I’ve been following Alexis since her early days with KMOV and I love everything she does, including this podcast. You can tell she truly loves St. Louis and has so much knowledge on the food, cocktail, art and local business scene and takes a lot of pride (with tons of research) sharing that with her audience.
Whether you’re a seasoned STLouisian or are new to the area, I highly recommend checking out this podcast to find out what makes this often overlooked city, special.
