THE GUEST
Dr. Paul J. LeBlanc is a trailblazer in American higher education and the former president of Southern New Hampshire University (SNHU), where he led one of the most remarkable transformations in the sector—growing the institution from a struggling regional college with 2,800 students into one of the largest universities in the U.S., serving over 250,000 learners. A first-generation college student who grew up in poverty, Paul has been recognized by Fast Company as one of the most innovative people in education, named by Forbes as one of the most influential figures in the field, and awarded the prestigious TIAA Institute Theodore M. Hesburgh Award for Leadership Excellence. Since retiring from SNHU in 2023, he has co-founded Matter in Space, a new venture focused on reimagining human development for the age of artificial intelligence.

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.
