In part two of Jessica’s story The Dating Detectives pick up right where last week’s dog-show meet-cute turned nightmare left off; at the moment she discovers her husband is tangled up in a $2 million lawsuit. As Jessica starts asking reasonable questions, Dylan’s mask slips for good. He retaliates by dumping her beloved dog’s ashes in the toilet, destroying her clothes, abandoning her at a dog event, and eventually escalating to revenge porn and online harassment that leaves her terrified in her own home and humiliated in her tight-knit dog world. Listen to part 2 to hear how Jessica lives through all of this, and get's justice.

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.
