Welcome to the Damn Dude Podcast, hosted by California Cal!

This is Season 5, Episode 4!

We've got a very very very special guest in the house today! 

In the midst of all the chaos in this country and world, we need a breath of fresh air and some wholesomeness! So we brought on my kiddo, 8 year old Fordie!!

Ford has such a kind and pure heart and message, everybody needs to let this one in.

While the country either mourned or mocked Charlie Kirk's passing, we were at home having to coordinate to put the dog down, and that was very personal and deep to the family, but especially to Ford. Experiencing death is never fun, but an absolutely essential part of life.

I think we all grew as a family and a movement in the sense that we believe its not right to mock the dead or speak negatively on anybody, especially anybody who isn't there to defend themselves.

We get into what it's like in the world of an 8 year old growing up in San Diego, California, moving through life the way it is right now. 

If you are one of those who believe the world is doomed and there's no hope, then you NEED to listen to this one. This is our hope, this is our future, Goodness exists and is actively alive in many of our families and private conversations.

Fordie tells us what its like to have to put the family dog down, what 3rd grade life is like, how he thinks humans should be living life, and a very powerful message from his 8 year old self, to his adult self! You don't want to miss this one!

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.
