Bernie Miklasz is synonymous with sports in St. Louis, where he has been writing stories and offering on-air opinions for nearly 40 years. Hear about Tony La Russa calling him at 7 a.m. the morning after a World Series game. Bernie tells us about the engaging personality of Whitey Herzog, the toughness of Kurt Warner, and how Albert Pujols changed on his return to the Cardinals. We're with Bernie for his first-ever story (about Gordie Howe), and he puts us in the press box during a crazy deadline at an October ballgame. Bernie reflects on the 1998 home run race and his evolving feelings about steroids, Mark McGwire, and judgment. There's his scoop about NHL coach Mike Keenan, and a revelation about where Bernie had to file his column from after the earthquake at the 1989 World Series in San Francisco. Bernie was the lead sports columnist at the St. Louis Post-Dispatch for 26 years (1989-2015), where he also blogged for the newspaper's website STLtoday.com and produced many podcasts, including “Breakfast With Bernie” and the “Best Podcast in Baseball.” He left the Post-Dispatch to join 101 ESPN in St. Louis to host a three-hour, weekday radio talk show. Bernie currently writes for ScoopsWithDannyMac.com and he contributes podcasts and videos for that website. He also hosts a weekday afternoon radio talk show on “590 The Fan” KFNS. Bernie began his career at the Baltimore News-American in 1979 and later moved to St. Louis in 1985 to cover the NFL Cardinals for the Post-Dispatch. When that team moved to Arizona in 1988, he also left to join the Dallas Morning News, where he covered Tom Landry's final season as coach of the Cowboys, the sale of the team to Jerry Jones, the hiring of Jimmy Johnson, and the drafting of Troy Aikman. Bernie returned to St. Louis the next year to become the lead sports columnist at the Post-Dispatch. He has been that city's top sports voice ever since. Bernie has provided extensive coverage of the Cardinals, the NHL Blues, two St. Louis NFL teams (including the Rams) and their departures, local college sports, and soccer, as well as more than 30 Super Bowls and multiple Olympics and World Series.

Some artists seem to be way ahead of their time, and they leave their mark because of it. In the early part of the 20th century, Hugh Ferriss was designing cities in a way that still influences today's filmmakers and artists today. Just press play to hear the whole story. ----- Click on search links to see if there are episodes with related content: Andrew Wanko, Architecture, Podcast Transcript: I'm Andrew Wanko, Public Historian of the Missouri Historical Society, and Here's History on 88-one, KDHX. ——— What do Batman's moody Gotham City, Superman's soaring Metropolis, Dorothy's glimmering Emerald City, and the dystopian Los Angeles of Blade Runner all have in common? They all owe some of their style to the drawings of one St. Louisan. ——— Born in St. Louis in 1889, Hugh Ferriss enrolled at age 17 in the architecture program at Washington University. After graduating, he gained a national reputation for his trademark style of architectural illustration. In a 1916 feature in the Post-Dispatch, St. Louisans got a look at ten of his brooding, powerful images of local buildings. In the images, structures like the Art Museum and New Cathedral float half-concealed in shadow above a moody nighttime world. But while Ferriss produced mesmerizing images of real-world buildings, it was his 1929 book The Metropolis of Tomorrow that pushed the imaginative limits of architects, poets, and filmmakers alike. ——— In The Metropolis of Tomorrow, Hugh Ferriss presented hypothetical visions of a near-future megacity meant to show readers where he believed urban life was headed. In his glowing future metropolis, skyscrapers are the size of mountains and floating superhighways cut through buildings. He presents interconnected building-top sky gardens, vertically stacked airports, and suspension bridges with high-rise apartment buildings hung between the cables. ——— Whether you find the Metropolis of Tomorrow's futuristic city hopeful and heroic, or overwhelming and terrifying, the images themselves are undeniably magnificent. Though Ferriss never constructed a building, few people have had a greater influence on how we perceive cities. Both the aesthetic look and dramatic atmosphere of the Metropolis of Tomorrow have been borrowed thousands of times over, in stage sets, comics, science fiction novels, movies and more. ——— Hugh Ferriss passed away in 1962 and was buried at Bellefontaine Cemetery in St. Louis. In honor of his legacy, the American Society of Architectural Illustrators gives out the annual Hugh Ferriss Memorial Prize for excellence in architectural rendering. ——— Here's history is a joint production of the Missouri Historical Society and KDHX. I'm Andrew Wanko and this is 88.1 KDHX St. Louis. ———

Ten years ago, in the attic of a home in St. Louis, two St. Louis Post-Dispatch sportswriters had a great name for a podcast -- thanks to a reader! -- but little idea how to actually put one together, let alone run the tech necessary. And thus the Best Podcast in Baseball began, but needed time to live up to its name. Co-creators of the BPIB, columnist Bernie Miklasz and baseball beat writer Derrick Goold, hold a reunion for the 10th episode of Season 10 and discuss all things about the 2022 St. Louis Cardinals: What rookies have staying power for years to come? What is the Cardinals' greatest need to go from good to great this season? Is the offense really as good as the numbers suggest, and how did it get there? What's up with the 2-6 record in games with a chance to sweep a series? In the 10 years since the beginning of BPIB, what are some of the discouraging trends in baseball -- and encouraging trends, too -- and if the Cardinals' winning record has only been the constant, has that invited complacency? All of that and more discussed with Miklasz, former Post-Dispatch sports columnist and now host of The Bernie Show (590 AM). The Best Podcast in Baseball, sponsored by Closets by Design of St. Louis, is a production of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, StlToday.com, and Derrick Goold.
