We slow down the break neck pace of the Story of London, to take the time to stop and look at how, in practical terms, London WORKED as a city; how all the disparate parts of it, the mayors, the Aldermen, the mass of poor, managed to coexist and function. In a chapter that draws upon the awesome work of historian Barbara Hanawalt, we explore how the city functioned as a living space… while setting up for a crazy few years ahead and dealing with a huge, high profile fire!

Why doesn't St. Louis have its own hot dog, like the iconic Chicago dog? That question was on restauranter Steve Ewing's mind when he created a March-madness style bracket and asked St. Louisans to choose the hot dog that best represented their city. Then, in 2022, the Board of Aldermen declared the competition's winner the Official Hot Dog of St. Louis. In this encore presentation, Ewing shares how to make a St. Louis hot dog and the inspiration behind its ingredients.

The Christian life is not one where Jesus' sacrifice forgives us the toll of sin and then we sit at the booth. It is meant to be a life driven by our union with Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, of overcoming, transformation, and fruit bearing. But the journey starts with belief. Welcome to another episode and the beginning of a brand new series called Rooted. With the opening message of the series, I would like to introduce Brendan Alderman. With a sermon titled "Growing Strong in Christ," Here is brother Brendan.

Milford parents are outraged after two motions to restore education funding didn't get the votes needed to pass. Ten votes were needed during the Board of Aldermen meeting to restore full or partial funding back to the schools and both failed to get the votes. Now the Board of Education has to decide where to make up that money in a meeting, including potentially closing a middle school or firing educators. We spoke with Kara Flannery of the Milford Ed Advocates group about the latest financial cuts to Milford schools. For more information: https://milfordedadvocates.org/ IMAGE CREDIT: Eric Urbanowicz

Early voting is underway for St. Louis' municipal primary. In addition to the races for the offices of mayor and comptroller, there are competitive primaries to represent the Third and Eleventh Wards at the Board of Aldermen. St. Louis Public Radio's Rachel Lippmann introduces us to the legislative candidates.

The St. Louis Board of Aldermen enter their spring elections break this week with no agreement on how to spend nearly $300 million of Rams settlement money. St. Louis Public Radio reporter Eric Schmid covered the whole saga and joins STLPR's Jason Rosenbaum to discuss what happened.

Members of the St. Louis Board of Aldermen this week chose to end discussions on allocating $294 million in Rams settlement money without any agreement. They likely will not resume consideration of any spending proposals until after board elections this spring. STLPR economic development reporter Eric Schmid discusses the twists and turns of the Rams saga including now-retracted assertions that aldermen were drinking on the job.

In this special episode we cover the last two days of the Peasants Revolt of June 1381- the destruction and carnage of the previous few days is dwarfed by the mayhem that is to follow; the Archbishop of Canterbury is hacked apart before a baying crown; scores of foreigners are massacred in the streets and the young king forced to hide out in a house in Blackfriars, as the city descends into utter chaos. But quietly, and behind the scenes, the Aldermen of London began flexing their muscles. From saving large numbers of Germans, to orchestrating the plan to kill the rebel leader, this is a story of how the Mayor and his allies were to emerge triumphant in the face of absolute horror.

In this segment, KMOX News reporter Sean Malone joins Chris Rongey and Amy Marxkors to discuss the chaotic Board of Aldermen meeting on Friday, which centered around the allocation of the Rams settlement money. Tensions boiled over as Alderwoman Pam Boyd pulled her bill out of committee, leading to a 11-4 vote and an abrupt meeting shutdown after a procedural vote overruled Board President Megan Green. The meeting's chaotic atmosphere was further fueled by allegations of drunkenness against Alderman Joe Vollmer, which Green later retracted. The lack of a clear resolution on the $40 million for water infrastructure raised concerns about the city's ability to manage the funds effectively. The group also discusses the future of the Rams settlement bills and the potential long-term impact on St. Louis' infrastructure.

June 1381- and the peasants revolts slams into London… but what really happened on those crowded and violent streets. The Story of London finally gets to examine the opening part of a terrible few days, where we see far from being angry yokels falling upon an unsuspecting city, rather it is the residents of London who use this as an excuse to settle old scores. From neighbour turning on neighbour in Southwark, from the suburbs of Smithfield, to the Temple and the Savoy, London erupted in flame and destruction, as buildings were set alight, torn down and people murdered.Yet what role did the Mayor and Aldermen play in all of this? Stalwarts opposed to the violence? Secret facilitators? Or men trying to thread an impossible needle, desperately seeking to stay one jump ahead of the terrible violence?

Alderman Timothy Sullivan proposed the ordinance that made it illegal for proprietors or managers of hotels, restaurants, and other public places to allow women to smoke on their premises. Despite public opposition, the New York City Board of Aldermen voted for it ...

In the last episode we saw how the ‘Stapler' faction of London's Aldermen had betrayed the ‘Radicals' and gained the concessions they wanted from Parliament, but refused to support the Radicals demand for the return of London's traditional rights. And this leads to a political backlash.Welcome to an episode that drags us into the heart of explosive politics, as political control swung from one faction to another, as the very way the city picked its leaders was changed drastically, and the intrigue and politics was played out over a backdrop of riots, insults, executions, and salacious comments about a Prince's heritage. Welcome to the most intense internal civil war the city had seen since the Magna Carta, a place where the city itself was said to be ‘armed, arrayed in red and white'.
