Season 6 is here, and with it comes an exciting opportunity to dive deep into the past of one of America's most iconic landmarks. The White House may just seem like a building, but its rich and layered history reveals so much more—untold stories of decisions that shaped the world, whispered conversations, and personal moments of the nation's leaders.
Stewart McLaurin, White House Historical Association President, joins us for an incredible discussion on the history of The White House as we gear up to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of The United States of America.
Imagine the secrets held within its walls—the lives of those who constructed it, the leaders who governed from its rooms, and the historic choices that forever altered the course of the country. Too often, these pivotal moments go unnoticed, lost to time.
But there's a solution: Tune in to our newest discussion, led by our resident history expert, Jeananne Xenakis and Stewart McLaurin, White House Historical Association President. Together, they'll unpack "The History Of The White House," and explore the legacy of The White House.

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.
