Wolf & Owl with Romesh Ranganathan and Tom Davis

Wolf & Owl with Romesh Ranganathan and Tom Davis

Comedians Tom Davis (The Wolf) and Romesh Ranganathan (The Owl) shoot the breeze for an hour a week because they couldn’t work out a format. They also take on listener problems if they remember to ask for them before they record. Not enough podcasts are just people talking with no real purpose. We’ve come to change all that. It’s a huge waste of time, but an entertaining one. Contains swearing because it’s really cool. "As shooting the breeze goes, Tom and Romesh are as good as it gets" - Evening Standard For questions or comments please email us at wolfowlpod@gmail.com - we’d love to hear from you.

After a busy weekend on the Wolf & Owl Live tour eating far too many donuts, followed by numerous Work In Progress shows in London and Crawley, it’s a slightly weary Rom and Tom who join us this week. They also quickly realise that having spent so much time together, there’s not much chatting for them to catch up on. So instead of the usual shenanigans, they settle back and tackle some ‘Am I The Asshole’ dilemmas that have been sen...

    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.
