I sit down with the legendary creators of Babas, Charleston (now with a HOT new location on Wentworth!) Marie Stitt and Edward Crouse to talk about how they cracked the code on the All-Day Cafe.( But mostly we just laugh and eat cream puffs. ) I missed you, more shows coming soon.

The newlyweds, Lord and Lady William Campbell, settled in England after their 1763 marriage in Charleston, but the young couple actively nurtured familial connections to South Carolina over the course of the ensuing decade. Political, financial, and naval alliances made during the 1760s, followed by a tour of the colonies and a relaxing sojourn in Charleston in 1772, fortified their bonds to His Majesty's most profitable colony in North America.

This week we'll be talking with Charleston author Victoria Benton Frank about her new novel, The Violet Hour. Victoria was born in New York City, raised in Montclair, New Jersey, but considers herself to have dual residency in the Lowcountry. She is a graduate of the College of Charleston and the French Culinary Institute. Her mother was the late Dorothea Benton Frank, a best-selling novelist and native of Sullivan's Island.With the release of The Violet Hour (2026, Simon & Schuster), her second novel, she continues to hone her craft, this time with a story of grief and healing.

Silver Quintette - "Sinner's Crossroads" [As early as 3000 BC the Roman and Cretan civilizations were using candles on altars to help receive the blessings and needs that they desired. Today it is no different. Practically, every religion uses spiritual candles on altars as part of rituals for Easter, Passover, or offerings to Buddha. Spiritual candles are used with magical oils and incense, both in community gatherings or private mediations for help to focus on the blessings and the needs that are desired. Spiritual candles will help you pray and focus your thoughts and desires to help you receive more wealth, happiness, and control of your situations. Spiritual candles and specific herbs, special products, or a prayer request combine to be a more powerful draw for your desires and wants.] [0:00:00] Mt.

In 1871, Ku Klux Klan violence in South Carolina got so bad that the governor sent a telegram to President Ulysses S. Grant warning that he was facing a state of war. Grant sent him Amos Akerman: a former Confederate soldier and slaveholder who became the U.S. government's most zealous warrior against the KKK.Guests:Bernard Powers, director of the Center for the Study of Slavery in Charleston at the College of Charleston in South CarolinaGuy Gugliotta, author of Grant's Enforcer, Taking Down the KlanKidada Williams, professor of history at Wayne State University and author of I Saw Death Coming, A History of Terror and Survival in the War Against ReconstructionTo access bonus episodes and listen to Throughline sponsor-free, subscribe to Throughline+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org/throughline.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

The Harlem Renaissance was a vibrant 1920s-1930s Black cultural movement centered in Harlem, a hub for African American creativity, literature (Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston), music (jazz, blues), and art (Aaron Douglas), fueled by the Great Migration and a desire to redefine Black identity that forged a new sense of Black Pride. In this program, we hear less well known artists such as James (“Big Jim”) Reese Europe who led an orchestra of 120 musicians. We also hear iconic songs of the era including Fats Waller's “Ain't Misbehavin'”, Mamie Smith's massive 1920 hit “Crazy Blues,” Cab Colloway's “St. James Infirmary” and more. Along the way, we'll enjoy the Fletcher Henderson Orchestra featuring Louis Armstrong on trumpet and vocals and Coleman Hawkins on sax, Ethel Waters, James P. Johnson, and Willie the Lion Smith. Harlem also drew the top Cuban orchestras who came to New York by steamship to record, calyso singers, and Haitian vodou music and theater. Harlem was famous for its rent parties and a wide open attitude to defying Prohibition where revelers danced to the shimmy, the black bottom, and the Charleston from down south. Relive the glory!

In this episode, we sit down with Walker Antonio, a Virginia-based Filipino-American painter whose work blurs the boundaries between the real and surreal, the physical and psychological. Working primarily on a large scale, Walker's process moves from energetic chaos to deliberate refinement—a philosophy that extends to his remarkable career trajectory. Just 18 months after graduating from Wofford College with his BA in Studio Art and Art History, Walker has built an impressive professional practice. He shares his unconventional journey from receiving the 2023 Whetsell Family Fellowship to spending 10 months at a ski resort in Germany, and how he quickly gained representation with three galleries upon returning stateside. We dive into Walker's evolving artistic practice—from large-scale figurative works exploring themes of environment and identity to experimental 6x6-inch pieces that challenge his understanding of composition. He opens up about the pivot points in his career, including creating 34 pieces in 10 days during the Foundation House Artist Residency and showing alongside Picasso and Basquiat at the Palm Beach Modern Contemporary Art Fair. As the first visual artist selected for the Kenan-Lewis Fellowship at Woodberry Forest School, Walker offers candid insights on balancing teaching, pursuing his MA in Fine Arts from Falmouth University, and managing the business side of art. He emphasizes the power of authentic networking over social media growth, the many hats artists must wear (accountant, marketer, graphic designer), and why he's chosen to avoid commissions to protect his creative vision. With solo exhibitions at Stevenson & Co. (Charleston, SC) and the Rhodes Art Center (Gill, MA) in 2025, plus upcoming shows at Sheridan Studios (Macon, GA) in February 2026 and the Baker Gallery (Woodberry Forest, VA) in November 2026, Walker's career is rapidly expanding. His work has been published in American Art Collector and Suboart Magazine, with forthcoming publication in the Penn Journal of Arts and Sciences. Whether you're an emerging artist or simply curious about the art world, Walker's perspective on treating Instagram as a living portfolio, his strategic approach to artist residencies (including his upcoming 2026 Elf School of the Arts Residency), and his commitment to "just keep going" will inspire you to pursue your creative path with intention and authenticity.

Send us a textThe College of Charleston is excited to announce the launch of a new podcast from the Athletics department. On the Prowl with Charleston Athletics is hosted by longtime men's basketball play-by-play announcer Everett German. For more than two decades, German has been the voice behind some of the College's most memorable moments on the court. A job that he says brings him joy. “As I often tell people, I have the coolest part-time gig in the world,” says German.On the Prowl will bring listeners behind the scenes of Cougar athletics, offering candid conversations with student-athletes, coaches, and administrators across all of the College's 19 varsity sports.“We're excited to launch “On the Prowl,” says Matt Roberts, Director of Athletics at the College. “With the everchanging landscape of college athletics, we continue to look for unique ways to communicate with Cougar fans around the country. On the Prowl will deliver in-depth stories from student-athletes, coaches and staff giving our fans, donors, and stakeholders insight to the happenings of not only Charleston athletics, but the college athletics landscape as a whole.”And for German, who was recently named a 2025 Cougar Trailblazer for his impact on the College and the local community, the opportunity to spotlight the next generation of athletes is especially meaningful. “We have so many unique student-athletes who represent the College on and off the court, and we want people to see who they are beyond the jersey,” says German. “They're not robots, they're going to make mistakes, and they have feelings and emotions just like everyone else. Some of them have overcome serious medical challenges to get where they are. Others have come from countries where English isn't their first language. This podcast is a chance to tell those stories and help people understand what our kids go through, the training, the travel, the academics and the pressure from social media. Hopefully this can connect generations of Cougar fans and give everyone a deeper appreciation of who these student-athletes really are.”On The Prowl will launch in February 2026. Cougar fans can listen and follow the show on all major podcast platforms.

Episode 356 features Justin Osborne of Susto! He's definitely a full-time rock star, and I honestly don't know where to begin with this one, because they're easily in my top five favorite bands of all time. It was incredibly humbling and exciting to have Justin on the show. I've always described Susto to my friends as a sort of psychedelic Americana, but of course they have a whole host of other influences in their sound. At the core of it all, though, is Justin's songwriting and storytelling, which is often off-the-wall, honest, comedic, clever, and zen all at the same time. I first found Susto through a YouTube series called Susto Stories and was immediately hooked. The originality of the stories and lyrics, the soft, textural environment, and the soothing Southern influences in the music create such a calm, warm, yet engaging sound. One that stands apart from anything else I've ever heard. If you're looking for a place to start, I'd definitely suggest their first album or that video series. In the conversation, we talked about Justin's musical journey, starting out in Charleston, his short venture studying abroad in Cuba, the intricacies of psychedelics, songwriting, the Austin music scene, The String Band, and much more. I primarily wanted to get Justin on the show this week because he's playing solo again at Schmidt House in Catonsville, MD, on February 11 (ticket link in the episode notes), and we're all super excited about it. I also can't say enough good things about Schmidt House shows and how much fun they are in general. I've often referred to Mark Schmidt as the Great Gatsby of Catonsville, and I continue to stand by that. Lastly, I've never had a more difficult time picking a song from a band for an episode—because I could literally feature any of them—but I figured I'd include the song that first introduced me to Susto, “Drug Money,” as well as one of their most recent releases, “Break Free, Rolling Stone.” If you're in the neighborhood, I highly recommend coming out to this show and having some beers with us! https://www.eventbrite.com/e/susto-schmidt-house-tickets-1980430363529   Please follow, rate, or review the podcast wherever you are streaming if you'd like to help us out.  -- Part-Time Rockstar Productions is available in the DMV for music videos and live filming.

In this episode of Retire Southern, James Lewis sits down with Dave Echols, President and General Manager of the Charleston RiverDogs, inside the press box at Joseph P. Riley Jr. Park. Dave shares the simple philosophy that has guided nearly two decades of leadership. Fun is good. You will hear how that idea influences everything from staff culture and fan experience to community engagement and trust. The conversation also explores the RiverDogs' role in Charleston beyond baseball, including the powerful moment following the Mother Emanuel tragedy, when city leaders made a simple request. Play the games. Open the gates. This is a thoughtful conversation about joy as strategy, community as responsibility, and why a ballpark can be more than a place to watch a game. Sometimes it becomes a place to heal. Listen to the full episode and explore the complete written feature at retiresouthern.com.

A Tale of Two Carolinas: Ice Inland, Warm Air at the Coast. Join the Carolina Weather Group for a special Saturday evening live update as a major winter storm moves across North and South Carolina. Host Sam Walker, along with James Brierton in Charlotte and Frank Strait in Columbia, break down the incoming freezing rain, sleet, and massive temperature divides impacting the region on Saturday, January 24, 2026.While the storm has slowed down due to a very dry air mass, a "big blob of junk" is moving in, bringing dangerous ice to the Piedmont and Upstate, and spring-like warmth to the Lowcountry.❄️ Key Takeaways from Tonight's Update:The Delay Explained: The storm is moving slower than anticipated because a very dry air mass is evaporating the precipitation before it hits the ground, but dangerous ice is still on the way for the overnight hours.Major Ice Threat: Areas along the I-85 corridor, Upstate SC, and the NC Triad/Piedmont could see a quarter to half-inch of ice accumulation.Power Outages Looming: Anything above a quarter inch of ice will cause trees and power lines to come down. Duke Energy and out-of-town contractor crews are already staged and ready to respond.Extreme Temperature Divide: We are looking at a 30-to-40-degree temperature difference across the states! Coastal areas like Charleston and the Outer Banks could see highs in the 60s and 70s with a risk of severe thunderstorms, while inland areas remain trapped in the 20s and 30s.Monday Impacts: Travel will remain hazardous. School districts, like Rock Hill, are already moving to e-learning for Monday.

Episode 51: The Unfortunate Pirate For over a century, "Annabel Lee" has been read as Edgar Allan Poe's final love poem—a haunting elegy to his child bride Virginia, written months before his death. But what if we've been wrong about the poem's true subject all along? In this episode, Mike follows a trail of evidence from a forgotten 1827 tale about a murderous pirate to the windswept shores of Sullivan's Island, where Poe was stationed as a young soldier. Along the way, he uncovers a family accusation that pursued Poe his entire life, a poem he was forced to burn, and the testimony of a woman who nursed him through his darkest hours. What emerges is a radical reinterpretation of America's most famous poem of loss—and a story about what it means to defend someone you love when the whole world has turned against them. The grave of Annabel Lee has finally been found.

Matt interviews Tim Bratz, breaking down why Tim has challenged “traditional” syndication norms—especially fee-heavy structures and LP/GP splits that can leave operators with too little skin in the game. Tim shares how his equity/preferred return approach evolved from his single-family/private money background, and how tighter cash flow post-pandemic has pushed him toward more creative capital stacks (assumable debt, seller carry, accrued pref, and depreciation levers). He also digs into why third-party property management misaligns incentives, why in-house management is a key common denominator among operators who aren't struggling right now, and how he's building an AI-powered, all-in-one property management platform to unify ops + accounting + payments + reporting.

Brooks Reitz writes the wonderful newsletter A Small & Simple Thing, which has become one of our favorite reads. He also runs restaurants in Charleston and New Orleans, including Leon's Oyster Shop, Little Jack's Tavern, Melfi's, and the Bell. In this conversation we talk about Brook's unique worldview, built around restaurant hospitality, tastemaking (the not annoying kind), and design. We talk about the recent British Invasion for restaurants in America, and his acquisition of the Houston's / Hillstone training manual.  And before that we have a great conversation with Johno Morisano and chef Mashama Bailey, partners at The Grey, an acclaimed and progressive restaurant located in historic downtown Savannah, Georgia. In this interview we chat with the pair about how they think about the big picture (together) and bounce around menu ideas (sometimes, not together). It's an enlightening and entertaining conversation about collaborating in a modern dining setting.  The views expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers – not of Resy—and do not constitute professional advice.

Jason breaks down where automation works, where it fails, and why the most important calls; the ones that shape trust, reputation, and outcomes still demand a human voice.This episode is about people, culture, and responsibility. About earning profit the right way.

Jason is joined by his friend, Chris Singleton, for a powerful and inspiring conversation about love being stronger than hate. Please rate and review the podcast to help amplify these messages to others! Summary: In a polarized world, how do the most effective leaders foster unity and performance? In this live episode from Thermostat Cultures Live, Jason V Barger sits down with former professional baseball player and inspirational speaker Chris Singleton. Born from the tragedy of the Charleston church shooting, Chris's message of resilience challenges leaders to rethink how they navigate adversity and influence their teams. This conversation moves beyond standard leadership platitudes to address the core mechanics of human connection in the workplace. Jason and Chris explore the concept of "catalysts"—individuals who alter the trajectory of our lives—and discuss how executives can become those catalysts for their own organizations. They also deconstruct the traditional view of accountability, shifting it from a punitive measure to a reciprocal tool that builds trust and reinforces positive behavior. Essential listening for C-Suite executives, HR directors, and team leaders committed to shaping compelling cultures, this episode offers actionable insights on emotional intelligence, the cost of grace, and the power of shared ownership. Episode Notes & Timestamps: [00:00] Intro: Jason welcomes listeners into the room at Thermostat Cultures Live, setting the stage for a conversation on authentic leadership. [00:02] Meet Chris Singleton: Introduction to Chris's background as a former Chicago Cubs draftee and his pivot to inspirational speaking following the tragedy in Charleston, SC. [00:04] Identifying Your "Catalysts": Chris identifies the three pivotal figures who shaped his worldview on love and leadership: his high school coach, his wife, and a mentor who taught him financial literacy. [00:07] Owning the Mistake: A look at Starbucks' response to crisis as a case study in corporate accountability and the importance of leaders owning their shortcomings to build empathy. [00:09] Redefining Accountability: Jason and Chris discuss why accountability is often viewed negatively and how to reframe it as a reciprocal, "two-way street" that acknowledges positive actions as much as negative ones. [00:14] The Wellness-Performance Connection: Insights from the room on how the well-being of employees directly correlates to high performance and trust within an organization. [00:15] Who Carries the Culture?: A critical question for every executive: Does the culture survive and thrive when leadership is not in the room? [00:18] The Cost of Grace: A profound discussion on forgiveness in leadership and life—why grace often costs more for the giver than the receiver, and how to maintain boundaries while moving forward. Key Takeaways for Leaders: Reciprocal Accountability: Shift your team's mindset to view accountability as mutual support rather than top-down policing. Culture Ownership: Strategies to ensure your organizational values are upheld by every employee, not just senior management. Resilience: How to use personal adversity as a foundation for empathetic and strong leadership.

In the spring of 1969, hundreds of workers, all Black and mostly female, went on strike at Medical College Hospital and Charleston County Hospital to protest racial discrimination, low wages, and the marginalization of their dignity. The movement began with an incident of wrongful termination in 1967 involving five Black women at Medical College Hospital that uncovered the pervasiveness of racial and economic discrimination at both hospitals. The termination sparked outrage among other hospital workers who, with support from local community leaders, organized a movement that galvanized the city, state, and nation. We Paved the Way: Black Women and the Charleston Hospital Workers' Campaign (UP of Mississippi, 2025) explores this campaign in the context of a broader protest tradition, revealing it to be a full-scale movement that demonstrates the power and complexity of Black women's activism in the mid-twentieth century. O. Jennifer Dixon-McKnight argues that the experiences of the women at the center of this conflict offer a window into the plight of Southern Black working-class women and the ways in which they fought for equality, access, and well-being. Though much of what has been written about the hospital workers' campaign focuses on the strike through an institutional lens, Dixon-McKnight uses extensive interviews and oral history to expand the scope of existing scholarship. Local leaders such as Septima Clark, Esau Jenkins, William Saunders, and Isaiah Bennett served as bridge builders for the Black community's involvement in protest, which helped shape and nurture the hospital workers' campaign. By discussing the grassroots organizing that sparked the strike and tracing the aftermath of the conflict, including what workers experienced in their return to work and their relationships with the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and Local 1199 Hospital and Nursing Home Employees Union, this volume situates the hospital workers' movement as a critical moment in the nation's long civil rights history.

THE ARDUOUS SOUTHERN TOUR AND CIVIL WAR ECHOES Colleague Nathaniel Philbrick. Washingtonundertakes an exhausting 2,000-mile journey through the South to unify the country, visiting federalist cities like Charleston. Philbrick notes the eerie experience of following this path, where the ruins of plantations burned during Sherman's March create a visible link between the founding era and the destruction of the Civil War.

This week on Ask Farnoosh, we're zooming out—on money, career, and life—and talking about the moments when endings, uncertainty, and discomfort can actually become powerful financial turning points.I start the episode reflecting on a popular “10-years-ago” trend and what my own life looked like in 2016—from a canceled CNBC show to pregnancy news that reframed everything. It's a reminder that what feels like loss in the moment can open space for growth we couldn't have planned.I also break down a few headlines that matter to your wallet, including what retail bankruptcies mean for consumers, why bank stocks took a hit this week, and how proposed credit-card interest rate caps could affect access to credit. Plus, a personal reflection on watching events unfold in Iran and how global news can be deeply personal—and financially relevant.Then we head into your questions:
