It starts with Mormons, moves to tar and feathers, and then the New England connection to loyalists. It does too make sense! Just listen to this, the 80th episode of the Connecticut Show.

Terrence travels to Boston to meet with Erica Stanley-Dottin and Matt Taylor of Team Tracksmith, where they discuss 4-hour marathons, copyrighting the red, white, and blue, and give a final answer to that always important question, who are the grey boys? Or is it, what are the grey boys? It will make sense when you listen.

Almost 80 episodes into the Connecticut Show, we realize that maybe we lean heavy on the sports. So, we do what any good hosts of a New England show would do with such a realization, we talk BYU Football, how NIL is impacting college sports, and when to invite your parents to a Juneteenth party.

    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.
