Listen to Part One first!


This week, Matt and RoboBrian welcome bestselling author Scott Wells for part one of a spooky two-part conversation about his hit horror novel Marked by the Ouija — a story of friendship, restless spirits, and a Ouija board that refuses to stay gone.

Before the interview, professionally-voiced narration sets the stage: A group of friends finds a mysterious, never-used Ouija board. A seemingly harmless night turns terrifying. A spirit named Peter begs for help. The board is burned…… and returns the very next day — unscathed.

What follows is a haunting web of messages, unexplainable encounters, and a creeping question: Are they helping a spirit… or inviting something darker?

Matt and Scott discuss:• The real-life inspiration behind the book• Why adolescence + supernatural danger hits differently• The emotional side of coming-of-age horror• Ghost stories, belief systems, and the strange things that follow us

This episode blends story, mystery, emotion, and all things weird — just the way we like it.

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.
