In today’s episode, Matthew has a conversation with Rodrigo Garcia. If you are a regular listener, you’ll recognize that name since Rigo has been on this show multiple times over the years. He is a Nurse Anesthetist and the CEO of Parkdale Center for Professionals, a treatment center for substance use disorder that is geared for the healthcare provider and professional worker population. Matthew wanted to have a discussion with Rigo about substance use disorder in terms of recognizing it in ourselves and our coworkers, how to address this if we suspect it, how an intervention is done, and how treatment works. They discuss the questions that most people have in regards to this difficult subject. All of the resources discussed are in the show notes so please do not hesitate to reach out to Rigo or call a helpline if you or anyone you know is struggling.

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.
