Texas Trio Steals Thousands from Pharmacies | St. Louis News

Three Texas dudes pulled off a brazen pharmacy heist across Missouri and Kansas, stealing over 25,000 doses of painkillers worth $62,000 — and now they’re paying the price: 10 years, 7 years, and 4 years behind bars. The crew rolled into action in July, with one guy driving while the others smashed into pharmacies, all caught when a getaway RAV4 was pulled over and stuffed with stolen drugs. Multiple states teamed up to nail them — and justice served. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Pelosi Backs Bell in Missouri Primary | St. Louis News

Nancy Pelosi just made a big move in Missouri, showing up in Ferguson to rally behind Wesley Bell in his bid to retain his House seat — a rematch against Cori Bush, the fiery former congresswoman he narrowly defeated in 2024. With a historic fundraising haul last time around, this race is heating up fast. Pelosi praised Bell as a pragmatic legislator focused on results, not rhetoric, and teamed up with Rep. Emmanuel Cleaver to slam GOP plans to slash federal health funding. While both candidates agree on abortion rights and criminal justice reform, their biggest divide? Gaza. Bush accuses Bell of accepting pro-Israel money and letting it sway his stance — a charge Bell’s camp hasn’t addressed yet. With Bush’s team silent for now, this primary is shaping up to be one of the most watched in the nation. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

St. Louis Power Outage Explained | St. Louis News

Over 3,000 St. Louis City residents plunged into darkness Saturday afternoon as a cascading substation failure triggered widespread outages—especially in Clifton Heights and Northampton. While weather played no role, crews raced to fix the initial equipment glitch, only for a second failure to compound the problem. By 6 p.m., most were back online, with outages down to just 200 in the city and 130 in the county. A frustrating domino effect, but power’s mostly restored—just another reminder of how fragile our grid can be. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.

Royce Martin's Swagtime Revolution | St. Louis News

Royce Martin drops Swagtime — a wild, genre-bending fusion of ragtime stride, bebop, and hip-hop rap, all played and produced by him at the keys. Blending Scott Joplin’s legacy with Charlie Parker’s jazz and Metro Boomin’s production, this new sound is his mission to resurrect St. Louis as a ragtime hub while injecting fresh, poetic energy into American music’s roots. A self-taught St. Louis native who played at the Scott Joplin House by 18 and scored for HBO and Hulu, Royce’s Swagtime is a bold reinvention — and he’s bringing it to life live at Blue Strawberry on July 25, 2026.
