Episode Transcript
I'm Alec Baldwin. Listen to my podcast Here's the Thing
on I Heart Radio. It's my chance to talk with artists,
policy makers and performers like the actress Kristen Bell. And
the moment I said, you know what, I have a
thing and it's a quirky, weird, fun thing that's can
be snarky and I love doing it. I do it
pretty well. Why not lean into it? And that is
(00:22):
when I felt like I started becoming happier. Music legend
Mick Fleetwood. Freetwood was always about change so that you
were accepted for who you were. Former Governor of Vermont
Howard Dean and I took the call in this quavering
voice and the other end of the phone says, I
regret to inform you that the governor has died of
a heart attack, and you're the governor. That was the
(00:42):
end of my medical practice and best selling author Isabel Wilkerson.
People would come up to me of all different backgrounds.
I would say to me, I had no idea that
this happened in our country. If you like listening as
much as I like talking with interesting people, go to

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.
