Speaker 1 (00:00):
Right back with Eddie and Rocky and Mark. I've seen
this woman on Facebook on her seen her reels. She
is a singer, songwriter and just kind of in her
spare time. She has deemed to write a Bengals song
pretty much every week after the Bengals games.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
And they're they're thematic right like there they fit the theme.
The song fits the theme of what may or may
not have happened.
Speaker 1 (00:29):
Generally in the style of another artist, Yes.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
Nother lnder or hearts the seasons over. Often they're still
drying and only so much can be expected.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
Is the same old thing with the third cube.
Speaker 3 (00:57):
It's been said, it's been said, walls up.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
And we have her with us right now. From a
dry Ridge to your radio? Is that our friend Sammy Riggs? Sammy,
welcome to the program. Hello, So was Sammy? Singer songwriter
Dry Ridge? Explain your story because you just want a
songwriting award in Nashville? Is that correct?
Speaker 4 (01:29):
So it's Nashville, Indiana?
Speaker 1 (01:31):
But yes, well, hey, Nashville's Naville. That's it. Yeah, there
you go.
Speaker 4 (01:40):
So yeah, So I grew up.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
In Northern Kentucky. I've been playing music since I was
really young, and I mean I've always been a songwriter,
but I feel like I've really honed in on the
craft probably over the last five years or so. And
I definitely have always used humor to relate to people,
(02:07):
and so.
Speaker 4 (02:09):
With the Bengals songs, it was.
Speaker 3 (02:11):
Just kind of a way to recap what has happened
during games during the season, and I kind of started
doing it a couple of years ago.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Very nice. So are all the songs you write or
perform are they themed around sports or local events that
that are things that are happening in the world, or what.
Speaker 3 (02:34):
Every I write about everything? So I have original music
on Spotify. Those are obviously more serious songs. So I mean, really,
if you're friends with a songwriter, anything can be turned
into a song. So you have to be careful what
you do and say, yeah, you might end up in
(02:57):
a song.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
It's like, Taylor Sweat, try you write a song about you?
Speaker 3 (03:03):
Now, I mean pretty much. Taylor and I are very
close in age. So when she was, you know, coming
into the picture, I was still in high school and
so I actually had a lot of animosity towards her
when I was younger. I think it was a lot
of jealousy of like man, she's doing what I want
(03:24):
to be doing. But now obviously, like I have so
much respect for her. But yeah, I just really enjoy
just writing and I always want to make people.
Speaker 4 (03:38):
Laugh if I can.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
You know, right now in your career doing this, can
you recall or take us back to a moment when
you had one hit big right or like got a
lot of attention, you know, because like music business is tough.
You can do this for a long time and kind
of go unnoticed, but do your call one that really
got a lot of play and kind of got you
(04:00):
a little recognition.
Speaker 3 (04:03):
I mean, honestly, up until now, the Bengals stuff has
probably gotten me more recognition than anything, just because you know,
the algorithm and people seeing things through the years.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Just being a local and you know, playing throughout the area.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
I've I've had people following me for a while just
from like singing in bars and restaurants and things like that.
But I feel like up until now I've kind of
been and part of it too, is just the grind
of like getting myself out there more, getting my original
music out there more. So I feel like over the
past year or two that's kind of it's it's just
(04:47):
all taking off more. But I think also because I've
been focusing on that more.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Okay, I've been Samy Rigazar guest and now are do
you find the It sounds like you just started doing
this for fun writing the Bengals song the Bengals songs.
Are you feeling pressure now that after every game people
are going, Okay, when's the net? What's summarize my feeling
of the song? Is this one going to be Guns n'
(05:16):
Roses latest Laws or what explain?
Speaker 3 (05:21):
I definitely feel a lot more pressure now. When I
first started doing it. I mean, obviously I started doing
it because it was fun and I was just being silly,
but I mean there was a lot of nervousness of like,
is anyone going to.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Care about this?
Speaker 3 (05:37):
And so when I started doing it a couple of
years ago, there would be weeks where I didn't do
a song because I'm like, I don't really know if
anybodybody really cares about this, And then I would have
people say, man, I was looking forward to your song.
So then I started realizing that people were kind of
paying attention, and I was like, Okay, well, if you
(06:00):
really care about this, I guess I'll just keep trying
to do it. And this season is probably the first
season I've really really felt the pressure of like, okay,
I got to put.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
Out a song and it's not even I mean, okay.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
So the Thursday night game wide Out with the Steelers,
that was an eight o'clock game. I have work the
next day, and I had people like where's your song?
Speaker 1 (06:23):
Where the song?
Speaker 3 (06:24):
And the guys I have a day job, Okay, I don't,
just this is not what I do for a living.
So they had to wait until, you know, after five
o'clock on Friday to hear my you know, recap of
that game. So, I mean, I'm watching the game and
(06:47):
I'm trying to think of songs, and I'm like, can.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
I write this?
Speaker 3 (06:51):
And I mean on Sunday, I wrote my song in
the fourth quarter of the game.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Pretty much.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Oh, the story was already told.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
I was told.
Speaker 3 (07:01):
But you know with the Cardiac Cats, okay, the which game?
Was it? A couple of games before that, I thought
we were going to win the.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Jets game probably, yeah, the Jets game.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
Yeah, So I wrote a whole song about winning and
then had to.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
Throw it all away.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
Yes, that's you know, there was many writers that write
columns about the Bengals had had the same thing happened.
So now, any plans of adopting this to UH Reds games,
you know, there's only one hundred and sixty two of them,
so you know, Cutch quick turnaround, bang those out like four,
four or five a week, right, Yeah.
Speaker 3 (07:45):
I don't. I mean, I follow the Reds, but I'm
I don't know as much about baseball as I do
about football, So that's my only that would be the
difficult part for me there. But I mean, even with
the football stuff, I have moments where I'm like, I mean,
you're never going to satisfy everyone's thought in a song.
(08:09):
And so even with you know, the songs that I'm posting,
I'll have commentary on and of like, well, the defense
actually did good this game, but the offense and it's like, okay, I.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
Know, but like notoriously, our defense sucks. So that's what
I'm capitalizing on.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Some people are very literal about it, and they want.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
Me to be very detailed, and it's like, okay, well
I can only do so much in ninety seconds.
Speaker 1 (08:36):
No, if you gotten any feedback from many of the
players at all, just curious about that.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
No, But I wish I did. I was hoping that
when when I wrote the Hallelujah song about Joe Burrow,
I was like, maybe he'll see it because I asked him,
you know, if you ever want to collab because he
plays piano.
Speaker 4 (08:58):
Now let me know.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Every big maybe you know what, maybe least reach a
little less high, maybe give find I don't know, if.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
I've got to get the long snappers.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
Yeah, some of them will start slow, might embrace that
a little big it. I don't know, no offan or
something or Chase Brown. Chase Brown is having a good
year running back. You might want to collab and get
a little little pub, little mileage for himself. It'll be good.
Speaker 4 (09:28):
Absolutely.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
And I will tell you that I wrote a song
today about the Spitgate scandal, so I will be posting
that tonight about Chase.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
I saw your post the other day on Facebook and
you said I will be spitting out a song in
a little bit nice. That's great. Yeah, what what is this?
What is this in the style of or is this
a Sammi original?
Speaker 4 (09:56):
It's not a semi original.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
It's fisha boozy okay, taboozy, yeah, okay, yeah.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
And I'm pretty I'm pretty proud of myself for this one.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
All right, Well, that'll be posted on Facebook and it's
reels and so you're on Instagram, Facebook, I assume both,
Yeah and TikTok.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
But I'll probably I'll probably get home after this and
record it and post it sometime this evening.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
All right, And if folks want to want to check
this out, where do they go? How do they follow
you or check your stuff out?
Speaker 3 (10:33):
If you go to Sammyriigs dot com, it's S A M, I,
R I G G S dot com. All of my
handles are there. It'll take you to my Spotify, my Facebook,
my Instagram, and my TikTok as well.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Now do you play out a lot, Sammy?
Speaker 4 (10:50):
Yeah? I do.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
I I probably play at least three or four shows
a month. I've definitely pivoted to doing more original music,
so I have. My next show is going to be
on Black Friday at South Kate House Revival, and that
is going to be all original music. So myself, my
(11:13):
friend Keayleen Talent, and my friends Chelsea and.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Zack of by SALLYA.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
Gold.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
It's just going to.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
Be a showcase of all the songs that we've written.
Nothing about the Bengals though.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
Very cool with that, Sammy, well will let you go,
good luck and keep up the good war.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
Kid, Thank you very much for having me have a
great night.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
Thanks Sammy.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Her name is Sammy Riggs. She's from dry Ridge and
uh yeah, see, I'm like she's saying she's jealous of
Taylor Swift. Well, I'm jealous of people who can do
stuff like that. I tried to learn how to play guitar. Dude,
I couldn't strum a chord.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I we know I played. Did I tell you I
played drunes for the band gun Middle Gray No, No, okay,
well let me tell you all about it.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
They were a metal, kind of a fair metal hair metal.
But we're kind of all over the map.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
I don't like to know.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
I don't like to talk about these things.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
But I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I don't think Gun Metal Grade did a whole lot
of James Taylor tunes.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
No, we didn't do that.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
We were all over the map, but we played very loud,
very average.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
How long did the did the band last?
Speaker 2 (12:23):
It's about you know, three years? Well, you know, and
that's not we played twenty five shows a year or anything.
But you know, of course about two and a half years.
We played maybe twelve, played a couple of festivals, played
a played a barn party.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Kind of it was it. I get the impression. It
was kind of spinal tappy.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Now.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
We were we were decent, you know, we we were good.
I mean that you guys, you know, didn't get long and.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
We looked there was there was some some you know.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
There's always the guy. The lead singer generally is the guy.
I'll tell you this.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Our our main argument and was always our our lead singer,
Ben Wilson, w my best friends in the world, great guy,
good singer. He would always want to play like, you know,
b sides off of Motley Cruz, like original first bootleg tape. Right,
I'm like, do you gotta play? We gotta play stuff
(13:22):
people know, you know what I mean, Right, and but
and you got to play a few songs that are obscure.
But there's there would be a couple of people in
the art like we played Firewoman by the Cult, and
you know that's not like a super well known song,
but there were a couple of people in the audience
are probably.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Like, hell, yeah, that was a fire Woman.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Good job we.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Killed that song.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
By the way, but uh, you know, but then sometimes
you would want to play again. Just some some.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Stuff no one knew. I mean, we're not talented enough
to carry that. Just see Boyman back there with the
headband on, the shirt shirt, the sass T shirt.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
I'll do our first show are that it was that
we used to call black Sheet was a public house
of ben Cheviot. Our speakers caught fire. We were running
so much amperage. These like like small speakers. I'm looking
at the back of it and it's like glowing hot.
I'm like, oh man, final ten, this is a problem.

Speaker 1 (11:35):
Her name is Sammy Riggs. She's from dry Ridge and
uh yeah, see, I'm like she's saying she's jealous of
Taylor Swift. Well, I'm jealous of people who can do
stuff like that. I tried to learn how to play guitar. Dude,
I couldn't strum a chord.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
I we know I played. Did I tell you I
played drunes for the band gun Middle Gray No, No, okay,
well let me tell you all about it.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
They were a metal, kind of a fair metal hair metal.
But we're kind of all over the map.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:04):
I don't like to know.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
I don't like to talk about these things.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
But I don't know.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I don't think Gun Metal Grade did a whole lot
of James Taylor tunes.
Speaker 5 (12:10):
No, we didn't do that.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
We were all over the map, but we played very loud,
very average.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
How long did the did the band last?
Speaker 2 (12:23):
It's about you know, three years? Well, you know, and
that's not we played twenty five shows a year or anything.
But you know, of course about two and a half years.
We played maybe twelve, played a couple of festivals, played
a played a barn party.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
Kind of it was it. I get the impression. It
was kind of spinal tappy.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Now.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
We were we were decent, you know, we we were good.
I mean that you guys, you know, didn't get long and.
Speaker 2 (12:51):
We looked there was there was some some you know.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
There's always the guy. The lead singer generally is the guy.
I'll tell you this.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Our our main argument and was always our our lead singer,
Ben Wilson, w my best friends in the world, great guy,
good singer. He would always want to play like, you know,
b sides off of Motley Cruz, like original first bootleg tape. Right,
I'm like, do you gotta play? We gotta play stuff
(13:22):
people know, you know what I mean, Right, and but
and you got to play a few songs that are obscure.
But there's there would be a couple of people in
the art like we played Firewoman by the Cult, and
you know that's not like a super well known song,
but there were a couple of people in the audience
are probably.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
Like, hell, yeah, that was a fire Woman.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
Good job we.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Killed that song.
Speaker 2 (13:39):
By the way, but uh, you know, but then sometimes
you would want to play again. Just some some.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
Stuff no one knew. I mean, we're not talented enough
to carry that. Just see Boyman back there with the
headband on, the shirt shirt, the sass T shirt.
Speaker 2 (13:57):

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.
