This episode we are going to do something a little different. At the suggestion of multiple listeners, Emily and I have both watched Armageddon and Deepwater Horizon! Armageddon because: Drilling and Space and we thought it was going to be a fun movie. Spoiler Alert it opened up some existential questions about women's portrayal in the media and what that means for our daughter! Then we watched Deepwater Horizon because we wanted to know what Marky Mark knows about Oil Rigs! It turns out he was the smartest person on the boat and Emily has a theory about a different Iconic film that we will discuss at length.
We will talk about how closely the movie seems to match real life events and then get into the actual explosion and what they think caused the disaster. Next episode we should be back to our normally scheduled programming but Let us know what you think about this format we may be mixing in some of these looser episodes in the future. Hope you enjoy our Movie Night!

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.
