What does home mean when it’s always just out of reach?
For Michelle, finding an apartment wasn’t just about having a roof over her head—it was about reclaiming a sense of security after years of uncertainty. With support from Anthos|Home, a Robin Hood-funded organization helping New Yorkers use housing vouchers to move quickly into affordable homes, Michelle finally found a place to settle and breathe.
In this episode, Michelle reflects on the emotional toll of searching for stability in one of the most expensive housing markets in the world, and what it means to finally hold the key to her own front door. Her story is a reminder that in New York City, the fight for housing is about more than rent—it’s about dignity, belonging, and the chance to build a future.

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.
