“It’s the closest you can get to being on the ocean in the Midwest." The Lake of the Ozarks is one of the most unusual places, in Missouri or really anywhere. @KCUR's podcast A People's History of Kansas City dives deep into its controversial creation. kcur.org/history/2023-07-27/…

I spent my hour long commute to and from high school listening to @ThisAmerLife. It's how I fell in love with journalism. Fast forward to now. Hearing my reporting and Renee's story on the show was...simply surreal. Listen here:thisamericanlife.org/789/the…

It's almost impossible to not know Wish-Bone Italian Dressing, the ubiquitous bottle in every supermarket in the country. What few people know is that this dressing was created by one family. In one restaurant. In Kansas City. @KCUR tells their story: kcur.org/arts-life/2022-12-1…

I pour my heart into a fashion podcast called Articles Of Interest. This season is a multi part documentary about preppy clothing- from Brooks Brothers to Ralph Lauren and I promise- it's really fascinating. Please subscribe and help spread the word? articlesofinterest.co/

🧵It's four days until Election Day, and my @kcur colleagues have been doing an amazing job diving deep into important, consequential races at the national, state and local levels. These aren't your average horserace stories, and they're worth your time this weekend:

ICYMI: We've been busy making a new podcast with @kcur's @peggyllowe. It's about a Kansas City, Kansas, police detective accused of terrorizing residents for decades — all while his department looked the other way. We really hope you'll listen. loom.ly/yHQvxqw

Hey, a little public service announcement from KCUR. If you're thinking about sending an unsolicited message to one of our employees – hosts, producers, reporters, anyone – in order to: - criticize their voice - talk about their appearance - ask them on a date instead, don't.

I know I'm biased, but I love this story by @juliedenesha for @kcur. It's so dreeaamyy, with Kansas City musician Camry Ivory on the Coloratura, a new instrument she invented. "It totally changed the way I approach music." kcur.org/arts-life/2022-09-0…

Independence, Missouri, was the epicenter of westward expansion in pre-Civil War America. Hiram Young, a formerly enslaved man, became the wealthiest man in the county by building wagons and ox yokes, before almost losing it all. loom.ly/ETiVfTM

Kansas City, I'm tryna see something for a story I'm working on: Are you a KCMO resident who's getting involved/making your voice heard on the upcoming vote on abortion in Kansas? Maybe you're knocking on doors, holding info sessions for KS friends, etc. I'd like to chat w/ you!
