We can't all hop on a plane and head to Hawaii when the craving for authentic poke calls but you can make the drive to the Tower Grove East neighborhood of St. Louis City and find a pretty great alternative. That was the entire goal behind Buzz's Hawaiian. Thomas Moore, better known to everyone as Buzz, started with a food truck after retiring from a career in aviation. After moving back to St. Louis after years in Hawaii, he missed the food of the islands. He shares the story behind the business, which has expanded to a brick-and-mortar restaurant, including the can't miss items on the menu that will have you taking a vacation via your taste buds.

In the most recent episode of Arch Eats, hosts George Mahe and Cheryl Baehr addressed one of the questions they're most frequently asked: Where do I go that's delicious and affordable? Listen to that episode to hear their picks for full-service restaurants where entrées are priced in the teens to twenties. With so many St. Louis restaurants serving high-quality, affordable fare, they devoted a follow-up episode to restaurants that serve authentic, reasonably priced international cuisine, whether in a fast-casual format or via table service.  This episode is sponsored by The Magic House and supported by the St. Louis Food Truck Association.

The city of St. Louis has brought a lawsuit against six Missouri residents who the city says are running a massive illegal rooming house operation in nearly every neighborhood in south city. Riverfront Times staff writer Ryan Krull shares how the operation may have been heavily subsidized by taxpayers through pandemic relief funding, why it took so long for the city to take action, and the effect the lawsuit may have on other problem landlords operating in St. Louis. Tower Grove East resident Joe Goodman, who lives near two of the defendant's properties, also joins the conversation.

In his weekly Roaming St. Louis segment, KMOX host Scott Jagow visits the International Institute in the Tower Grove East neighborhood. Started in 1919, the organization is among the best in the country at transitioning refugees and other immigrants to life in the United States.  Scott chats with Senior VP of Talent Development and Advocacy Blake Hamilton about the language, education, housing, and job components that are part of the process. Plus, the Institute is the driving force behind the Festival of Nations. What's the history and evolution of that event?

Steve, the lead singer for The Urge, started his business as a hotdog cart in 2008 after realizing St. Louis lacked a place that served fun food before and after live music shows.

Alderwoman Megan Green, D-15th Ward, has done a lot of campaigning over the last 29 months. Between October 2014 and April 2017, Green ran in three elections to secure a full term representing the ward, which covers parts of the Tower Grove South and Tower Grove East neighborhoods. Pretty soon after that last election, she set her sights on higher office. In the race for president, her main opponents are incumbent Lewis Reed and State Sen. Jamilah Nasheed, D-St. Louis. (You can find Reed’s episode of Politically Speaking here, and Nasheed’s episode here.) “I’m running for president of the Board of Aldermen basically because I feel like the status quo in our city is not working, and our city in order to move forward desperately needs some different leadership at the top of the board,” Green said.

Noah Oldham lives in St. Louis, Mo., with his wife and four children. He grew up in southern Illinois and graduated from McKendree College and Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary. He now serves as the Send North America: St. Louis city coordinator for the North American Mission Board. He is also the lead pastor of August Gate Church, a church plant in the Tower Grove East neighborhood of downtown St. Louis, which he planted in 2009. In his spare time, Noah enjoys date nights with his wife, cuddling with his kids and following the St. Louis Cardinals and Florida Gators.  

On the latest edition of the Politically Speaking podcast, St. Louis Public Radio’s Jason Rosenbaum, Jo Mannies and Rachel Lippmann welcome Alderwoman-elect Annie Rice to the show. Rice defeated 8th Ward Democratic Committeeman Paul Fehler on Tuesday to represent the 8th Ward in the St. Louis Board of Aldermen. The 8th Ward takes in the Shaw, Southwest Garden, Tower Grove South and Tower Grove East neighborhoods.
