The Institute in Basic Life Principles (IBLP) is a conservative Christian organization founded in 1961 by Bill Gothard, promoting strict biblical living through homeschooling, rigid gender roles, and obedience to authority. Its teachings emphasize large families, courtship over dating, and avoiding mainstream culture.

The Duggar family, made famous by TLC’s 19 Kids and Counting, were prominent followers of IBLP, publicly embracing its values. Parents Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar raised their children under these teachings, homeschooling them and promoting modesty, purity, and traditional gender roles. However, both IBLP and the Duggars have faced public scrutiny—IBLP for abuse and misconduct allegations against Gothard, and the Duggars for scandals involving family members, which brought renewed attention to the group’s controversial practices.

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.
