgmental and always joins them in walking through their narratives and traditions in order to understand more about themselves.
  • Sam brings a new perspective in understanding that everyone can make mistakes, because it makes us humans, not less of a good person
  • Religion  not as the answer to everything, but as a tool to channel our hopes and work towards being a better person.

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.
