This week on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast, Geordie & Michelle look at two celebrities, Gawn Too Soon...
On March 31st 1993, on the set of The Crow, it was just another day at work for 28 year old actor Brandon Lee. Until it wasn’t. Just like the recent Rust controversy, there was an incident with a prop gun that went horribly wrong. So what happened that day? Who was Brandon Lee? How did he die? And what has been his legacy? Listen now!
Michelle follows with a look at the tragic life and death of musical icon, Karen Carpenter. With a voice as smooth as the satin she wore on stage, she was half of The Carpenters, the brother sister duo behind some of the greatest hits of the 70s. Yet unbeknownst to the world, Karen was struggling with a little-known disorder called anorexia nervosa. Listen now to hear about her life, career and heartbreaking death.
So pop on your headphones, grab a brown lemonade and join Geordie & Michelle for this week’s episode, plus chat about telly recs, shrinking and more, only on Eavesdroppin’ comedy podcast. And remember, wherever you are, whatever you do, just keep Eavesdroppin’!

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.
