a lot of us feel alone, a lot of us
feel isolated. You know, the world wants us to be
(01:27):
these people. You know, it's like this thing out there.
There's masculinity, there's femininity, and they want you to be like,
I can do it on my own. No one needs
to fucking help me. I'm this person even if you
go old school man's way. You know what I'm saying.
I grew up I'm supposed to be the strong, independent
man who doesn't need no help. I don't need emotions,
(01:47):
i don't need feelings. I'm just this robot that's supposed
to fucking just do things. And like I said, this
is my perspective, this is my thoughts, because this is
exactly what I went through. You know, I didn't really
have a male figure in my life too show me,
teach me, or even help me understand all these emotions,
these feelings, these thoughts that I had so a lot
(02:08):
of my life growing up. When things got tough, when
life got fucking hectic, I'm like, oh shit, it's only me,
even though I got a wife, even though I got kids,
even though I got family. No one can help me
because I need to fucking sit on this island by
myself and struggle and fucking make things worse because I'm overthinking.
(02:28):
I'm fucking you know, having these emotions and feelings that
I didn't understand because it was anxiety depression. Like fucking
you know, I'm struggling here, I'm drowning. My head's underwater
and I'm popping up every swafting for breath because life
is overwhelming me. I'm completely overstimulated, I'm frustrated, I'm upset
because no one can help me. And that's how I
(02:51):
used to think. That's really how I used to feel,
not understanding that all I had to do is reach
my hand out of the water. All I had to
do was speaks fucking words and just unload my emotions
and my feelings, and that's all it would take, you
know what I'm saying, Like a lot of us, you know,
like we can't show this week side to our family.
(03:12):
We can't show this week side or these emotions will
get the fuck What if someone takes your vulnerable state
and uses it as a weapon against you. That really
shows you who to fuck you don't need in your life,
because those who are there to help you, those are
there to support you, those who are supposed to be
there in your life in a time of crisis. And
(03:32):
I'm not talking about financial fucking crisis. I'm talking about
emotional fucking crisis, as in, like, I'm freaking the fuck out,
what do I fucking do? I just need to fucking
talk it out and a solution will appear, because that's
really what will fucking happen. Like I said, it's fucking insane.
It is insane. You know what I'm saying. As a
young fucking twenty year old, fucking twenty five year old,
(03:54):
thirty year old, I was fucking struggling with this. I
would feel sick to my fucking stomach. I'd feel nauseous,
and you know what I'm saying, I'd feel like I
was dying because I didn't know what to do. I
didn't know who to turn to. I didn't know how
to fucking communicate in any fucking facet Because I'm supposed
(04:16):
to be this strong, fucking independent, fucking man who can
handle any fucking situation. It makes you sick. It absolutely
fucking does. But guess the fuck what, you know, those
who care for you, those who really support you, those
who fucking love you, will fucking be an ear to
hear you know what the fuck is going on at
offer her solution. Fucking you know, just something, all right,
(04:40):
and in the ways of like, don't bottle it in,
don't get frustrated, don't get fucking drunk, don't fucking fall
to these fucking you know things that typical men fucking do,
people fucking do, everybody fucking do, because it goes across
the board. Everybody has these fucking feelings because you're never
really alone. We just isolate ourselves. We isolate ourselves because
(05:01):
we have this fucking archaic thought process. You know, it's
okay to acknowledge your feelings, it's okay to acknowledge your emotions,
it's okay to accept what the fuck is happening or
going on in your life. And then once you accept
it and you fucking talk about it, you speak on it.
You fucking you know you you you fucking understand what
(05:26):
you need to do because of what the fuck's going on.
It really changes your life. It changes the perspective, It
changes the outcome. It changes what's going on right there.
And then a lot of times we have these huge
life events that fucking happen, and guess what, it'll show
you who fucking cares and who know who don't give
a fuck. So you know who to fucking cut off,
(05:48):
and you know who to fucking keep You know who
to fucking keep your arm on. When you're succeeding, you
know who you need to be there for, and when
you're fucking succeeding, you know who not to be there for.
You know, there's a lot of people in your life
that will only be around because you're winning, and there's
a lot of people in your life that'll be around
because of you. Who you are, how you treat them,
(06:12):
how you act in all these situations. You know, I've
definitely had my struggles in life, and there's a lot
of fucking people and a lot of fucking things I
don't associate with, talk to, or fucking just have around
because I've had that fucking struggle. I've gone through all
these emotions, I've gone through all these feelings, and so
(06:33):
every time something happens and I fucking start feeling the
world closing in on me, I fucking take a deep
fucking breath, think about it, even talk to myself about it,
speak it out loud, because sometimes talking about it will
take away its fucking power. And then I'll talk to
my wife, I'll talk to my mom, I'll talk to
(06:53):
my fucking my closest friends, and just helping relieve the
pressure that I'm feeling on the inside, because that pressure
you feeling the inside, and if you don't let it out,
you will explode, whether in a good way, a bad way,
or horrible way. Because once you start feeling that anxiety,
(07:14):
you start feeling that pressure, and that's what that pressure is,
is anxiety inside of you. And so once you understand
what it is and you just start letting a little
steam off at a time, you don't fuck up your life.
You don't make rash decisions, you don't blow up on
the fucking people you love. You don't say nasty fucking
things that hurt the people you love, because I've definitely
(07:36):
done that. I've definitely hurt emotions, I've definitely hurt feelings.
I've definitely ruined relationships because I kept it all inside.
I didn't understand that that that tingliness, that sensation that's
building up and building up and building up. That's anxiety,
that's depression, that's that's something that once you know what
(07:58):
it is and you understand what it is and you
can stop it from happening, it no longer has control,
It no longer has power, It's no longer something to
worry about because you fucking get it, you fucking understand it.
You know what I'm saying. You take away this thing
that happens to you in your life happens to everybody.
(08:20):
There's not one goddamn fucking person on this planet that
don't have these feelings, don't have these emotions, don't have
these thoughts. So when you're having one of those moments
where you feel you're alone, remember these fucking words. You're
not alone. There's other people doing the exact same thing
you're doing right now. There are so many people in
this world. The odds are this very fucking second, this
very fucking moment, the same thing's happening to somebody else,
(08:43):
And because of that, do what it takes to take
care of it. Nip it in the fucking button, Realize
what it fucking is, Understand that you can control it.
Understand that you can take charge. Understand there's a solution.
Because there is a solution. There's an answer. A solution
(09:04):
is an answer. But that's what I'm trying to tell
you to you twice. I don't want you to feel alone.
I don't want you to phil upset. I don't want you
to be overwhelmed. I don't want you to be fucking
drowning in your emotions and your feelings. And the reason
I don't want you to do that is because I
don't like the way it fucking feels, and so I
goddamn know no one else does either. But the thing
(09:24):
is is you're not alone. You have support, You have
those around you. You can feel dark, deep fucking depressed,
locked away and have all these emotions and all these
feelings trapping you inside a room but no way out.
But that's not the truth. That is never the truth.
(09:45):
And the reason it's not the truth is because we
all have support. And if you really truly alone, all
by yourself, guess the fuck what. There are programs, there
are people, there are things that you can call, and
it takes you to get off your fucking ass and
(10:06):
just make the fucking call, reach out to one of
these support groups. Reach out to one of these support systems,
reach out to somebody that can hear you, because guess
fuck what there are there, it's a Google search away.
We all have fucking phones, we all have access to
the internet, we all have the ability to help ourselves,
(10:29):
and you have to realize that. You have to understand that.
You have to fucking get it, because I don't know how.
I don't want nobody to go through that. I want
no one to feel like that. I don't want no
one to fucking be like that. I want you to succeed.
I want you to be happy. I want you to
be successful, and the way that's gonna be is by
(10:52):
understanding one's fucking self. That's why I talk about these things.
That's why I speak on these things because I've gone
through it. I've had this fucking happen to men. I've
had shit fucking fall apart on me, and I don't
fucking want that to happen to everybody. And if I
can just share my fucking side, share my fucking views,
share my fucking thoughts, guess the fuck what, life gets better.
(11:13):
So guess the funk what this is? The angry motherfucking dad.

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.
