G'day Folks,

Welcome to season 7 of the General Knowledge Podcast. Wow! What a ride so far folks.

2025 is here and already things are crazy. Right from the get go. Whilst it's hard not to jump on and do a show and chat about the weird events happening like drones hovering over parts of the USA, weird weather events like strange fogs around the world, Tesla Cyber Trucks exploding at Trump Tower, Terrorists driving trucks into crowds and of course California once again in flames.

Getting involved in chatting about these events too early without much information is not the best idea and leads to wild speculations. I do love to theorize and hypothesize but there's a risk of looking a bit silly without waiting a bit longer to see what else unfolds. We are in an age of information but sometimes its information overload and sometimes the right information takes time to come to light.

So for this episode I brought on one of my members. This was going to just be a member chat for the subscribers but I decided to release it for everyone as S7/E1. My guest was Hamish Chadwick and we had a very interest conversation. The main focus was the L.A fires and how it's very interesting that once again like so many cities before them it too is earmarked for a S.M.A.R.T City upgrade.

We also veer off on a few tangents and towards the end talked about the Cyber Truck explosion as well and what our thoughts are on that event.

Strap in for a wild 2025 folks.

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.
