Lindsay O' Neill-O' Keefe welcomes Pamela Gold, the founder of PRTL, who delves into her journey from a diverse professional background to becoming a pioneer in holistic optimization and biohacking. Gold, a Yale graduate, transitioned from the restaurant and fashion industries to personal training, eventually establishing New York City's first biohacking gym in 2018. Her approach, driven by the need for "minimum effective dose" modalities after becoming a mother, focuses on highly efficient workouts and recovery techniques.
The discussion highlights the physical stack of biohacking modalities, including ARX for strength, CAROL Bike for cardio, and various recovery tools like Nano V, Pulse PEMF, and Ballancer Pro, all quantified by Fit 3D Scans. The interview then explores Prtl's evolution into an online coaching program during the COVID-19 pandemic, emphasizing an integrated fitness model built on five pillars: Physical, Mental, Sleep, Nutrition, and Communal.
Gold's core philosophy centers on an "optimization matrix" for constant life course corrections, promoting expansion, intentionality, and resilience. Key tools and concepts include the "LAVA Skill" for managing discomfort, the importance of grace and faith for self-forgiveness and mitigating fear, and the belief that love is our greatest superpower.

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.
