Speaker 3 (04:05):

eye like they do on film.
Speaker 5 (04:10):
It's so it's weird, right, so weird.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
A record number of air traffic controllers in the US
have taken unscheduled time off in recent days, triggering long
delays for travelers who could blame them. Yes, it's a
very important job, but it's a month without being paid

can manage traffic safely. The baby formula company by Heart

In thee god stop.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
It also the streaming premiere Freaky Friday's on Disney Plus
and playd eight on Amazon with Kevin James and Reacher's
Alan Richson.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
In Sports, I'm going to institute a brand new rule
on this program, okay, and I'm going to take it
directly from the new handbook at Target.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Target launches ten to four program requiring workers to smile.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Okay, and Greek customers don't they do that already?
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Target has implemented a new customer service initiative called the
ten to four program that mandates employees smile at shoppers.
It's just funny because when you walk into Target or
a Walmart or any store and the employee smiles at you,
you're like, oh, okay, and you think nothing of it.
When you see it in black and white, it mandates
they smile at you.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
I think that that's a pretty natural thing. Although the
other day I was at a store or not Target.
I actually haven't been to Target in a while. I
was at a store and there was a person stocking
shelves and I smiled at them and they did not
smile back at me, and I thought to myself, Wow,
that's poor customer service.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Under the policy, workers must smile, Yeah, make eye contact.
Way were Greek customers when the customer is within ten
feet of them? Oh was the person within? Were you
within ten sh Yeah, I was right there, so you
were inside. You're not respecting their boundaries.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
And I started with the smile too, so I led
with it because I was like, we're going to acknowledge
each other.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
And there was nothing doing.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
When shoppers come within four feet, employees must ask if
they need help or inquire about their day.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
I mean, I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
For example, you know, you and I go to Disneyland
a lot, and part of the fun of going to
Disneyland and Disney World is that you know that every
single person who has a Disney name tag is going
to be kind and helpful. There's no garbage on the ground,
everybody's in good spirits. Sure, maybe that's part of the rules,
but you know, you can ask anybody anything and they're
going to have the answer for you, and they're going
to be friendly. And that's kind of a nice thing
(07:35):
to know. I would like that in every store. What's
the big deal?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Target research indicates that consumer metrics improve and customers receive
greetings or acknowledgement. It's like I said, it's just funny
to see it in black and white. Yeah, it's in
the rule book.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
That's great. If I was the CEO of a big corporation,
that'd be my real book too.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
So from now on, Jody, Yeah, if anybody approaches you
within ten feet, I want you to awkwardly smile at
them and ask them how their day is going.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Mile pretty like this. Yeah, although you don't want it
to backfire. And I'm gonna call this company out on
the carpet right now because they're not advertisers on this program.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
See, by the way, future advertisers, if you're not advertising
on this program, we're just.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
I really like the It's a Canadian company. It's a
cosmetics like moisturizer brand called Lush and you'll see it
in mall.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
Sure that's the soap people, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
So cut, you know, soap shampoos whatever. You go into
the stores and everybody's up your butt going like trying
to help you, and anything you look at, they're.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
Like, that's my favorite. Oh do you want to see this?
Do you want to do that?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
And if you wave off one person you're like, no,
I'm good, I'm just looking around. Two seconds later someone
else is right there.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
Can I help you? You want to see this?
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (08:46):
You want to see this cool new jelly. It's probably
in their company mandate that they have to do this.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Of course it is, but it's too much. It's like,
I don't need all this help.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
Back above me. I just want to look at the
soap that looks like candy. Back off.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
I love a good sinky moisturizer, you know me. I
like to stink good, and I don't need me help
making that stink.

Speaker 2 (18:17):
I have two words for you today. Bender unsecured load.
You know, one time in New Jersey, my father was
behind a landscaping truck and a the car in front
of the landscaping truck stopped and a lawnmower came bouncing out.
Speaker 5 (18:36):
This is true.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
A lawnmower came bouncing out of the truck. Push a
ride mower came bouncing out of the truck and hit
my dad's car. And ever since that happened. When I
got my driver's license, they were like, never drive behind
an insecured load. Stay far back.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
It's like final destination. Yeah, like the log truck. Yeah yea.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
So yesterday I was on ninety nine south bound and
there was one of those like rent me junk Haller rentals,
and this dude had the pop top open and there
was stuff just flying up. I mean, you know, paper materials, styrophone, Hello, environment,
And it was just like nonsense. It was like somebody
(19:18):
paid him to spray ninety It was just like flying
all over the place, and I don't know how you
secure that other than having a tarp. But if you're
gonna drive a truck full of garbage, freaking figure it out.
Speaker 5 (19:29):
Freaking figure it out right.
Speaker 3 (19:31):
Okay, my daughter's on our way to school right now
with the radio on in the car.
Speaker 5 (19:35):
And you know that's gonna be har I'm McKenzie. That'll
be repeated, right, freaking figure it out, that's right. Your
pet peeve a Jodian Bender.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
My pet peeve for pet peeve Wednesday is people who
are completely unaware of themselves, like when they're driving their
car and they just point and go and have no
idea what's around them. Or those people who forget how
to walk in Costco because they need their little tiny
chip sample. Yeah, move, I need mangoes move.
Speaker 5 (20:02):
Yes, what about you?
Speaker 4 (20:03):
Hi, Jody Highbander, this is phyllis. I have a pet
peeve which is people who wait on the metered freeway
on ramps and it turns green for them to go,
and they don't go immediately, so it turns red and
they wait for the next green.
Speaker 6 (20:21):
Under my pet peeve is life. I got an email
that someone in my child's class. They didn't say which
child is someone in one of my children's class has life,
and my head has itched so freaking bad since I
got that email. I just wish that life did not exist.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
Yeah, we should talk more about lice. Can we talk
about lice now that we're a little removed from it?
Because you and Rachel.
Speaker 5 (20:50):
Owned a lice clinic we did in Kent. Yeah, and
when did you sell that? Like two years ago? Right?
Speaker 3 (20:55):
We opened it in twenty seventeen. We owned it for
about five years. We were looking for like a side hustle.
We were looking for a franchise thing, and we were
looking for something to be recession proof. Yes, it turned
out it wasn't COVID proof, right, And because obviously when
COVID happened and schools shut down and businesses shut down
(21:18):
and people weren't around other people, the business dried upright,
and then upset too. The lice were very upset. But yeah,
Rachel and I owned a lice removal clinic, So like
what was up with that? Of all the things, of
all the things that you know what the hardest part
of that gig was. I mean, once you got past
(21:39):
the lice, like once you got past the fact that
anybody you talked to about it, their head starts to edge.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
And yeah you can see, you know, and anybody who's
coming in there, their head is full of dirty buck.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
But the worst part about that gig, owning it, managing it, yeah,
was the employees because it was an on call business
and nobody understood what on call men it means.
Speaker 5 (22:00):
You need to be available. You need to be available.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
So if you know, if the window is you're going
to be there Tuesday, like you're not on site, but
you'll be called in if somebody has anybody, then we
would stack the appointments on. We were busy, Like the
place was busy and it was doing great and then
COVID hit and everything died.
Speaker 5 (22:16):
Did you used to have to do the life removal yourself.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
At some A lot of times I did.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
Yeah, So what did that entail? You have like certain
Yeah you have like that.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Yeah, you had like a whole uh process you had
to calmb it out. Yeah, you had a process of it,
and we had like a heating thing of it was
a patented heating thing. Whatever was. It was a terrible
company that we've wound up working for, like the parent company.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Did you ever meet a Laos that you became friends
with like and you were like, you know what, you
get to stay?
Speaker 5 (22:46):
No what look at you and you gave him.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
A little tank and put him over there, and Mackenzie
would play with them, and you were like, kill the
rest of them. But Jimmy is staying anything like that,
You're like a mascot. Text My god, my head is itchy. Right,
I'm just listening to this. Here's the worst part for
everyone to keep in mind. Yeah, okay, yeah, tell. We
would go out of our way if somebody came in
(23:12):
and said, you know, my kids got life and we
were treating so and so forth, we would find out
what school the kid went to, or we would find
out what like dance school or what like karate dojo
they went to whatever it is, and they're like, oh, yeah,
you know, but I think that's where they got it from.
And I think you know, can you sure? We would
call and say, Hi, one of your kids just came in.
(23:35):
FYI you want to tell everybody? When I tell you that,
we would always follow up with the customer who came
in and said, did the school, did the karate dojo?
Did the dance studio?
Speaker 5 (23:48):
Day?
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Nobody was ever told keep that in mind. They kept
all that under wraps. Every place that we would reach
out to and say, hey, f yi, one of your
students came in, or multiple students came in.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
Yeah, they don't want to be blamed.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
They were never told. They don't want to be never
sent notes out, they never send emails out.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Because one of the chances that a kid only goes
to one place and nowhere else, they don't want to
be blamed for it.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
Tax Bender owning a life clinic is literally the most
random thing I think I've ever heard on the show.
Speaker 5 (24:17):
So random, super random.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
And do you know what, After you and I started
working together, I was thinking I would open one too,
because there's not one in WeSC Aller White Center. But
then when you sold it, I was like, now I'm
going to open a Jersey Mike sub. Now I'm going
to open a Jersey Mike sub.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
It's so much easier.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
It's like, go ahead and fire me. I'm ready. I'm ready.

Speaker 3 (25:13):
You're making fun of the AI sounding stuff. It's not necessary.
Speaker 5 (25:19):

that's a good one. That's funny. I keep that version

Spanning the glube to find the news you didn't know
you needed to know Daily Bender Gazette. Now here's Bender.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Oh if you thought the licee conversation earlier gave you
the creepy carls.
Speaker 5 (26:04):
How about this?
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Researchers in.
Speaker 5 (26:08):
India Greece o oh, out of the country.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Researchers have found what might be the world's largest spider
web in an underwater cave on the Greece Albania border.
The web covers one thousand and seventy six feet along
the cave wall. That's amazing and according to the researchers,
(26:37):
it houses approximately one hundred and ten thousand spiders from
two different species.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
Did they build it together in like a community? That
is so interesting?
Speaker 3 (26:52):
The caves were first discovered or they discovered the web
in twenty twenty two. They say it's a unique case
of two species cohabiting within the same web structure in
this huge number. That's amazing, one hundred and ten thousand spiders.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
You have to admit, even if you hate spiders and
you're grossed out by them, you have to admit that
building webs is cool, Like that's hella cool. I'm very
annoyed by webs because they put them up right outside
my front door and I'm always walking through them every
morning at four in the morning. Super annoying, but it's
still cool because how do they do that? They're tiny?
How do they start a web?
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Well, how do you know they're tiny? Have you not
seen big as spiders?
Speaker 5 (27:38):
How do you start a web?
Speaker 3 (27:41):
Well, spider man does it from his wrist.
Speaker 5 (27:44):
Right, So is that the best you can inform me?
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Well, how else would spiders do it? Spider Man does it.
That's the way spider's do it.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
But other than like you know, you start it coming
out of your butt, they spray the web. No, it
comes out of their butt, and they like crawl down
it to the next thing. But what if you're going
straight across the way my spiders do. They don't go down,
they go straight across.
Speaker 5 (28:06):
How the heck are they doing it?
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Where's my Encyclopedia Britannica. I'm going to research today and
I'm going to find out for tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
A story reads that the cave contains five hundred and
twelve other species from twenty families, providing an abundant resource
for the spiders.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
That's awesome, crazy insect cave. I mean, I definitely don't
want to hang out there, but that is cool.

It also the streaming premiere Freaky Friday's on Disney Plus
and playd eight on Amazon with Kevin James and Reacher's
Alan Richson.
Speaker 3 (05:43):
In Sports, I'm going to institute a brand new rule
on this program, okay, and I'm going to take it
directly from the new handbook at Target.
Speaker 5 (05:52):
Okay.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Target launches ten to four program requiring workers to smile.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
Okay, and Greek customers don't they do that already?
Speaker 3 (06:07):
Target has implemented a new customer service initiative called the
ten to four program that mandates employees smile at shoppers.
It's just funny because when you walk into Target or
a Walmart or any store and the employee smiles at you,
you're like, oh, okay, and you think nothing of it.
When you see it in black and white, it mandates
they smile at you.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
I think that that's a pretty natural thing. Although the
other day I was at a store or not Target.
I actually haven't been to Target in a while. I
was at a store and there was a person stocking
shelves and I smiled at them and they did not
smile back at me, and I thought to myself, Wow,
that's poor customer service.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Under the policy, workers must smile, Yeah, make eye contact.
Way were Greek customers when the customer is within ten
feet of them? Oh was the person within? Were you
within ten sh Yeah, I was right there, so you
were inside. You're not respecting their boundaries.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
And I started with the smile too, so I led
with it because I was like, we're going to acknowledge
each other.
Speaker 5 (07:03):
And there was nothing doing.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
When shoppers come within four feet, employees must ask if
they need help or inquire about their day.
Speaker 5 (07:12):
I mean, I don't think there's anything wrong with that.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
For example, you know, you and I go to Disneyland
a lot, and part of the fun of going to
Disneyland and Disney World is that you know that every
single person who has a Disney name tag is going
to be kind and helpful. There's no garbage on the ground,
everybody's in good spirits. Sure, maybe that's part of the rules,
but you know, you can ask anybody anything and they're
going to have the answer for you, and they're going
to be friendly. And that's kind of a nice thing
(07:35):
to know. I would like that in every store. What's
the big deal?
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Target research indicates that consumer metrics improve and customers receive
greetings or acknowledgement. It's like I said, it's just funny
to see it in black and white. Yeah, it's in
the rule book.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
That's great. If I was the CEO of a big corporation,
that'd be my real book too.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
So from now on, Jody, Yeah, if anybody approaches you
within ten feet, I want you to awkwardly smile at
them and ask them how their day is going.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Mile pretty like this. Yeah, although you don't want it
to backfire. And I'm gonna call this company out on
the carpet right now because they're not advertisers on this program.
Speaker 3 (08:09):
See, by the way, future advertisers, if you're not advertising
on this program, we're just.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
I really like the It's a Canadian company. It's a
cosmetics like moisturizer brand called Lush and you'll see it
in mall.
Speaker 5 (08:23):
Sure that's the soap people, Yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:26):
So cut, you know, soap shampoos whatever. You go into
the stores and everybody's up your butt going like trying
to help you, and anything you look at, they're.
Speaker 5 (08:36):
Like, that's my favorite. Oh do you want to see this?
Do you want to do that?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
And if you wave off one person you're like, no,
I'm good, I'm just looking around. Two seconds later someone
else is right there.
Speaker 5 (08:45):
Can I help you? You want to see this?
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (08:46):
You want to see this cool new jelly. It's probably
in their company mandate that they have to do this.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Of course it is, but it's too much. It's like,
I don't need all this help.
Speaker 5 (08:54):
Back above me. I just want to look at the
soap that looks like candy. Back off.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
I love a good sinky moisturizer, you know me. I
like to stink good, and I don't need me help
making that stink.

about five years. We were looking for like a side hustle.
We were looking for a franchise thing, and we were
looking for something to be recession proof. Yes, it turned
out it wasn't COVID proof, right, And because obviously when
COVID happened and schools shut down and businesses shut down
(21:18):
and people weren't around other people, the business dried upright,
and then upset too. The lice were very upset. But yeah,
Rachel and I owned a lice removal clinic, So like

all the things that you know what the hardest part
of that gig was. I mean, once you got past
(21:39):
the lice, like once you got past the fact that
anybody you talked to about it, their head starts to edge.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
And yeah you can see, you know, and anybody who's
coming in there, their head is full of dirty buck.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
But the worst part about that gig, owning it, managing it, yeah,
was the employees because it was an on call business
and nobody understood what on call men it means.
Speaker 5 (22:00):
You need to be available. You need to be available.
Speaker 3 (22:02):
So if you know, if the window is you're going
to be there Tuesday, like you're not on site, but
you'll be called in if somebody has anybody, then we
would stack the appointments on. We were busy, Like the
place was busy and it was doing great and then
COVID hit and everything died.
Speaker 5 (22:16):
Did you used to have to do the life removal yourself.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
At some A lot of times I did.
Speaker 5 (22:21):
Yeah, So what did that entail? You have like certain
Yeah you have like that.
Speaker 3 (22:24):
Yeah, you had like a whole uh process you had
to calmb it out. Yeah, you had a process of it,
and we had like a heating thing of it was
a patented heating thing. Whatever was. It was a terrible
company that we've wound up working for, like the parent company.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
Did you ever meet a Laos that you became friends
with like and you were like, you know what, you
get to stay?
Speaker 5 (22:46):
No what look at you and you gave him.
Speaker 3 (22:48):
A little tank and put him over there, and Mackenzie
would play with them, and you were like, kill the
rest of them. But Jimmy is staying anything like that,
You're like a mascot. Text My god, my head is itchy. Right,
I'm just listening to this. Here's the worst part for
everyone to keep in mind. Yeah, okay, yeah, tell. We
would go out of our way if somebody came in
(23:12):
and said, you know, my kids got life and we
were treating so and so forth, we would find out
what school the kid went to, or we would find
out what like dance school or what like karate dojo
they went to whatever it is, and they're like, oh, yeah,
you know, but I think that's where they got it from.
And I think you know, can you sure? We would
call and say, Hi, one of your kids just came in.
(23:35):
FYI you want to tell everybody? When I tell you that,
we would always follow up with the customer who came
in and said, did the school, did the karate dojo?
Did the dance studio?
Speaker 5 (23:48):
Day?
Speaker 3 (23:48):
Nobody was ever told keep that in mind. They kept
all that under wraps. Every place that we would reach
out to and say, hey, f yi, one of your
students came in, or multiple students came in.
Speaker 5 (24:02):
Yeah, they don't want to be blamed.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
They were never told. They don't want to be never
sent notes out, they never send emails out.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Because one of the chances that a kid only goes
to one place and nowhere else, they don't want to
be blamed for it.
Speaker 3 (24:13):
Tax Bender owning a life clinic is literally the most
random thing I think I've ever heard on the show.
Speaker 5 (24:17):
So random, super random.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
And do you know what, After you and I started
working together, I was thinking I would open one too,
because there's not one in WeSC Aller White Center. But
then when you sold it, I was like, now I'm
going to open a Jersey Mike sub. Now I'm going
to open a Jersey Mike sub.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
It's so much easier.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
It's like, go ahead and fire me. I'm ready. I'm ready.
Time flies. Next, it's Bender.
Speaker 7 (24:43):
I just good morning, Jody and Bender. You really are
the two very best DJs anywhere in the entire country.

joined me in my house, having a cup of coffee
and laughing, just having the time of our lives every
single day. Thank you so much for me, and you
don't you dare change.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
You are the very best, very nice.
Speaker 6 (25:02):
Thank you.
Speaker 7 (25:03):
If you'd like to keep this version of the message,
that'll be twenty nine ninety nine. If you'd like to
have a new version, please press one.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
You're making fun of the AI sounding stuff. It's not necessary.
Speaker 5 (25:19):
I didn't keep that one anyway, I'll keep it. Yeah,
that's a good one. That's funny. I keep that version
of the message.
Speaker 3 (25:24):
We get a lot of very nice messages left via
the talkback feature on the iHeartRadio app, and when we
run them, I just all of the wonder if you
guys are sitting there listening, going.
Speaker 2 (25:35):
That's AI, right, right, Or like if I call my
friends and I'm like, hey, call the radio station or
use the talkback feature and say that the show is
great and you love listening to it.
Speaker 3 (25:45):
And we'll put it on the air. Yeah, like go really, Yeah,
I'll buy you a lunch.
Speaker 5 (25:49):
Spanning the glube to find the news you didn't know
you needed to know Daily Bender Gazette. Now here's Bender.
Speaker 3 (25:58):
Oh if you thought the licee conversation earlier gave you
the creepy carls.
Speaker 5 (26:04):
How about this?
Speaker 3 (26:05):
Researchers in.
Speaker 5 (26:08):
India Greece o oh, out of the country.
Speaker 3 (26:13):
Researchers have found what might be the world's largest spider
web in an underwater cave on the Greece Albania border.
The web covers one thousand and seventy six feet along
the cave wall. That's amazing and according to the researchers,
(26:37):
it houses approximately one hundred and ten thousand spiders from
two different species.
Speaker 5 (26:46):
Did they build it together in like a community? That
is so interesting?
Speaker 3 (26:52):
The caves were first discovered or they discovered the web
in twenty twenty two. They say it's a unique case
of two species cohabiting within the same web structure in
this huge number. That's amazing, one hundred and ten thousand spiders.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
You have to admit, even if you hate spiders and
you're grossed out by them, you have to admit that
building webs is cool, Like that's hella cool. I'm very
annoyed by webs because they put them up right outside
my front door and I'm always walking through them every
morning at four in the morning. Super annoying, but it's
still cool because how do they do that? They're tiny?
How do they start a web?
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Well, how do you know they're tiny? Have you not
seen big as spiders?
Speaker 5 (27:38):
How do you start a web?
Speaker 3 (27:41):
Well, spider man does it from his wrist.
Speaker 5 (27:44):
Right, So is that the best you can inform me?
Speaker 3 (27:47):
Well, how else would spiders do it? Spider Man does it.
That's the way spider's do it.
Speaker 2 (27:51):
But other than like you know, you start it coming
out of your butt, they spray the web. No, it
comes out of their butt, and they like crawl down
it to the next thing. But what if you're going
straight across the way my spiders do. They don't go down,
they go straight across.
Speaker 5 (28:06):
How the heck are they doing it?
Speaker 2 (28:10):
Where's my Encyclopedia Britannica. I'm going to research today and
I'm going to find out for tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (28:16):
A story reads that the cave contains five hundred and
twelve other species from twenty families, providing an abundant resource
for the spiders.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
That's awesome, crazy insect cave. I mean, I definitely don't
want to hang out there, but that is cool.

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.
