What happens when you mix comedic genius with a dash of magic and a sprinkle of bodybuilding? You get an uproariously entertaining chat with Jesse James, our special guest known for his hilarious skits and engaging content. We finally caught up with Jesse in the vibrant city of Las Vegas, proving that our elusive meet-ups are as comical as his sketches. Jesse shares side-splitting tales of using magic as a social icebreaker, including a gym session with David Laid, whose magician skills left quite the impression. Once a single prankster, Jesse is now happily engaged, providing a humorous yet heartfelt perspective on personal evolution.
Ever wondered how following different creative paths can unlock unexpected opportunities? We recount our journeys through sports fields and YouTube channels, illustrating how intuition and spontaneity can lead to groundbreaking changes. It's all about embracing life’s chapters—be it exploring theater or venturing into business—and allowing your inner child to roam free and flourish. As we reflect on our adventures, we celebrate the dynamic nature of careers and creativity, and how these experiences inspire growth and joy.
Staying at the top of your game is no easy feat, especially in the whirlwind world of social media and sports. Jesse brings his insights on mental resilience, sharing his experiences with burnout and the importance of passion in overcoming obstacles. Just like in bodybuilding, where building systems and teams is crucial, persistence and determination apply to creative pursuits as well. We discuss the importance of nurturing personal relationships and maintaining balance, even when the going gets tough. This episode is a testament to the power of belief, the joys of self-discovery, and the unwavering spirit needed to realize one's dreams.

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.
