On April 2, Jackson County residents will decide whether to approve a 3/8-cent sales tax that would fund a new stadium for the Royals and provide upgrades at Arrowhead Stadium for the Chiefs. The tax expected to generate about $2 billion over 40 years. A “Yes,” vote means the Royals will move out of Kauffman Stadium and build a new stadium in the Crossroads District. The Chiefs will stay put and improve the fan experience at Arrowhead. A “No,” vote means... No one is certain, but columnists Sam McDowell and Vahe Gregorian join host Blair Kerkhoff on SportsBeat KC, The Star's sports podcast, to break down this generational decision. We discuss what the vote means for Kansas City and offer predictions on the outcome. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

   123.4 million people watched the Chiefs beat the 49ers and we're betting that overnight number will be adjusted higher.  It's a new record for Americans watching anything.  In the aftermath, Andy Reid delivered the quote of the year... it's going to make you chuckle.  The Chiefs top rated player in the game was a linebacker that was part of the incredible draft class a couple years ago that has led to a complete makeover of this team.  Incredible.    The Royals are set to announce plans for a new downtown ballpark in the Crossroads District.  I like the site and only have one question.  But it's a big one.    KU gets bombed in Lubbock Monday night as Bill Self gets kicked out of the game.  There are two things that are really, really different about KU this year and I will share those with you.    Joe Biden is going to the doctor so they can put out a report telling us he's ok.  This after a new poll shows 86 percent of American say Biden is too old to run.    Trump has his pick for Chair of the RNC and plans to attend a Fani Willis hearing in Atlanta Thursday.  I can't wait.  And environmentalists are telling us not to buy flowers for Valentines Day because flowers are bad for the environment.  I'm buying twice as many!

This week, I wanted to try something a little different for the podcast. I wanted top focus on The Crossroads District, in Kansas City. I took portions from previous episodes of guests who have all represented the crossroads in some fashion. This episode you will hear about Mother Clucker, Mean Mule, Pirates Bone Burgers, and Parlor. I am also hoping that maybe this episode will encourage you or remind you that small local business and the service industry could really use all of our support during these virus times. I fear for small establishments in these upcoming months, with new restrictions and curfews, winter shutting outdoor dining down, and more.

Episode 2: Mean Mule Distilling Co. in the Crossroads District is one of the most unique distilleries in the not only KC, but in the United States! Distinct because of what they distill. They make American Agave Spirits... Haven't heard of it? It has a very familiar taste. But as I experienced, it's so much better... and made in KC.

The first episode of 2019 features Kyle Gray from Casual Animal Brewing Company in the Crossroads District of KC. Stop in for a delicious beer (or ten) before or after any event downtown or make the brewery your event for the day. Kyle and his wife, Lara opened the taproom just shy of a year ago. I wish them the best of luck moving forward. As I am working my way into improving this podcast, I want to thank Kyle for letting me come in on a day they were closed and pouring me some beer to try while interviewing. My ancient GoPro died mid interview and we had to improvise on the video side. Find it on YouTube. This is actually episode 7. I misspoke in the interview stating it was number 6.   Casual Animal Brewing Company Video

After almost 20 years of pursuing his dream in the kitchen, Chef John C. Smith opened his own restaurant, EJ'S Urban Eatery, in August of 2017 in Kansas City's historic West Bottoms. The restaurant is a modern version of the traditional Southern comfort food concept known as a Meat and Three. A Chicago native, Smith, was instantly exposed to one of America's greatest food cities, which led him to develop a love of all things food at an early age. He developed his appreciation and experience with southern cooking from his grandmothers, whom he visited every summer and during the holidays, in Mississippi. John chose to follow his passion for food professionally by enrolling at the Cooking & Hospitality Institute of Chicago in 1998. During that time, he worked at Chicago's celebrated Park Avenue Café, under award winning Chef David Burke. Soon after, John wanted exposure to new foods and cooking techniques so he moved to Paris to expand his knowledge and grow as a chef. There, he worked in several restaurants including the Michelin Three Star Restaurant, Taillevent. He returned to the United States after a year to work for Food & Wine Magazine's “Best New Chef,” Ted Cizma at Grace Restaurant, and at the famed Pump Room, under Chef Michael Gaspard, in Chicago. His career quickly took him throughout some of the country's top food cities from Chicago to New York to Des Moines and finally to KC. During his time in New York City, John had the opportunity work under award-winning Chef Tom Colicchio at Craft Restaurant. John fell in love with Craft because the restaurant focused on how to prepare and present a dish perfectly every time. Today, John continues to teach his cooks that “it doesn't matter if you have the finest ingredients if you do not have the right technique.” He also had the opportunity to work as the Sous Chef for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, helping to oversee all six restaurants within the museum. In 2005, he relocated to Des Moines, IA and worked at the award-winning Splash Seafood Restaurant. He later joined 810 Chop House, as Executive Sous Chef, which led to him opening the 801 Chophouse in downtown Kansas City, MO in 2008. In September 2012, John was asked to open The Jacobson as the Executive Chef in the growing Crossroads District in Kansas City, Mo. The restaurant's very public opening gained noteworthy attention surrounding his southern influenced American cuisine and generated national media coverage and substantial buzz from foodies. ​ Soon after, he rejoined the 801 Restaurant family as the Executive Chef of Pig and Finch Gastropub in Leawood, Kan. where he continued to use his talent of blending the influences of his childhood and mentors to create exceptional cuisine in a pub-like atmosphere. With his first chef-owned venture, Smith takes the lead on a national restaurant concept that brings Southern comfort food to the Midwest in the form of a modern styled Meat and Three. EJ's Urban Eatery is the first of its kind showcasing Smith's talents and giving customers the choice of several weekly seasonal features of a protein and three sides. The new restaurant, at 1414 West 9th Street, Kansas City, Mo. 64101, takes its place in a remodeled 100-year-old brick building in the old stockyard and warehouse district of Kansas City's West Bottoms – a section of KC experiencing immense growth and development. @EjsUrbanEatery #Eatlocal #KC #Meat+3 #SlackerMorningShow101theFox #TMobile
