Speaker 1 (00:00):
Gaddie a Cheater, one fake bookuet of Roses at a time.

Speaker 2 (00:03):
Four of the Roses stars right now on kt WB.
What would you do if you were dating somebody but
you never did anything with them? I mean, I don't
even know what you do if you're dating somebody and
then like you never go anywhere.

Speaker 1 (00:20):
I mean, I like some independence, but I still want
to hang out with them every once in a while,
you know.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Well, yeah, well we're talking to Sophia, who is telling
me about is your boyfriend Jared? Is that his name?

Speaker 3 (00:31):
Yeah, Jared?

Speaker 2 (00:31):
Okay, So tell me a little bit about why you're
on War of the Roses and what makes you think
that he might be doing things just not with you.
What's going on?

Speaker 3 (00:41):
So he does a lot of stuff and he says
he's doing it by himself. Like he will go out
to eat, like he went to Redstone the other night
and he was like, oh, I just sat at the
bar by myself for a few hours. And he'll go
to concerts or like live music or the movies, and
he always says that he's going alone, Like he doesn't

(01:04):
invite me. He doesn't say he went with a friend.
And so now I'm starting to get suspicious, like are
these dates that he's going on? And he just doesn't
want to say that? Is he cheating?

Speaker 2 (01:15):
And I don't know what's going Juan war the Roses
first three three decades now, wow, unaccounted for time is
always like suspicious?

Speaker 4 (01:26):
What is it unaccounted for? If he's saying, this is
where I'm going.

Speaker 5 (01:29):
That's what I was gonna say. He tells you where
he's going.

Speaker 1 (01:32):
You said, he said Redstone the other day, So he
actually tells you, like if he's out at this bar,
or if he's out at this show or something.

Speaker 5 (01:39):
Have you ever tried showing up?

Speaker 4 (01:42):
No?

Speaker 3 (01:42):
But sometimes he does share his location with me, so
I know he's telling the truth.

Speaker 5 (01:47):
About where he's going.

Speaker 3 (01:48):
Okay, okay, well that's this is that he's there alone.

Speaker 2 (01:52):
Why doesn't he take you along? Sophia? You sound charming
and delightful. You must have something in common. Why doesn't
he invite you?

Speaker 3 (02:00):
Thank you? I you know, I asked him and he
just said he thought that I wouldn't want to go
because like, you're an introvert. I know you like to
just stay home. I don't want to bother you.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
And what do you say? I mean, I mean, do
you respond with like, yo, I don't want to go,
or I'm gonna guess you say, well, I want to
go sometimes.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
Roll because I do said I want to go sometimes,
and I get I guess he is maybe right then
some of the you know, music and stuff maybe isn't
my thing, and I do. I work a lot, and
so I do like to stay home. But I still
would like him to ask, and I still would like
to spend more time with him.

Speaker 4 (02:39):
Yeah, because what if he is doing something with shady
and he just knows, well, she's not going to go,
so I can do shady stuff even though she knows
where I am.

Speaker 6 (02:46):
I'd be funny if one day you're like, actually, I
do want to go to Redstone with you and he's like, uh.

Speaker 5 (02:51):
I just I mean, never mind.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
So does he tell you these like I'm going out
tonight to Redstone or does he say the next morning like, well,
where were you? And then he's like, oh, I was
at the Fine Line seeing the I don't know when
act last night.

Speaker 5 (03:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (03:06):
I feel like it's usually at night. I'll be like, oh,
what are you doing and he'll say like, oh, I'm
I'm out at that Stone I'm out at I just
am leaving the movies. There's something that you know, if
he has his location on, he knows I can see
and know he's tying of truth.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
Okay, at least with like concerts though, like those, Yeah,
it's a good thing that you have the location on,
But it's not like he's going to say like, oh,
I I wasn't at this concert because concert there's so
many people there, Like you could get away with doing
anything at this concert for sure.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
And I also feel like him giving the location could
be like a covering his tracks kind of thing, like, oh,
she's going to trust me if I give her my location,
but she doesn't know who else is going to be there.

Speaker 2 (03:49):
As a very experienced liar, the more details I can
give about my lie, the more authentic it seems. That
so you think that it's possible that he's seeing somebody else.
We can get to the bottom of this. We can
make a phone call to him and do our usual
ploy and say, hey, you take this survey for your
phone company. You win some roses. Who do you want

(04:11):
to send the roses to? Now? Your name is Sophia.
Remember that Sophia the matter is the name that matters.
That's the one we want to hear. You. Hang on, Sophia.
We'll make a phone call to this guy coming up
in a second.

Speaker 4 (04:22):
Okay, okay, none of everyone deserves closure, but we do.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
It's signer Part two of War of the Roses on
Katie WB.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
So basically she's wondering what's going on. It's like, Okay,
where'd you? Where were you last night? I went over
to Redstone, I had dinner at the bar by myself alone. Yeah,
I mean, not tot too unusual. Well where'd you go
last What are you doing tonight? I'm gonna go see
a movie by myself? Okay? So now she's going all right.
It's one thing to kind of be a loner, but

(04:56):
to never invite her along. So she's like, now the
wheels are turning. He's with somebody else.

Speaker 5 (05:02):
Yeah, he must be, because why isn't the inviting her?

Speaker 2 (05:04):
Which is a very good point. Right, all right, let's
find out who he'll send the roses to if we
offer him free roses on War of the Roses on
Katie WB. Making the phone call.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
Okay, Jared, I appreciate your time today, So I do
have a dozen red roses to send out to whoever
you'd like, whether it's a partner or a friend, maybe
your mom. But I'll need to know the name of
that person. So if you could just tell me who
you want to send those two.

Speaker 7 (05:37):
Sure you can send it to Sophia.

Speaker 5 (05:42):
Who's Sophia.

Speaker 7 (05:44):
She's this girl I've been seeing.

Speaker 5 (05:46):
Okay, so your girlfriend?

Speaker 7 (05:50):
Sure? Yeah, I guess so.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
That doesn't if I was seeing someone, i'd want more
of a yeah, yeah, that's my girlfriend.

Speaker 7 (06:01):
Do you like surprises, Jared, I guess it depends on
the surprise.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
Well, I have a little bit of surprise for you,
and it's not a terrible thing. The reason why all
of a sudden there's a guy on the phone is
because this was all a setup to see if you
would send roses to Sophia, which you did. And my
name is Dave and we're on the radio on Katie
WB oh yeah and so and so. The person that

(06:31):
put us up to this to see if they wanted
to test you is Sophia, who's listening right now. Say Hi, Sophia, Hi,
I am here.

Speaker 7 (06:41):
Oh yeah, what's up.

Speaker 4 (06:45):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 3 (06:45):
You hear so much stuff for yourself that I was
kind of trying to think that you're lying, that you're
split some it else.

Speaker 7 (06:54):
You thought I was seeing somebody else.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
Well, I don't want to like explain, but but you know,
she basically said, you go to all these things by yourself,
Like you go to Redstone, you go to movies, you
go to shows whatever, by yourself. And she's like, well,
why do you Why do you go everywhere by yourself.

Speaker 3 (07:15):
And you don't invite me?

Speaker 7 (07:18):
Well, I invite you sometimes.

Speaker 3 (07:22):
But most of the time you don't. I feel like, well,
I don't know.

Speaker 7 (07:27):
I just I like, I don't know, being by myself.
That's always just kind of been a lone wolf.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
A lone wolf, okay, I mean is there anything wrong
with that? Well, nothing wrong with that.

Speaker 5 (07:39):
I want to know.

Speaker 4 (07:40):
When he chose her to send the flowers to her,
he was just kind of like, yeah, I guess she's
kind of like my girlfriend.

Speaker 5 (07:45):
Are they not exclusive or you guys?

Speaker 4 (07:47):
Did you guys have the talk yet?

Speaker 3 (07:50):
You know, I guess.

Speaker 5 (07:54):
I kind of get that maybe they should.

Speaker 7 (07:57):
I like you, Sophia, but if you're.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
A lone wolf, then why have a girlfriend.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
That's what I was gonna ask you. You know, why
do you do you do you even want a girlfriend
who seem like you'd rather just be alone.

Speaker 7 (08:13):
Yeah, of course. I mean Sophia is great, and I
like being with her some of the time.

Speaker 2 (08:20):
And I understand this guy. I know, and I totally
get this guy. He wants he loves his alone time.
He's kind of what do they call it, a not
a rec loose, A lone wolf, a hermit alone wolf.
He's a lone wolf. I kind of like being a
lone wolf sometimes. I mean to go to Colorado by myself. Yeah,
and I can last three or four or five days
out there without Susan around, and it's just fine. But

(08:42):
you've been married to Susan.

Speaker 6 (08:43):
This is a new relationship, so it should be like
fresh and you should want to do things with your partner.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
I'm actually on Dave's side, which is not normal for me.
I am really about spending time by myself, even if
I'm in a new relationship.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
To eat wherever you want, watch whatever you want, go
to bed when you want, get his because you want to.

Speaker 4 (09:01):
So you're saying Sophia should just go out and live
her own life too, and then they both just that's
what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (09:07):
I'm That's what I'm saying that there's ships in the night.
That's the point we're advocating for.

Speaker 2 (09:12):
Sophia wants more time.

Speaker 5 (09:13):
Together, right exactly. I think that's a validation.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
Will this relationship last, Sophia, you're up first? I don't know.

Speaker 4 (09:21):
I guess what is you know?

Speaker 3 (09:24):
Going? Okay? How it is? If you're as long as
it's not that you're trying to meet someone else or
that you're going on dates and lying about it, I
understand why I just spend time alone.

Speaker 7 (09:37):
But I would like.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
To spend more time with you and get to know
you better.

Speaker 7 (09:45):
I mean, yeah, that sounds great. You're You're welcome to
come with me to movies sometimes, you know.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
Sometimes.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
Get like how many days? How many more days a week?
Are you going to hang out?

Speaker 2 (09:58):
Jared?

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Are you willing to give her one more day to
hang out a week at least one?

Speaker 7 (10:04):
Yeah? Sure? Why not?

Speaker 6 (10:05):
Just don't so confident, my God, in any of your answers.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
I think that there are couples like you know that
that are fine spending time apart, and then there are
couples that are like I got to be together all
the time. I think that like Susan was gone last night,
she was out at Purse Bingo. Yeah, I guess you
went to person Yeah, yeah, purs Bingo. She won fifty
dollars and I loved it. I watched Scarface on TV. Yes,

(10:33):
I got on my treadmill, I got some steps in
and and then when she came home, she came home
you know late, Yeah, and you know she smelt like cologne.
Oh no, and leather, oh no, leather, yeah, leather and no.
So I enjoyed my time alone last night. Yeah, I
totally did.

Speaker 4 (10:52):
Yeah, I loved time alone. I mean I do everything
by myself. And the last relationship that I was in
it was like a it was very much a COVID relationships.
So when lockdown was happening, we spent all of our
time together, so that once things started opening up, I
went back to my life doing everything by myself and
going out and doing things. And he was like, you
never invite me anywhere, Like, okay, well why don't you

(11:14):
come along then? And then he would complain the whole time,
so I stopped inviting him.

Speaker 2 (11:18):
So will you talk about this guy, I'm just I've
never heard anything. But I'm not trying to critique, but
I've never heard you say anything really pleasant about this
former boyfriend.

Speaker 5 (11:27):
That's really funny.

Speaker 4 (11:27):
But he was funny, so funny, but still like so
I wonder, I kind of wonder what her attitude is
when she did go along, and maybe that also kind
of tarnished it a little bit.

Speaker 5 (11:38):
Or you know, maybe he.

Speaker 4 (11:39):
Just does like to spend time by himself, which is
totally valid too.

Speaker 6 (11:42):
Yeah, I just I'd spent almost every minute that I'm
home with my girlfriend Alyssa, because we're the only two
real close people we have with each other. But we
understand going in separate room sometimes is fine, or just
not being next to each other every single minute. This
guy's problem is that he just never wants to do
anything with Sophia.

Speaker 2 (11:59):
Ever, that's an issue. There are some text messages. Here's
when it says, my fiance told me that he wants
to be in a relationship three or four days out
of the week. Other than that, he wants his independence,
not to be with other people, but just to be alone.
And I think that's sometimes that's really hard for extroverts
to understand why you want to be alone. And I
think that more and more people are now openly and

(12:20):
proudly admitting, hey, I'm an introvert. Yeah, you know, I
enjoy my time being social, but maybe not for like
a long time. I mean, sometimes we'll do something social
and after an hour or two, I'm like, Okay, you
not ready to go? Can we get out of here?
And other people that just thrive on that. Yeah, And
I think people are learning that it's it's okay to

(12:41):
be either way.

Speaker 6 (12:42):
I think COVID taught people straight across the board fifty
to fifty, like codependency, but also like I've learned to
do things by myself and I'm going to keep doing
things by myself.

Speaker 2 (12:51):
There is no in between.

Speaker 4 (12:52):
Yeah, I mean, what do they say that you are
born alone?

Speaker 5 (12:55):
You dialogue?

Speaker 2 (12:56):
I mean, what a sad thing? God, Bailey, anything any
other good news?

Speaker 4 (13:01):
No, but you should be like comfortable being by yourself,
and especially with like someone who you're in a relationship
with and you do spend a lot of waking hours with,
but then also like right up in their business.

Speaker 5 (13:11):
All the time.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
I would totally want to have time to be like
I'm leaving this room and I don't want you to
come with me. Like I think that's a totally valid
thing to want. Maybe I'm I'm literally just projecting.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
A little bit. Susan wants to go see her best friend,
who now doesn't live here anymore, after you know, living
here for thirty years. Yeah, she lives down in Nashville,
I want to say. And so she's like, I'm thinking
about going down seeing Terium, Like, let me help you pack,
let me give you ride to the airport when you
want to leave right now, let's go mean maybe next week?
Well why not right now? Taxi's going text messages that

(13:45):
will wrap up War of the Roses. This text says,
I like Jared, the guy that likes to be alone.
My husband and I have totally separate lives and interest
and friend groups with some overlap, but we very much
love our time together. Been together for twenty years. I
think that's true. Some upples want to be around each
other all the time, and I think that's great, and
other ones are like, you know what, I spent the

(14:07):
afternoon with you. I'm not going to be here tonight.

Speaker 4 (14:10):
Yeah. People, problem is that there are two different types
of people and they probably it probably won't work out
between Sophia and Jured.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
Probably not, And that is go ahead.

Speaker 6 (14:19):
People are texting like I guess because I said that
this guy has a problem.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
I'm not saying that. I'm just he never wants to
be with her.

Speaker 6 (14:25):
It seems like Sophia literally was just like, he never
invites me anywhere. I'm not saying you have to be
at your partner's hit at twenty four to seven, right,
I'm just saying, do someone you know

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.
