Could a boxing match between legends and influencers be more than just entertainment? Our latest installment of "Slap the Power" is your backstage pass to the much-hyped showdown between Mike Tyson and Jake Paul. We couldn't help but question the match’s authenticity, especially when compared to the eyebrow-raising outcome of the recent Serrano fight. Tune in as we ponder whether these events hold a mirror up to the issue of fairness in the ring, and set the stage for broader societal conversations.
Switching gears, we spotlight the harsh reality that 80% of climate change refugees are women, bringing to light the staggering inequities intensified by natural disasters. Join us as we travel to regions like Central East Africa, Bangladesh, and India, where these challenges are most acute, forcing young girls out of education and into vulnerable situations. We also touch on global political tensions, focusing on Hong Kong’s battle for democracy amidst Beijing’s tightening grip. Through these narratives, we aim to spark awareness and galvanize support for women and girls facing these adversities.

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.
