What’s up y’all of little faith and welcome to the 6th episode of season 2 of TFP!

I’m your hostess, not your Moses, Mat Hayes, and if I’m still giving you episodes, it means that I am still looking for answers!

Y’all, today I have a gay icon on the show! In 1985, Steve Pieters was interviewed by Tammy Faye on her evangelical talk show seen around the world, and was recently portrayed in the academy award winning film, “The Eyes Of Tammy Faye,” starring Jessica Chastain and Andrew Garfield. 

Steve has been living with HIV/AIDS for over 30 years, literally surviving death. As a gay pastor living with the very disease that most evangelicals weaponized against our community, Steve has done so much to bring healing to the queer community at large. 

He truly is one of our generation’s gay pioneers in every sense of the word and honestly, I can’t believe his publicist agreed to set this interview up. I am so honored to introduce you all to this living legend.

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.
