The St. Louis American

From the 314 Podcast and the Daily Newsletter and St. Louis Magazine, Sarah Fenske.

And from the St. Louis American, we welcome Alvin Reid, who's leading off first at bat on this, uh, edition.

Alvin, I thought it was very weird to read, I think it was Austin Huguelet's story in today's Post-Dispatch, that, uh, St. Louisans who thought they'd get some reprieve from the train horns at night, which have been blasting throughout all those sleeping hours because the city of St. Louis has not maintained the railroad c- crossings at m- hundreds of streets.

We're talking about the crossings, the signage, the pavement markers.

May, I assumed ownership in May of 2011.

St. Louis American Earl Austin ran the first story on the surge.

We were playing at Vashon High School.

Wow.

Joe Holleman, also from the Post.

And from the St. Louis American, we welcome Alvin Reid.

Well, Wendy, I thought this was most interesting in the pre-show discussion when we were talking about-

Mm-hmm

To not get too big for your britches, to not get too outspoken.

And so, like, my very first, my very first internship in St. Louis when I was a freshman in college, also in St. Louis at Wash U, I interned at the St. Louis American newspaper, which was our Black newspaper.

Um, and I remember my f- I got to interview B2K, which was very exciting.

Oh.

From St. Louis Magazine, her daily newsletter, and the Three One Four Podcast, let's welcome Sarah Fenske.

And last week's host and the week before that, thank you very much, give it up ladies and gentlemen for Alvin Reed from the St. Louis American.

Hey, let's also give it up for Alan Kriegshauser, local artist who has done great work and is sharing it with us this week in our continuing rotating art series here at Nine PBS.

Every month we choose another local artist's works and we display those works on the mantle behind me.
