Welcome to the very first full episode of The OCD Confessional! 🎙
In this episode, hosts Liam Martin (former Boston news anchor) and Alicia Hill (Los Angeles actress & model) sit down to share and laugh about their personal experiences living with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). From intrusive thoughts to ridiculous rituals, they open up about what OCD has looked like in their lives, why they wanted to start this podcast, and how they found strength (and humor) in connecting with each other.
They also discuss some of the coping tools and strategies that have helped along the way — from therapy techniques like ERP to everyday tricks that make OCD a little easier to manage.

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.
