Ever wondered what really goes through a dancer's mind when you visit a gentleman's club? This eye-opening episode takes you behind the velvet curtain for some hard truths about proper strip club etiquette from someone who's lived it.
"I'm totally me this year. I don't really care whose feelings I hurt," our host declares before diving into the unspoken rules every club patron should know. Drawing from years of experience in the industry, she breaks down the fundamental do's and don'ts that many customers get wrong – from showing up with insufficient funds to violating personal boundaries without consent.
The conversation tackles uncomfortable truths about hygiene considerations ("Imagine if I do 40 dances and all 40 guys lick me"), respect for personal space ("Don't touch our hair"), and the importance of clear communication before spending money on private dances. With refreshing honesty, our host reminds listeners that dancers are human beings deserving of respect: "We're someone's mother, someone's sister, someone's daughter... we have to go home and feel okay when we go home."
Whether you're a club regular or someone who's never stepped foot in a gentleman's establishment, this straight-talking guide provides valuable perspective on respectful behavior in adult entertainment spaces. If you've ever been unsure about proper etiquette or wondered about the boundaries that should never be crossed, this episode offers the unfiltered guidance you need.

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.
