The job market has changed — globally, permanently, and fast. Yet in the Caribbean, too many of us are still preparing our children (and ourselves) for a world that no longer exists. In this episode, Keron Rose breaks down the hard truths about outdated degrees, oversaturated career paths, and the urgent need to rethink how we educate and position ourselves for success in a global economy.
He shares the real-life turning point that started with a 60-second video — and led to brand deals, digital income, and international opportunities. From someone who built a thriving business without a degree, this is the uncensored deep dive beyond the newspaper article that sparked regional conversation.

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.
