•Introduction to Podcast, Honoring Stories and Integrating Curriculum®: How to Build and Sustain Communities

•Carol explains her background as a principal and educator and the role she plays with the men as a parenting specialist

•Sarah and Carol share the importance to children of play in learning and connecting with loved ones
•Carol explains how welfare historically has worked against families, isolating men from families and discussion about the many layers of ramifications that has for each member of a family – what gets internalized and passed down across generations that came from a broken societal system
•Carol explains the hand up FFSC provides men and families instead of handouts and how programs are facilitated by male graduates who can say they’ve been there and come through

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.
