Jesper (30s): Hello, I'm Jesper

Autumn (31s): And I'm Autumn.

Jesper (33s): This episode 141 of the am writing fantasy podcast. And are you ready for another top 10 episode today on him?

Autumn (43s): Well, Actually it's been a little hot and sweltering and humid. I mean, it feels like I just got dumped into Costa Rica without the beach. So I don't have a highly competitive edge, unless maybe it's a lay on the beach and drink a beer contests. So I'll do what I passed. I did not bring my game face to this one. I'm sure you did because you thrive off of competition, I think.

Jesper (1m 12s): Well, at least we are going to try to have a bit of fun today here and share our list of the five worst powers a character could have. And then as usual, we'll need to see if we can agree on who had the best worst list, Indiana and agreeing on who won is usually the hardest part of these episodes.

Autumn (1m 31s): Well know you always think you won, but I always know I did.

Jesper (1m 34s): See that's what I mean; we can't agree.

Autumn (1m 39s): We agree. We both feel that we can agree that each of us one.

Jesper (1m 43s): Yes, but, and then sometimes somebody on Patreon are the ones who do the tie-breaking.

Autumn (1m 49s): Yeah, that's exactly it. Sometimes they put on YouTube videos. So we, we do take votes. I don't think it's ever changed how we felt we did, but we try.

Jesper (2m 1s): Well, usually if they do conclude that they think I won, then I definitely agree with them. And then I think very wise people voting in that, those cases.

Autumn (2m 11s): Yeah. I would say, I think I've had more votes than you. So I think they are very wise.

Jesper (2m 17s): No, I don't think so. Is he already with disagreeing?

Autumn (2m 21s): I have more competition in me than I thought so we'll be good.

Jesper (2m 27s): Yeah. Apparently, so.

Autumn (2m 31s): So how are things over on your side of the planet?

Jesper (2m 35s): No, it's, it's it's good. We actually started, well, we talked about this a bit offline, but we did stop looking at a house because there's just not enough space in this apartment. I mean the location of this apartment, it's, it's like 200 meters from the beach wonderful location, but it's just, it's too small for the four of us. So we, yeah, we started looking at some new houses and we found one that is newly renovated. It was a completely overhauled about a year ago. So it, it looks really nice and we are looking at it last week and we felt like, ah, this is quite good.

Jesper (3m 22s): The price on the house is quite high. So we want that of course reduced. But just to be on the safe side, we, we hired a building inspector and we went out with him the other day to just go through the house and just check if there's nothing wrong with it. Some hidden stuff that you don't know about. Those kinds of interesting.

Autumn (3m 43s): Yeah. Some of my favorite parts of looking at houses.

Jesper (3m 47s): Yeah. But he found mold in the attic. Oh no. And he found the fact that the, I don't know what the correcting this term is, but basically not the roof, but like the inner inner structure of the roof.

Autumn (4m 7s): Like the trusses or just the plywood?

Jesper (4m 13s): The, the supporting structure. It's, it's a there's mold in it. And he even found water on some of the supporting beans. So it's, it's a matter of time before you have water pouring in from the roof. He said, I mean, the only thing t

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.
