    Episode 325: Fox Theatre

    The Fabulous Fox Theatre is an institution in St. Louis. The marquee shines on Grand Avenue and welcomes St. Louisians to experience the best of Broadway right here in the Midwest. Opened as a movie theater almost 100 years ago, and then renovated and reimagined as a theatre in the early 1980s. Now it’s one of the premier destinations for live theater across the US. We sat down with John O’Brien, the Vice President of Programming and Marketing, to pull back the curtain and take you backstage. From the history to the future, and how exactly they pick which shows to put on the stage. Take a look at the lineup for the 2025-2026 season. Tickets go on sale later this spring.

    This year marks 10 years for St. Louis’ micro creamery Clementine’s. For the last decade, Tamara Keefe has helped put St. Louis on the map when it comes to ice cream.

But for Tamara, it’s not about the accolades but the ice cream fans here in St. Louis and beyond. We sat down at their ice cream production facility to talk about expansion plans, the innovations that led to the iconic naughty and nice flavors, plus the origin story of Clementine’s and how a girls' weekend started it all.

    Episode 323: Farm Spirit

    The spirit of spring is in the air and that means Farm Spirit is busier than ever. Farm Spirit has earned a loyal following over the years at the Tower Grove Farmer’s Market, but the brand is much bigger than a stand on Saturday mornings. Between the market, farm dinners and now the food partner at Blue Jay Brewing in Midtown, you can find their famous smash burgers and seasonal offerings most days of the week. Led by Ashley Batist and Ryan McDonald, the team is changing the game when it comes to fast casual, farm-focused food. We sat down with Ryan to talk about his journey from some of St. Louis’ best restaurants, including Monarch and Beast Craft BBQ, to fueling his creative culinary passions on his own terms.

    Episode 322: Missouri History Museum

    We can’t think about the future without first understanding our past. That’s the message in this week’s episode as we head to Forest Park to the Missouri History Museum. We sat down with Jody Sowel, the President of the Missouri Historical Society and one of the most fascinating interviews I’ve had in a while. Jody is a transplant of St. Louis but you’d never know it. He has a passion and a deep knowledge of our city that rivals those born and raised here. If you haven’t been to the history museum in a while, listen up because you’ll be shocked about everything new they have to offer and explore. We chat about it all as they gear up for some pretty big milestones.

Robin, named for his mom, opened in Maplewood this spring. The menu is a prix fixe menu for $75 with a focus on local produce, highlighting Midwestern cuisine. What exactly is Midwestern food? That’s a journey the chef has been discovering for years.
