In this compelling episode, we welcome Robbin, a remarkable woman whose story of resilience and transformation will leave you inspired. At just 15 years old, Robbin faced an unimaginable challenge: she contracted HIV, an event that would shape the course of her life in profound ways. But Robbin's tale is one of indomitable spirit and incredible strength. She takes us through her harrowing experience of surviving Hurricane Katrina, a catastrophe that tested her in ways she never expected.
Robbin's journey is also one of personal battles, as she opens up about her struggle with addiction and the years she spent entangled in the criminal justice system. Yet, amidst these trials, Robbin's story is not one of despair but of redemption and hope. She shares the pivotal moments that led her to sobriety and how she turned her life around against all odds.
But Robbin didn't stop there. Determined to make a difference, she founded her own nonprofit organization, channeling her experiences into helping others facing similar challenges. Robbin's story is not just a testament to her resilience; it's a powerful reminder of the capacity for change and the importance of giving back. Join us as Robbin shares her incredible journey, offering insights and inspiration to all who listen.

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.
