INTRODUCTION:

In this episode of the Sex Drugs and Jesus Podcast, host De'Vannon Seráphino delves into the new Netflix documentary 'Apocalypse in the Tropics' by Petra Costa. This episode is the first of a two-part series critically examining the documentary's exploration of the influence of evangelical Christianity on far-right politics in Brazil, especially during Jair Bolsonaro's presidency. De'Vannon shares his perspective on the spiritual elements depicted in the film, discussing topics such as firearms, abortion, drugs, and political idolatry. He also critiques the portrayal of Christianity and the evangelical movement in Brazil, offering insights into the broader implications of mixing religion with politics. The episode encourages viewers to seek their own personal relationship with Jesus Christ, rather than relying heavily on religious institutions or leaders.

Ruthie's Table 4

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.
