Mindi Abair, who performs tonight at the Capitol Theatre, is a native of St. Petersburg. Publicity photo. One of only a handful of million-selling saxophone players who happen to be women, Mindi Abair is known for her bone-shaking, roots-rattling approach to jazz, giving it a tough, visceral edge – where few sax artists have dared to tread. She is truly one of a kind. Abair is our guest on today’s edition of the Arts Alive! podcast. It’s one of our occasional video interviews, done via Zoom, because the Grammy-nominated musician is perennially on the road. She and her band have been in Florida all week – she recorded this Zoom interview from her Jacksonville hotel. Abair’s relationship with the Tampa Bay area goes back a ways – she was actually born and raised in St. Petersburg, but spent years traveling with her musician father for gig to gig. She started playing saxophone while attending Northside Christian School, and was drum major during her junior and senior years. She graduated in 1987. Then came the jazz program at the University of North Florida, then the Berklee School of Music. Abair next journey to Los Angeles, where she became a session player, and the touring saxwoman for the Backstreet Boys, Aerosmith and many others, before launching her solo career. All of which brings us to tonight’s performance, a Christmas show with Abair and her band, at the Capitol Theatre in Clearwater. #mindiabair #stpetecatalyst #billdeyoung #artsalive #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

Nanette Wiser met Suzanne Elizabeth Murphy through her book designer, Pamela Joy Trow. Mirabelle and the Sea Green Bathtub is both written and illustrated by Suzanne, who is a fine artist and author. What started as an idea many years ago while scuba diving, Suzanne's book project was just awarded Creative Pinellas 2024-2025 Artist Grant. It is a magical, lyrical exploration underwater with Mirabelle who meets denizens of the deep, discovers the importance of coral and helps children (and adults) understand why are oceans matter and how to help conserve them. A Kansas City native, she took classes at the Kansas City Art Institute and worked as a fashion illustrator. She moved to New York City in 1976 where she studied theatrical costume, set and lighting at the Polakov Studio and Forum of Stage Design. Suzanne and her husband spent the next 11 years in Colorado, building and living in a 2500 sq. ft. strawbale house. There, Suzanne first began to paint on canvas. In 2007, Suzanne turned her artist’s eye to the riches of Florida. She now paints and exhibits at Open Sky Studio & Gallery which she founded in 2008 on the Gulf Coast. Until 2020, she taught painting classes and served on her town’s Public Art Committee, acquiring art to place outdoors. Her favorite art installation was a 6’4” bronze mermaid with a tail and legs that graces the banks of a bayou in a local historic park. Her most important project for the last two years has been her full color children’s book, Mirabelle and the Sea Green Bathtub, which she has authored and illustrated with her paintings on canvas. Deeply moved by her experiences as a scuba diver, she has seen for herself the fragile beauty of the coral reef below. Born under the water sign of Pisces, meaning “fish”, Suzanne now lives in her small town of Tarpon Springs, known for its Greek sponge divers and fishermen and where water as bayou, river, lake and gulf is everywhere.  www.suzanneelizabethmurphy.com. Her children’s book may be purchased at seagreenbathtub.com or from Suzanne at her studio and gallery, 907 Klosterman Road East, Tarpon Springs, Florida. #Open Sky Studio & Gallery #suzanneelizabethmurphy #oceanadventures #book #children'sbook #coralreefs #oceansustainability #marinelife #artist #pamelajoytrow #nanettewiser #saveourcoralreefs #creativepinellas   #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

The St. Pete Innovation District (SPID) was established as a public-private partnership in 2016. Today, membership exceeds 50 organizations within the Life Science, Marine Science, and Technology sectors, as well as those focused on Entrepreneurship and Education. Many of these institutions are within a designated boundary of the District, while others are engaged from throughout the region and nation. https://www.stpeteinnovationdistrict.com/ DECEMBER NEWS: Researchers studying the deep sea have access to a powerful new tool with the acquisition of a sophisticated, remotely operated vehicle (ROV) by USF's Florida Institute of Oceanography (FIO). Named Taurus, the ROV can reach depths of up to 2.5 miles, allowing for exploration of some of the most remote areas of the ocean and the potential discovery of new species. The vehicle can also capture and livestream 4k imagery, expanding educational opportunities and appreciation for the underwater environment. USF is the only university in the continental United States to own an ROV with such advanced capabilities, positioning it at the forefront of oceanographic research.  The ROV Taurus is being used in several different ways, from conducting new research in deep-sea environments to programs that train the next generation of marine scientists to public education initiatives.   #innovationdistrict #steam #stem #marinescience #noaa #research #lifescience #marinescience #technology #entrepreneurship #alisonbarlow #nanettewiser #downtownstpete  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

Welcome to Historically St Pete, a weekly conversation where Rui Farias explores the truths, and sometimes the myths of the people and events that created the Sunshine City.  Rui is the Executive Director of the St. Petersburg Museum of History SPMOH. The Museum of History has been sharing the stories of the Sunshine City for 102 years and we are happy to share those stories with you here on Radio St. Pete.   In today's episode, Rui's guest is former Evening Independent and St. Petersburg Times reporter, hiker, long distance runner and award-winning author, Jon Wilson. Jon co-authored Days of Fear, A Lynching in St. Petersburg. Says Rui: "1914 began as a massively exciting year for St Petersburg. On Jan. 1 at 10am, a young dashing pilot by the name of Tony Jannus lifted a Benoist airboat off the Central Yacht Basin, turned northeast and 24 minutes later completed the world’s first airline flight. Two months later, Al Lang and other members of the Board of Trade convinced the St. Louis Browns to come to St. Pete for Major League Spring Training, beginning a 100-year love affair with Major League Baseball on our waterfront. But in November, all that positive excitement that thrush the Sunshine City into the national spotlight, ended with one shotgun blast. On the evening of Nov. 10, 1914, professional photographer, turned developer Edward Franklin Sherman was murdered, and his wife Mary assaulted, in their St. Pete bungalow home. What followed, were the most horrific and embarrassing events in St. Pete history.  #ruifarias #jonwilson #historicallystpete #stpetersburgmuseumofhistory #author #spmoh #racialdiscrimination   #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

Living all over the U.S she was constantly seeking community and found diaspora Latinx wherever she traveled to. Her art is an ode to these diasporas that often feel unseen and whose narratives face erasure while longing for a connection to home.

Matthew Abernathy, artistic director of the 150-voice Master Chorale of Tampa Bay, is our guest today on the Arts Alive! podcast. Ostensibly, the occasion is to talk about both this weekend’s “Classical Christmas” concerts and next week’s “Holiday Pops” concerts, both in tandem with The Florida Orchestra. We do, indeed, take deep dives into the musical details of those two very different programs. Abernathy, in addition, speaks eloquently about the composition of the chorale, how programs are put together, and the organization’s frequent commissions of new works by modern composers. #masterchorale #floridaorchestra #matthewabernathy #choir #choral #stpetecatalyst #music #billdeyoung #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

In this episode, host and author LL Kirchner talks about her sequel to Florida Girls, part two of the Queenpin series, debuting at Tombolo Books 5th anniversary party 12/14 5:30 pm. (You can pre-order it on Amazon as well here https://www.amazon.com/Vegas-Girls-Novel-Queenpin-Chronicles/dp/B0DNNZBC1P) LAS VEGAS GIRLS: As the war was ending, everything changed. But for a few daring females, the stakes kept climbing. Will they win a life-or-death wager? Las Vegas, 1945. Thelma Miles is keeping score. Reeling from personal tragedy, the avenging widow wants payback. When the woman she's relying on for help pinning a crime on the mafia proves reluctant to sign on to her scheme, she's not afraid to twist a few arms. Kathleen Young could care less about the mob, but her family is being blackmailed. She longs to be by her recuperating husband's side. After reluctantly joining forces to end a ruthless gangster's rise to power, her initial qualms turn to stubborn resolve.  When their motives diverge, they could both wind up out on a limb... Exploring the depth and intensity of bonds forged in hardship, L.L. Kirchner weaves a fascinating tale of the perils of power, ambition, and clashing loyalties. Highlighting real-world facts with arresting fictional characters, this seamless blend of truth and imagination offers a transfixing look at the gams, glamor, and gangsters that fueled this Wild West mecca. Vegas Girls is the suspenseful second book in The Queenpin Chronicles historical fiction series. If you like twisty plots, intricately researched settings, and fast-moving action, then you'll love L.L. Kirchner's dark exploration of almost-postwar Sin City. #llkirchner #illbehavedwomen #vegasgirls #floridagirls #tombolobooks #author #historicalstpete    #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

In this episode of Florida Spectacular #182, hosts Cathy Salustri and Rick Kilby talk with  Chris Meindl, associate professor or geography and the director of the Florida Studies Program at USF-St. Pete  about his new book, Florida Springs: From Geography to Politics and Restoration. Cathy, Rick, and Chris talk about the springs, the Florida Studies Program, and the politics of water. See him at the Sulfur Springs Museum in Tampa: Jan. 12, 2 p.m. Florida Geological Survey: Florida Springs Water's Journey: The River Returns Fenholloway River Florida Swallets Florida Studies Program ABOUT THE BOOK Florida is home to over 1,000 freshwater springs, natural wonders that have drawn people to enjoy and interact with them over the course of millennia. This book provides a clear and comprehensive overview of the geography, history, science, and politics of the springs, informing readers about the deep past and current issues facing these treasures of the Florida landscape.   Christopher Meindl explains the unique physical features of Florida’s springs, including the “swiss cheese” structure of the state’s aquifers and the complexities of its groundwater hydrology, providing helpful maps, graphs, and photos. Meindl discusses how ancient and modern people have used the springs—as centers of communities, therapeutic spas, roadside attractions, parks, and more. He addresses contemporary threats to the springs in areas such as water flow, water quality, and overcrowding. Finally, he explores recent state policies, the activism of environmentalists, and current and potential restoration projects that seek to prevent springs degradation.  Meindl brings to light a struggle for truth among scientists, politicians, and businesspeople about the causes of problems the springs face today. Challenging oversimplified answers and looking at multiple hypotheses, Meindl raises intriguing questions that will inspire readers to join the ongoing discussion about how best to protect and restore Florida’s iconic freshwater sanctuaries.   Subscribe to The Florida Spectacular newsletter, and keep up with Cathy's travels at greatfloridaroadtrip.com.  Find her on social media: Facebook.com/SalustriCathy; Twitter/IG: @CathySalustri Question or comment?

Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life has got, as they say in the motion picture business, legs. Although the warm ‘n’ fuzzy Christmas season movie was not a critical or commercial success upon first release in 1947, repeated showings on television over subsequent decades caused it to grow, and grow, and grow on American audiences, who basked in its small-town charm, humor and easygoing morality. Its story of one man’s eventual understanding that he is loved, more loved than he’s ever realized, has resonated through subsequent generations. “It’s a Wonderful Life – A Live Radio Play.” Image: Stage Photography of Tampa. Such a key strand in in the fabric of Americana was bound to spawn imitators, tributes and adaptations. Among the latter is Joe Landry’s long-running It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play, a Tampa Repertory Theatre production of which is starting a three-weekend run tonight in the Shimberg Playhouse, inside the Straz Center for the Performing Arts complex. Today’s guests on Arts Alive! are both longtime local practitioners of the theatrical arts – Colleen Cherry (director) and Jeremy Douglass (foley artist – the live, onstage sound effects creator). For It’s a Wonderful Life – A Live Radio Play, Cherry and Douglass, both of whom are musicians, co-wrote the Tampa Bay-centric jingles the audience will hear in this specialized “live to radio” take on the Capra-corn classic.

Florida's Unique Education Learning Support, Inc FUELS serves as a resource for Florida educators with students who are being considered for or are already in the Exceptional Student Education (ESE) program.   Our educators are in desperate need of resources to meet the demands placed on them for their ESE students (both being considered for and already staffed) and their individualized learning plans (IEPs). Often these resources are in short supply or only provided if a teacher can fund them themselves; those that can’t afford to dip into their own pockets go without.  Our mission is to alleviate this financial burden, so educators can focus on what is most important: meeting the needs of their most vulnerable students. #stpetecatalyst #impactcatalyst #fuels #education #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

In this episode of Sounds of Healing, host Alvinette Downing sits down with the Arts in Medicine Program manager and musicians of Moffitt Cancer Center's extraordinary services, funded by the Moffitt Cancer Center Foundation. The program has been specially designed to offer patients and their caregivers a variety of opportunities to experience the therapeutic benefits of the arts during a challenging time. Recognizing that true well-being is best experienced with a combination of ‘healing’ via body, mind and spirit, the program was introduced two decades ago to expand and support Moffitt’s goal of meeting the needs of the whole person. Designed to inspire, comfort, encourage and empower, Arts In Medicine’s complete menu of services includes daily weekday access to the beautiful studio, private bedside visits, live musical lobby performance events. Simultaneously, the ‘Arts In Medicine experience’ may connect individuals, naturally creating a sense of community with other patients, survivors, caregivers and care providers. The program also supports staff and volunteers.  In accordance with the world-class level of care provided at Moffitt Cancer Center, our services are facilitated by a caring team of specially trained visual and musical artists-in-residence who are fully enrolled in Arts In Medicine’s mission of “Nurturing the spirit, Offering comfort and Inspiring hope through the Expressive Arts.”  Patients and caregivers can visit the studio, create a poem, request a bedside visit, adopt a healing origami crane, let your foot tap…your hand clap…or your heart dance to the rhythm of the music and discover how Arts In Medicine has become a valued part of the fabric of the patient-and-family-centered care experience at Moffitt Cancer Center. Also be sure to check out our  "Healing Arts Gallery," which features a revolving exhibit of patient artwork located on the first floor near Radiation Therapy.

Through May 4, 2025, The Dali features The Subversive Eye exhibit. Arts correspondent Margo Hammond talks with Peter Tush, Dali Museum’s Curator of Education, to talk about the current exhibit at the museum: The Subversive Eye: surrealist and experimental photography from the David Raymond collection.  Peter gave an overview of the exhibit,  which includes over 100 pieces by 50 photographers from all over the world and gave us the inside scoop on how Raymond collected these vintage photographs. Peter also talked about his three decades hosting Step Outside, his radio program that airs from 10 p.m-2 a.m. every Sunday on WMNF. Margo invited the audience to join her at a collage workshop at the Dali Museum on January 7 from 6-8. ABOUT THE EXHIBIT In 1935, Salvador Dalí called his paintings “color photography done by hand,” signaling the immense importance of photography as a Surrealist medium. Debuting in relation to the movement’s literary production, photography came to define a range of avant-garde practices around the world. In the hands of Surrealists and the experimental photographers they inspired, the camera became a mechanism for discovering visual poetry, and seeing the world in a new way. With a dizzying array of tactics, including multiple exposure, unusual perspectives, cropping, and solarization, Surrealists rapidly made the medium their own and their procedures radiated throughout Western and Eastern Europe, the Americas and Japan. In celebration of the centennial of the founding of Surrealism in 1924, this exhibition will feature 100+ works by 50 artists, highlighting the movement’s original aims in the medium of photography and its far-reaching influence. By exploring the capacities of the medium, it will highlight how artists have ultimately used photographic techniques to question the nature of seeing itself, delving deeply into the inner realm. Notable artists include Eileen Agar, Eugène Atget, Joseph Bartuska, Hans Bellmer, Brassaï, Manuel Alvarez-Bravo, Robert Capa, Georges Hugnet, Clarence John Laughlin, Dora Maar, Lee Miller, Lucia Moholy, Osamu Shiihara, Man Ray and Wols. Dora Maar will be represented by no less than eighteen rare vintage prints. Importantly, the exhibition will explore the numerous ties between Surrealist ideas and Eastern European, German and Japanese experimental practices. The exhibition is curated by William Jeffett, Sr. Curator at The Dalí Museum, with works on loan from artist and art collector David Raymond. Since 1985, Raymond has pushed the boundary of the definition of “the surreal,” working to expand the canon in his collecting practice. Beginning in 2007, when over 160 works gathered by Raymond became part of the collection of the Cleveland Museum of Art, he found his passion for collecting became even stronger. This will be the first exhibition in a decade to debut the fruits of his labor. Visitors may also become part of the artistic process in the interactive “photo studio” and learn how to recreate surrealist techniques featured in the exhibit on their smartphones. Additionally, the AI-powered Dream Tapestry experience offers the ability to transform a written dream into a one-of-a-kind image in the genre of black-and-white surrealist photography. #thedali #margohammond #museums #art #photography #petertush #surrealism #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

The Monday following Black Friday, known as Cyber Monday, is one of the top shopping days of the year. But of course, not all deals will be limited to Cyber Monday; many online shopping activities and special holiday sales started as early as Halloween and will continue throughout the holiday season.  But online shopping – even on Cyber Monday – has risks. Be wary of misleading advertisements, lookalike websites, and untrustworthy sellers. BBB has tips to help you shop online this holiday season to achieve maximum savings while protecting your personal information and hard-earned money. BBB Pro Tips for a successful Cyber Monday Beware of false advertising and phony websites. If a company sells the hottest item of the year at a price that seems too good to be true, it probably is. Watch out for false advertising and closely monitor the web address in your browser. Scammers love to create lookalike websites that, at first glance, appear to belong to a trusted retailer. Ensure that your site has the correct business name spelling, legitimate contact information and working customer service numbers.   Shop with trustworthy sellers on secure sites only. Be wary of businesses you aren't familiar with. Check their BBB Business Profile on BBB.org, review the rating, and read customer reviews. In addition, be sure any web page you purchase from is secure. Secure web addresses begin with "HTTPS, "not just "HTTP." Never put personal or credit card information in forms on non-secure web pages.  Keep your antivirus software up to date. Ensure you have antivirus software installed on your computer or mobile device and that it is current. This protection will help you avoid non-secure websites and pop-up phishing scams and help keep your personal information safe.  Price check before you buy. Dozens of online retailers will claim they have the best price on an item, but their offers can be misleading. Do your homework by comparing prices. Remember that the best deal may not be the real deal. Take advantage of rewards and loyalty programs. Check your credit card rewards program for special point offers that could add up on Cyber Monday and throughout the holidays. Make purchases using loyalty programs; many major retailers offer them. Use your credit card. It's always best to make online purchases with your credit card. If shady charges appear later, you can contest them through your credit card company. Debit cards usually don't offer this same protection. Never purchase with online sellers by giving them prepaid debit cards or wiring money. Understand return policies. Online store policies may change for Cyber Monday offers. Read the fine print before you buy. Understand the return or exchange policy for the item you want to purchase. Be aware that stores may not allow returns for "final sale" or "closeout" items. Be sure to get gift receipts so the recipient can return or exchange the item if necessary. Watch out for phishing scams. Busy schedules and increased purchases make it easier to miss – and fall victim to – a phishing scam. Look out for unsolicited emails, texts, calls, or letters. These messages may claim you have a gift waiting for you or that there is a problem with delivery – all you need to do is click on a link or give up your personal information. Avoid phishing scams by ignoring suspicious correspondence and calls from unfamiliar phone numbers. Look for the BBB Seal. It's the Sign of a Better Business. Shop with confidence and peace of mind, avoid scams, and make smart purchase decisions on Cyber Monday and this holiday season by choosing businesses that prioritize trust and ethics in the marketplace. BBB Accredited Businesses adhere to the BBB Standards and will display the BBB Seal.  #bbb #betterbusinessbureau #holidayshopping #cybermonday #bbbflorida #avoidscams #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete 

In this episode of Sunshine Sisters, Lynn Lotkowitcz interviews Jaime Mcknight, the one woman show Founder of 501c3 non profit, Pawlicious Poochie Pet Rescue.  Born and raised in St.Petersburg, The Sunshine City, she has dedicated her life and the last 14 years to rescuing the old, critically injured, handicap and hospice small dogs from kill shelters all over the state of Florida.  No fosters. Not grant or corporate funded. All efforts are grass roots with fundraising done through social media on FB, Instagram, TikTok and local appearances/events. Pawlicious Poochie Pet Rescue ( PPPR) the mission is simple saving the lives that others will not save due to cost, inability to be adopted due to health or long term care and the seniors.  The true under dog is who PPPR moves heaven and earth to save! PPPR's strong presence on social media has made this grass roots rescue a force to be reckoned with saving the most hopeless, getting the vet care desperately needed and finding amazing furever homes locally and out of state.  PPPR adopters fly and drive in from all over to adopt with most adopters returning to PPPR to adopt again and again.  Vet care is provided by Skyway Animal Hospital's beloved Dr. C performing life saving surgeries and around the clock critical care.  Each case costs the rescue $1500 to $6500 with the most expensive case to date costing the rescue $12,000 to save a little chihuahua critically injured in hit by car incident. PPPR has received countless community awards, features on local news stations and press for  work over the years saving thousands of dogs.

Today on Arts Alive!, say hello to Betty, Linoleum and Pickles, the three resident muses at the Armadillo Acres trailer park in North Florida. They are, in fact, singer/dancer/actors Susan Haldeman, Heather Krueger and Julia Rifino of the latest Stageworks Theatre production, The Great American Trailer Park Christmas Musical. It opens tonight at the venerable playhouse in Tampa’s Channelside District. Directed by Karla Hartley, it’s the sequel to last season’s big bona fide hit The Great American Trailer Park Musical – playwrights David Nehls and Betsy Kelso cleverly inserted the word “Christmas” to make a longer title. But be assured, this is no mere rehash. While Betty, Lin and Pickles remain the axis upon which the story turns, there are three new characters – Rufus, Darlene and Jackie – who help them turn tacky ‘ol Armadillo Acres into a Yuletide, comedy singing and dancing wonderland. That’s the plan, anyway. Image: Stage Photography of Tampa. Darlene is the park’s resident Christmas-hating Scrooge, and she tears down the girls’ beer-can decorations as quickly as they’re put up. When Darlene suffers a sudden, unexpected electrical jolt, Betty, Lin and Pickles use her subsequent bout of amnesia to convince her that it is, indeed, the most wonderful time of the year. And what could possibly go wrong?

Published 1 day ago on November 22, 2024 By Bill DeYoung Two of St. Pete’s finest songwriters and rock ‘n’ roll bandleaders are joining forces tonight at the Palladium Theater’s Side Door Cabaret. Ed Woltil is a local native who played in a number of the bay area’s key “new wave” bands of the 1980s and into the ’90; as a solo artist, he’s made a handful of perfectly-executed pop records, and has been a member of the ultra-musicianly Florida Bjorkestra since its inception. Kirk Adams arrived here from South Florida in the mid ‘90s, and remains one of the hardest-gigging players we’ve got. Adams is also an exemplary songwriter, whose high-energy shows are peppered with songs from his recorded catalogue. Big surprise, they’ve known each other for years. Woltil and Adams guest on this edition of Arts Alive! together, talking about their shared history, the musicians in their respective bands, and their views on the state of St. Petersburg live music since the storied Hideaway Café closed in 2022. #stpetecatalyst #billdeyoung #kirkadams #edwotil #stpetecatalyst #palladium #stete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

In this episode of Historically St. Pete, host Rui Farias -Executive Director of the St. Petersburg Museum of History - interviews Roger Barganier, a partner and the artistic genius behind Creative Arts Unlimited. Located in Pinellas County, Roger and his firm are regarded as one of the best museum exhibit creation teams in the nation. Museums today are fantastic teaching and entertainment tools that rely on themes and technology to share a message with the visitors. And the creation of a museum exhibit is final product of months, or years of research, design, writing, fabrication and a little luck. Learn how they have transformed museums, libraries, hospitals and more to magical, information and engaging wonderlands. Historically St Pete is a weekly conversation where we explore the truths, and possibly the myths of the people and events that created the Sunshine City. The Museum of History has been sharing the stories of the Sunshine City for 102 years and we are happy to share those stories with you here on Radio St. Pete. ***Listen to all Rui's fascinating interviews: https://audioboom.com/search/posts?q=%23ruifarias ***Visit the museum and check out events:  https://spmoh.com/ #creativeartslimited #ruifarias #stpetersburgmuseumofhistory #sunshinecity #historical museums #arts #culture #museumexhibits #design #rogerbarganier #pinellascounty #exhibitdesign #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

Voodoo Brewing Co. owner Bob Skepnek combines a decades-long passion for craft beer with his entrepreneurial drive.  As a resident of Lutz, Florida, Bob brings a unique background as an electronic design engineer and general manager, with over 30 years in the manufacturing industry, to his new venture at 220 4th St North in downtown St. Pete. He has been brewing his own beer since the 1980s and saw Voodoo Brewing as the perfect opportunity to make a career change when he and his wife relocated from Chicago to Florida...and he made sure that an authentic Chicago Bear slow roasted beef sandwich with sweet or hot peppers, topped with cheddar or mozzarella, is on the menu. Lots of tvs for sports, an arcade for gamers and a full bar open to the street make this a popular after-work hang-out. Sip the big brown ale or Belgian white; there are so many well-balanced brews and ciders to choose from. Especially delicious are the house smoked wings, beer mussels (chorizo and lime!)  and a garlic pesto pickle pizza with Voodoo's Voo-Dill seasoning. Check out the food menu, beer menu, and cocktail menu.  https://saintpetersburg.voodoobrewery.com/ #voodoobrewingco #nanettewiser #whatsbrewingtampabay #craftbeer #downtownstpete #BobSkepnek  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete #nanettewiser

Accidental First Lady author Kerry Kriseman consults on memoir writing, helps authors market their books and teaches workshops. Nanette Wiser caught up with her before the holidays to chat about how to share and make new memories, perhaps craft a holiday gift with a simple cookbook (recipes with a little story) or a family memory album (Shutterfly) that can inspire family to talk about their memories, and get to know each other again across the miles and smiles of the holiday table. Kerry also talked to the USF St. Pete campus newspaper staff (The Crow) about how good interview questions and researching people's histories can transform a good article into a great one! Kerry has been busy this fall, and appeared at the St. Pete Beach Library Author Showcase and the  Louisville Book Festival. "I enjoyed serving on a panel with 4 memoirists, met Hank the Horse, and enjoyed chatting with authors and readers. I love talking memoir, and the panel format allowed each of us to share our varied paths to memoir, what inspired us to write, and how we navigated the emotions and often-winding path to publication.

Eric Davis and Matthew McGee took some time away from playing Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson at freeFall Theatre to sit down and chat for the Arts Alive! podcast. The show is Ken Ludwig’s Moriarty: A New Sherlock Holmes Adventure, and it’s onstage through Dec. 15. Moriarty – let’s use the shorthand – is the followup to 2023’s Baskerville, one of the most successful shows in recent freeFall history. So when Ludwig created another comedic adaptation of the works of Arthur Conan Doyle, the theater’s powers-that-be leapt at the opportunity to, as somebody said in The Blues Brothers, get the band back together. Davis, as freeFall’s founding artistic director, is the power-that-be. McGee is the Director of Marketing and Communications, and together they had seen and understood that audiences loved what they’d done with Baskerville. As with its predecessor, Moriarty has a small cast – alongside Davis and McGee as the ever-intrepid detective and his sidekick, three actors – in this case, Kelly Pekar, Robert Teasdale and Sara Del Beato – play everybody else. A total of 40 characters between them. It’s frantic, frenetic and fast-paced, and it’s very funny. The two actors talk about how it was all assembled, costumes, cast chemistry and the rehearsal process (hint: a lot of laughs), as well as the theater’s ongoing Tandem Series and the plays to come in the New Year. #artsalive #stpetecatalyst #billdeyoung #EricDavis and #MatthewMcGee

In this episode of Historically St. Pete, Rui Farias the Executive Director of the St. Petersburg Museum of History continues to share his stories of the Sunshine City for 102 years and we are happy to share those stories with you here on Radio St. Pete.  His guest is David Anderson, whose family has long ties to Sacred Lands. David Anderson’s family have owned land on that site since his grandfather Harold “Happy” Anderson purchased the 3-acres in 1940. But it has been David who has worked to maintain the site and open Sacred Lands to the public. Learn more: DiscoverFloridaTours.com For decades, visitors and residents driving along Park Street in West St. Pete have a passed some version of a historical marker or sign declaring that Spanish explorer Panfilo de Narvaez came ashore on that spot with about 300 of his men and began what is to be known as first European inland expedition of what is to become the United States.  Now, there has been some spirited debates on whether or not Narvaez landed on that spot now known as the Jungle Prada area. After all, it is rumored that was landowner Walter Fuller who placed the first sign to sell valuable historic land, but we do know this location’s history extends well beyond the arrival of the Spanish. And of course, let’s not forget its checked, yet spirited history from the early 20th Century. #davidanderson #sacredlands #indigeniouspeoplesmonth #jungleprada #ruifarias #historicallystpete #stpetersburgmuseumofhistory #downtownstpete   #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete 

RadioStPete.com host Nanette Wiser thinks good ideas are Fred Forsley's superpower. Fred Forsley didn’t set out to become the Beer King of Maine. It just sort of happened that way. Forsley is the co-founder and president of Shipyard Brewing, the largest craft brewery in the state – and one of the most successful in New England. If you’ve enjoyed Pumpkinhead Ale, Monkey Fist or Island Time IPA, SunFish or Sea Dog Blueberry – all available here in the Sunshine State – you have Fred Forsley to thank. Shipyard is also the parent company of Sea Dog Brewing, and the Treasure Island Sea Dog Brew Pub celebrated it's 8th anniversary on Halloween. Follow them here: https://www.facebook.com/seadogtreasureisland Forsley is, by his own admission, a beer fan, a beer drinker and a sociable guy (he’s also a pretty shrewd businessman). Twenty-seven years ago, however, he was a real estate developer looking at a vacant property in Kennebunk Harbor (yes, it’s just down the rustic road from the Bush compound). The tenant had pulled out, and Forsley was stuck with the place. While he pondered this, he traveled to Florida to visit his brother. They stopped into a Pensacola craft brew pub called McGuire’s – and Forsley found he just couldn’t get enough of that small-brew stuff. “I said ‘Jeez, this would work in Kennebunk,’” he recalls. “If the product is this good, other people are going to love it.’” Soon his own brew pub, Federal Jack’s, was doing turn-away business. With business partner Alan Pugsley, a biochemist and dedicated master brewer, Forsley opened Shipyard Brewing, in the city of Portland, in 1992. The rest is restaurant and craft brew history. In 2002, Forsley and Pugsley rescued Sea Dog Brewing Company – a smaller Maine brewery – from bankruptcy.  His portfolio of companies grew to include Ice Pik Vodka, Capt. Eli's Sodas and more to come. Today, Sea Dog family-friendly pub-restaurants are award-winning for their craft brews and outstanding food...and in both Maine and here in Treasure Island, Forsley is a leader in giving back to the community, sponsoring events (Skyway Bridge sprint runfest) and helping non-profit organizations from his alma mater UNH to Tampa Bay Beaches Chamber's recovery resources for members and hospitality workers. #fredforsley #seadogbrewing #shipyardbrewing #icepikvodka #restaurants #craftbeer #captelisodas #gooddeeds #entrepreneurs #brewpubs #treasureisland  #nanettewiser   #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

In this episode of ILL BEHAVED WOMEN, author/podcast host LL Kirchner talks about progress and setbacks for women going forward, and the road ahead. Her new book Vegas Girls, is available for pre-order now through Tombolo Books.  Says Kirchner: "History isn't always a straight line toward progress. Sometimes it's two steps forward, fifty years back. But I’m here to tell you that this election was not all bad news—keep reading! I’ve also been obsessed with the horrific situation for women in Iran and Afghanistan, a TV show, and, well, my own forthcoming book. All of which I share as—I hope— powerful reminders of why our fight matters more than ever. Because now is not the time to look away."  READ THE BLOG https://open.substack.com/pub/llkirchner/p/women-in-politics-2024-progress-setbacks?r=39szf&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email

The 2024 hurricane season was not kind to Jenee Priebe. The director of the SHINE St. Petersburg Mural Festival (that’s its full name) had meticulously crafted a schedule of artists and events for the 10th annual celebration of public art, which has become one of the city’s biggest draws. Yes, they come for far and wide to wander the downtown streets and gaze at one brilliant mural after another. And during SHINE week, when the artists are here and high up on their hydraulic lifts, spectators get to watch real-time creation. All of this takes a lot of emailing, calling, cross-referencing and planning, and SHINE, under Priebe’s watch, has always operated like a well-oiled machine. On today’s Arts Alive! podcast, the ever-sunny and optimistic Priebe describes picking up the pieces after Helene and Milton blew away SHINE ‘24’s original dates in early October. The rescheduled mural festival begins today, and continues through Nov. 17. The whiz-bang SHINE Celebration happens Saturday at FloridaRAMA. It wasn’t easy, but every artist was able, more or less, to make the new dates.  #shine #shinemuralfestival #artsalliance #stpetecatalyst #artsalive #billdeyoung #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

In this episode previewing musicians appearing at The Suncoast Jazz Festival,  host Nanette Wiser interviews the legendary Jason Marsalis.  You'll get good vibes when  Jason Marsalis performs at the 34th Annual Suncoast Jazz Festival Nov. 22-24 at Sheraton Sand Key, Clearwater.  With 7+ years at Suncoast Jazz Festival, Jason enjoys catching up with fellow musicians backstage and the dedicated jazz fans who show up year after year. This year, Jason will perform with Alberto Pibiri, Don Mopsick and Eddie Metz both Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  Asked about a set list, he laughs and says “We’ll do some Lionel Hampton with my modern interpretation and some of my originals as well.  TICKETS: https://suncoastjazzfestival.com/event-information Jason Marsalis is an American jazz drummer, vibraphone player, composer, producer, band leader, and member of the Marsalis family of musicians that includes Wynton and Branford Marsalis. He is the youngest son of Dolores Ferdinand Marsalis and the late Ellis Marsalis, Jr. Says Jason about his family legacy and honoring his musical journey: “If you don't know your history, you can't create a lasting future.’ A river of jazz music runs deep in the Marsalis family. Born in 1977, his parents gave Jason a toy drum set at age three. Jason recalls his parents saying when he played, “Ladies and gentlemen, introducing the fabulous Jason.” The prodigy took drum lessons at age six from legendary New Orleans drummer James Black, and at seven, started playing occasionally in his father’s band. He kept drumming but also played the violin and piano until his dad suggested taking up the vibraphone. “My brother Branford told me that the violin really helped me in terms of understanding, harmony and melody, and that most good percussionists play another instrument, usually guitar or piano,” says Jason. While attending Loyola University, Jason drummed in Latin-jazz and funk bands and in 1995 he played with pianist Marcus Roberts, a former trumpeter in his brother Wynton Marsalis’s band. His fame grew and by 2000, Jason was touring as a drummer with Roberts while performing on vibraphone around NOLA. Jason is still a sought after drummer but his reputation as a vibraphonist grew when he performed with the vibe-centric Lionel Hampton Orchestra.  Last year, Jason also led a workshop with members of the Tarpon Springs High School jazz band and told funny stories about the history of some of the songs in his repertoire, demonstrating his encyclopedic knowledge of jazz. Like his father,  Jason is  a passionate educator and advocate for keeping music programs in public schools and he taught recently at UCF.  Jason is a regular performer at the prestigious New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, and his work always appears on their CD compilation. https://www.munck-music.com/products/jason-marsalis-with-warren-wolf-live-at-2023-new-orleans-jazz-heritage-festival  Just recently, he recorded as a drummer on two CDs but his vibe discography is extensive and impressive.  He’s got two upcoming gigs in addition to Suncoast Jazz, “then I’m taking a break during the holidays, but when I’m home in NOLA, I like to play the Bayou Bar at the Pontchartrain Hotel.” #jasonmarsalis #jazz #vibraphone #music #suncoastjazzfestival #clearwater #sheratonsandkey  #neworleands  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete  #nanettewiser

In this episode of Historically St. Pete, St. Petersburg Museum of History executive director talks with Gwendolyn Reese, president and chief executive officer of Peaten Reese Peaten Consulting, and president of the African American Heritage Association of St. Petersburg in Florida.  She has worked hard to make sure that history, and the successes of the early African American population will not be forgotten.  She has dedicated more than 30 years of her career to working with organizations focused on social justice, equity, and anti-racism, and is known for her nonprofit leadership work within the region. Impacted deeply as a child by racist policy and Jim Crow laws, Ms. Reese remembers questioning and rebelling against racist structures from a young age. Says Rui: "It is no secret that the early years of St. Petersburg were not easy the city’s African American population. Racism, segregation, Jim Crow laws, white-only elections, and even those loved green benches were a flashpoint. For a town built by northern transplants, it was incredibly in the deep south.  Black neighborhoods were formed, and even thrived, and over the years, the city, we want to believe, has become more inclusive."

News Director Nanette Wiser swoons everytime she sees what Nancy Niss is wearing or designing, from bedazzled shoes she makes herself (ripping apart sandals and creating fab fabric with beading on the base) or a bespoke jacket. She is a Master Tailor and Designer who has sewn professionally for 58 years, custom work only along with alterations, for women and she used to design and make furniture.  Just recently, she posted this video about a mysterious vintage wool coat, with fur collar, that was obtained through the New York Metropolitan Opera auction, a coat designed and commissioned by Salvador Dali as a sample coat, said to be 1 of 3 made. This video shows the sewing process of restoring this coat to its original condition. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=my3_v8uMxAw Seen in this photo in Nancy's own words:  "This is my newest commission piece for a wonderful client. The fabric is a cotton from the Marcy Tilton fabric collection and the pattern inspiration is also Marcy Tilton, Vogue 8934, with pocket, collar, and sleeve changes. Because of uneven color and size placing of squares, I needed to cut out each piece separately so I could control placement of colors and squares. The contrast accents are silk strips I'd made for another fabulous past project of hers. When working with a lot of different colors and pattern, one must be careful not to have elements get lost in a visual confusion, so the eye may flow along the lines of the garment." WOW! This multi-talented artist  wrote and illustrated a fantasy novel, "The Sand Gates", available in the Manatee County library and on Amazon. She also made a hand-bound edition of the book. She lived in South America, is fluent in Portuguese and has done translating and interpreting for prestigious meetings and events, even the Pan Am Games.  Learn More: www.linkedin.com/in/nancy-niss-b9a90711 Contact Nancy Niss:  https://www.facebook.com/nancyniss.artdesign/ #nancyniss #artist #writer #fashion #sewing #nanettewiser #design    #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

Nate Najar was already a leading figure in Tampa Bay jazz when he met Daniela Soledade six years ago. Since then, the St. Petersburg-born guitarist and the Brazilian singer/songwriter have been inseparable, both onstage and off, and their musical collaborations – both as a duo and with a band – have raised the bar, locally, on multiple levels. Nate and Daniela recently returned from performances in Paris, and the U.K.’s Isle of Wight, where their sinewy and seductive bossa nova – both the Brazilian classics and their own compositions – won thousands of new fans. Their one-on-one show is called Love & Bossa Nova, and it’s onstage tonight (6:30 p.m.) at Seven C Music, 535 22nd Street S. The dynamic duo guest on today’s Arts Alive! podcast, talking about their illustrious histories – from Rio to St. Pete – their relationship, and what their music means to them. Naturally, the program begins with a song. #stpetecatalyist #billdeyoung #natenajar #danielasoledade #artsalive #tampabay #radio #radiostpete #7CMusic

Nanette Wiser's interview with Chaim Freiberg showcases a world-reknown artist who is an author and historian, digging deep into his early years in Israel and the legacy of Henrietta Szold, founder of Hadassah Women Organization.  He told Northeast Journal in 2023 about Lily Flowers Finds Love (and Other Tales of Passion), published by St. Petersburg Press, "operatic stories are filled with melodrama, romance, and adventure. Chaim Freiberg’s latest book, last year, has all those qualities, but with a twist: these opera fantasy stories all take place in now-shuttered opera houses. 'The stories are all inspired by real people, real places, and real opera houses that are no more,” said Freiberg, who has given several talks on his book at Studio@620.  At these events he invokes some of the mysterious people, places, and opera houses that stirred him to divine these legends. “I also bring in music,” says Freiberg, “to share the emotion and passion behind the stories.'"  His previous book, Ms. Flora & the Squirrel: And Other Tales of Friendship and Gratitude," can also be purchased on Amazon. Musician, pianist and award winning teacher Chaim Freiberg move to St. Pete five years ago and fell love with the city. He composes beautiful children's books with special lessons and will be part of an author showcase Nov. 4 4-6pm at the St. Pete Beach Library.

 In this episode of Live Life Better, host Nanette Wiser explores the relation between scent and cognition, and how losing your sense of smell may signal issues in the brain and may be an early detection marker for Alzheimers. Olfactory training may help as part of treatment for depression as well. New research studies are learing more about the link.  The sense of smell declines with age, and loss of olfactory function is also an early symptom of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. While previous research found the sense of smell was associated with brain volume and function, no studies had examined longitudinal changes within an individual across the whole brain and by cognitive status. #livelifebetter #health #aging #cognition+smell #olfactoryfunctions #alzheimer #parkinson #nanettewiser  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete 

Tuesday in St. Pete, three single parents became first-time homeowners thanks to Habitat for Humanity Tampa Bay Gulfside, but when they arrived at their new homes, they were shocked to find Bucs legend Warrick Dunn in the driveway, delivering a life-changing surprise in the form of a $5,000 down-payment assistance check and $10,000 worth of furnishings from Aaron’s!         While Warrick Dunn Charities (WDC) and Aaron’s frequently deliver dual surprises, this marks the first time in over a decade they have delighted THREE families on the same day. The events brought the running total to 232 home celebration nationwide – with 61 in the Tampa Bay area – by Warrick Dunn Charities (WDC), the former NFL star’s non-profit organization that identifies single parents across the country and helps them achieve their goal of first-time homeownership as part of its “Homes for the Holidays” program. While the new homes are earned and financed through Habitat for Humanity, Aaron’s provides $10,000 worth of home furnishings, turning an empty shell into a move-in ready dream home on day one. Additionally, WDC gifts a $5,000 down-payment assistance check and ensures the home is fully stocked, with support provided by Ryan Jumonville. #habitatpwp #WDC #warrickdunn #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

Radio Theatre Project begins its fall season Monday (Oct. 28) at The Studio@620. Today’s guests on the Arts Alive! podcast are company director Bonnie Agan and playwright/performer and educator James Rayfield, a longtime contributor to the performance series. Radio Theatre shows are performed live, in front of an audience, like old-time radio programs. Actors stand at a line of microphones and “become” the characters in three short plays – in the case of Monday’s marquee, they’re all Halloween-centric, of the funny-scary variety. Unlike traditional old-school “theater of the mind,” however, these are not radio scripts from the 1940s or ‘50s, but contemporary works, written specifically for present-day radio theater. Radio Theatre project shows at The Studio almost always sell out; it’s an audience that began as a seedling back in 2009, and has grown with each passing season. According to Agan, many people come to watch “foley” man Matt Cowley produced each play’s myriad sound effects live, using various tools from his ever-handy table of goodies. Tickets for Monday’s 7 p.m. performance will be available at the door. The Studio@620 website. #radiotheatre #studio@620 #artsalive #stpetecatalyst #billdeyoung #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

(10/24/2025) Nanette Wiser interviewed journalist/film director Dana Flor on the new Ani DiFranco Film,  cinematic musical road trip through the life this groundbreaking feminist icon and punk-rock legend. The film is showing at Green Light Cinema October 25 and October 30. 1-800-ON-HER-OWN follows groundbreaking indie musician/feminist Ani DiFranco, founder of the first “woman-run non-corporate queer-happy” label, Righteous Babe Records, on a wild road trip from her punk-folk past to her life today as an activist and rock star. Throughout, Ani remains resolutely true to herself, no matter the cost. DANA FLOR is a documentary director, producer, and writer based in Washington D.C. Flor co-directed and produced the film Check It, a feature-length documentary about a black gay street gang in DC, which premiered at Tribeca, as well as The Nine Lives of Marion Barry, a feature-length documentary about the notorious mayor, which appeared on HBO. She also wrote and directed the Emmy award-winning documentary Latinos in Beisbol and the Emmy-nominated documentary Cesar Chavez for NBC.   She began her career as a news reporter and producer, working on a wide range of stories for Reuters Television, CNN, BBC, National Geographic, and others, covering breaking news in Latin America and around the world. Flor is a recipient of a Tribeca Film Institute Documentary Fund Grant, the DC Arts and Humanities Artist Fellowship, a Pare Lorenz Fund Grant, and a AFI Docs/NBC Universal Impact Grant. She also won an Influence Film Award from the Tribeca Documentary Fund.    ANI DiFRANCO Widely considered a feminist icon, Grammy winner Ani DiFranco is the mother of the DIY movement, being one of the first artists to create her own record label in 1990. While she has been known as the “Little Folksinger,” her music has embraced punk, funk, hip hop, jazz, soul, electronica and even more distant sounds. Her collaborators have included everyone from Utah Phillips to legendary R&B saxophonist Maceo Parker to Prince. Her most recent album is the June 2023 25th Anniversary Edition reissue of her seminal album Little Plastic Castle on Righteous Babe Records.  Her memoir No Walls and the Recurring Dream was a New York Times Top 10 best seller in 2019, and her debut children’s book The Knowing is out now. DiFranco is currently starring on Broadway as ‘Persephone’ in the Tony and Grammy Award-winning Best Musical, Hadestown. Her 23rd album Unprecedented Sh!t is set to be released May 17, 2024, and a second children’s book Show Up and Vote will be released August 27th. ON TOUR Ani will launch a new tour in January 2025, with stops in Orlando and downtown St. Pete March 9 at Jannus Landing. #danaflor #anidifranco #1800onherown #greenlightcinema #punkrock #musicaldocumentary #hobbyfilms #righteousbaberecords #music #womenrock #feministicon #lgbtq+  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete #nanettewiser #NJnovdec2024

Airs Tuesdays on 96.7 FM RadioStPete.com THE EDGE Downtown St. Pete's vibrant neighborhood is popular with visitors and locals, thanks to unique boutiques, shops and festivals, including the upcoming Halloween on Central.

(Posted 10/21) In this episode of ILL BEHAVED WOMEN, author/podcaster LL Kirchner tackles the guity pleasure of reality TV real estate shows, riffs on the presidential race and praises women who are bold, not humble. NOTABLE QUOTE "...Kamala’s words pulled it all together, because the opposite of humility is not to be full of oneself, but to be bold. What is seeking the world’s most powerful job if not bold? And that is the whole point of this podcast." WORTH READING: "During Milton we absconded to Gainesville, where I took advantage of the chance to check out The Lynx bookstore. Queering the Redneck Riviera is part of my research for Havana Girls, the third book of The Queenpin Chronicles. A deep look at the postwar visibility of gay life and attendant moral panics, it will inform the experiences of Helen, Doris and Archie. I want to be sure the conclusion to the journey that began in book one, Florida Girls, is a good representation of lived experiences. I’m also curious to see what I learn about the state’s other promotional shenanigans in Selling Vero Beach. (Wait, was that title purchase what prompted “Selling Sunset”—8 seasons in—to suddenly appear on my Netflix feed???) Anyway, I can’t wait to read it and discover new fun stories to weave into book three. And finally, Say Hello To My Little Friend was recommended when I told a staffer at the store that I was looking for anecdotes about the Trafficantes in Miami and Cuba. It’s for the talk I’m giving next month at the Key West Historical Society—Florida Hustlers, Blue Bloods and Dreamers: The Rise of the Sunshine State Mafia—which is already researched and written but I’m always looking for more fun facts. Ill-Behaved Women is a newsletter, community space, and podcast celebrating women who have made and who are making history. Because history is already littered with the untold stories of women. L.L. Kirchner is a podcast host, a voracious reader, unabashed feminist, fangirl, novelist, and author of a lot of stories about women (including my own in the form of two memoirs). "Between you and me, it’s a vehicle for exploring the issues that have faced women for years," says Kirchner. But what is ill-behaved? Because this is my space, I get to define it. I sure as hell don’t want other people to defining it for me. It’s a regular check-in about unforgettable women you may or may not have heard of, in the news, in books, in history, and in must-watch big and small screen moments. For more on LL Kirchner: https://llkirchner.com/ Her most recent book, Florida Girls, is a romp back in time with a troupe of swimsuit models on a war bond tour who take on the Florida Mafia. It's part of the Queenpin Chronicles, with Las Vegas Girls debuting in January 2025, followed by Havana Girls. #llkirchner #floridagirls #queenpinchronicles #lasvegasgirls #havanagirls #author #podcast #illbehavedwomen #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete #NJnovdec2024

St. Petersburg City Theatre is the oldest continually operating community theater in Florida. In 2025, it will celebrate its 100th anniversary. It very nearly didn’t make it. As Board Vice President Lisa Marone explains on today’s Arts Alive! podcast, the mighty winds of Hurricane Milton peeled open the roof on the theater building at 4025 31st Street S. and let in a lot of rain. Copious amounts of rain. This resulted in several of the concrete-block structure’s rooms taking on water, with collapsed ceilings and warped furniture. The stage got very wet, too. The roof was barely five years old. It’s just the latest challenge for the nonprofit, community-based group, which in 2017 nearly shut down because of financial hardships. Through fundraising and other grassroots forms of community support, that crisis was averted, and other repairs to the now 66-year-year-old building were instigated. READ MORE: Vintage St. Pete: St. Petersburg Little Theatre The show, of course, must go on, and Marone explains that the young people’s theater show Macabre Cabaret will be performed in the (unaffected) theater lobby, and December productions of White Christmas and a staged reading of A Christmas Carol remain in the plans. Meanwhile, damage assessment continues, and volunteers are being sought for Cleanup Day, Saturday 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Marone also discusses her family’s Pass-a-Grille home, which was inundated with storm surge during Hurricane Helene. #stpetecatalyst #stpetecitytheatre #billdeyoung ##lisamarone #tampabay #radio #artsalive #radiostpete

If you like Latin music, you will love Diego Figuerado’s new album, I Love Samba from Clearwater-based Arbor Records (where Ken Peplowski, also a featured performer at Suncoast Jazz Festival also records). His previous album, My World spent much of 2023 on the JazzWeek chart and was one of the top 30 jazz albums in U.S. airplay.  Diego is excited to return to St. Pete and Clearwater. “This is my third time at this wonderful festival and will perform some of my new album originals as well as performing with other musicians from all over the U.S. including Ken,” he says on the road from his West Coast tour.  “ Ken and I have an album and we’ve toured together for 10 years.  Diego Figueiredo was born in Franca, Brazil, in 1980, and at the age of 4, he used to strike poses carrying his small guitar. At six, he got a mandolin, which was kept in a very special place in his house. Diego played many instruments before choosing the electric guitar when he was twelve, playing in theaters and local pubs, revealing the great art of improvising and harmonizing. At 15, he conquered theaters and nightclubs in many different Brazilian states, playing solo or with renowned musicians. Besides being a guitar player, Diego is a producer, arranger, orchestrator, and multi-instrumentalist and his exceptional technique has twice earned him awards at the Montreux Jazz Festival as one of the greatest guitarists in the world. Diego has collaborated and performed with names like Gilberto Gil, João Bosco, Roberto Menescal, Toquinho,  Janis Siegel, Stanley Jordan,  Joao Donato, Larry Coryell, Ken Peplowski, Lewis Nash, John Clayton, Cyrille Aimée, Jeff Hamilton, Terell Stafford, Wycliffe Gordon, Bill Cunliffe, Dick Hyman and many others.  With 28 CDs, 3 DVDs and a book, this newest album is his pride and joy. Diego says I Love Samba is an homage to early mentor Haroldo Garcia, a doctor who lived 40 miles away and taught him  the Brazilian right hand technique and elements of jazz chord structures at age 13. “He was my hero, and the guy opened my mind to jazz, Brazilian music and classical music at the same time, because he mixed all that styles.” Another influence was the Bob Dylan of Brazil, the famous singer Belchior, who he accompanied on the road.   From walks in Manhattan to the beaches of Ipanema and inspirations from nature, the trio on I Love Samba mix African Soul, bossa nova, samba and other Brazilian musical styles. He’s joined on his album of original compositions by bassist Nislon Matta, drummer Duduka Da Fonseca, guitarist Romero Lubambo and a solo by flutist Itai Kriss. At the Suncoast Jazz Festival, Diego will perform with various musicians during the weekend, including Ken Peplowski.   The world and travel inspire Diego. “I composed the song Manhattan, the night before of the recording at 1 am when I was looking for a pizza place or some something to eat. I get a lot of inspirations from nature and the rhythm and distinctive drum patterns from northeastern Brazil. My goal when on stage or the studio is to create something spontaneous, and that’s what makes my concerts fun.”  In addition to the Suncoast Festival, Diego will perform this fall in New Orleans and Orlando as well as Holland America cruiseships.  One of his favorite places to play is The Palladium at The Side Door in downtown St. Pete. “I love the audience and Paul Wilborn has been a huge supporter from the beginning.”  Suncoast Jazz Festival Nov. 20-22  https://suncoastjazzfestival.com/  #diegofiguerado #nanettewiser #jazz #jazzguitarist #suncoastjazzfestival #NJnovdec2024 #radiostpete #brazilianmusic

How about this for street cred: As double bassist for the London Symphony Orchestra, Michael Francis performed on the soundtracks of several films in the Star Wars series. As if that weren’t cool enough, Francis has just begun his 10th season as musical director and principal conductor of The Florida Orchestra. Year 57 for the orchestra begins Saturday and Sunday at Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater, with a concert centered around Ravel’s fiery Bolero. The Tampa Bay Master Chorale is part of the weekend program, which also includes De Falla’s Nights in the Gardens of Spain, Chabrier’s España, Villa-Lobos’ Choros No. 10 and Borodin’s Polovtsian Dances. On today’s Arts Alive! podcast, Francis discusses his classical and pops programming choices for the new season, the specifics of the conductor’s role in orchestral performances, and his unwavering belief that powerful music, impeccably played, can work as a temporary salve for a community that’s hurting. The Florida Orchestra has partnered with Habitat for Humanity Tampa Bay Gulfside to collect hurricane relief supplies (specifically cleaning and safety items) at each of this weekend’s concerts. Here’s the list of what they’re looking for.  #TFO #Floridaorchestra #michaelfrancis #artsalive #billdeyoung #stpetecatalyst #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

David S. Yeager on the Science of Inspiring Young Minds  In this powerful episode of Passion Struck, host John R. Miles sits down with Dr. David S. Yeager, a distinguished professor of psychology at the University of Texas at Austin, to explore the cutting-edge research behind his book, 10 to 25: The Science of Motivating Young People: A Groundbreaking Approach to Leading the Next Generation—And Making Your Own Life Easier. Dr. Yeager, who has collaborated with notable psychologists like Carol Dweck and Angela Duckworth, offers an in-depth look at how adults can inspire and lead adolescents through their most formative years with ease and effectiveness.  Drawing from his extensive research on adolescence, Dr. Yeager explores the critical developmental stage from ages 10 to 25, where the brain is especially sensitive to social status and respect. He introduces the concept of the “mentor mindset,” explaining how adults can effectively communicate with and guide young people by recognizing their unique needs for social connection, support, and growth. Listeners will uncover the profound impact of adopting a growth mindset—an approach that empowers young people to see challenges as opportunities for development, rather than barriers to success. Dr. David S. Yeager also delves into the rise of mental health challenges in adolescents, highlighting the powerful role adults play in shaping environments that foster resilience, confidence, and a sense of purpose. This episode not only offers valuable insights for educators, parents, and mentors but also provides actionable takeaways for anyone invested in nurturing the potential of the next generation. By understanding the science behind motivation and creating supportive contexts, we can unlock a brighter future for young people everywhere.

He and host Nanette Wiser discussed hurricanes that affected Tampa Bay, the devastation along Gulf Beaches and Gulfport and how the landscape will never look the same when rebuild.  Civitan Beach House (posted on FB) "It is with much sadness and a heavy heart that I must inform you that due to the storm surge from Hurricane Helene, the Civitan Beach House is a total loss.  The Civitan Beach House was first constructed in 1937 and had seen its share of storms over its 87 years. This is one it just could not survive.  The devastation up and down Gulf Blvd is unbelievable. "

As executive director of the Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art, Christine Renc-Carter oversees one of the most impressive collections of modern and contemporary art in Florida. Leepa-Rattner, located on the Tarpon Springs campus of St. Petersburg College, is fully accredited by the American Alliance of Museums, a distinction held by something like 3 percent of all museums in the country. On today’s Arts Alive! podcast, Renc-Carter discusses the life and works of famed abstract expressionist Allen Leepa, who retired to North Pinellas and donated the majority of his archives to the museum, which debuted in 2002. Leepa’s stepfather was watercolorist and impressionist Abraham Rattner, a contemporary of Picasso and Dali, and the Leepa donation included a substantial amount of original Rattner works, along with his personal archives. The Leepa-Rattner Museum of Art. Photo provided. There are more than 6,000 works in the museum’s collection, including Pablo Picasso, Marc Chagall, Fernand Léger, Henry Moore and contemporary Florida artists and fine craftsmen. The Leepa-Rattner Museum is also home to the only full-sized reproduction of Picasso’s masterpiece Guernica, fully endorsed by the Picasso estate. A Pinellas County native, Renc-Carter is the daughter of artist parents – and she herself has a series of mixed-media installations now on view in the Florida CraftArt gallery (St. Petersburg), as part of the exhibition Layered Narratives. #stpetecatalyst #billdeyoung #artsalive #leepa-Rattnermuseum #tarponsprings #tarponarts  Click to comment

In this episode of LIVE LIFE BETTER, RadioStPete.com host Nanette Wiser digs into the issue of hair loss, its causes and treatments for men and women during September's Alopecia Areata Awareness Month.  We asked an expert,  Simone Durant - the owner and operator of The Hair Dive: Hair Replacement and Restoration Center who has first-hand experience with alopecia. "At The Hair Dive, men and women who are facing hair loss & thinning are guaranteed a personalized and customized approach to their challenges. Together, we can revitalize their confidence and achieve real, long-term hair restoration solutions," says Durant, who is also actively involved in working with veterans and several VA hospitals to help with hair loss due to injury or PTSD. https://www.thehairdive.com/veterans There are various reasons you could be losing your hair -genetics, certain illnesses or conditions, hormonal changes, medications, and stress are among many factors that can cause this issue, known clinically as alopecia. For women, hair loss can occur because of chemicals hair products, hair styles, nutritional deficiences, hormonal changes during menopause, stress, chemotherapy, even bariatric surgery.  Most hair loss in men is caused by androgenetic alopecia or male pattern hair loss. This type is genetic—passed from parent to child—and progresses gradually and is linked to the activity of the androgen receptor (AR) gene, up to 50% of male adults experience some form of this by age 50. Diet, stress, aging, smoking and nutrition are also contributing factors.  Learn more at https://www.thehairdive.com located at 6920 22nd Ave N Suite 120, St. Petersburg, FL 33710; (727) 265-0013  [email protected] 

As an educator, Brandy Stark has  spent a lifetime studying the shifting dynamics of human culture. She teaches about the pride of the ancient world, the marvels of the Middle Ages, and the wildly shifting ways of modern life. It is her passion for these subjects that inspires her as an artist. This enthusiasm is expressed through wrapped wire metal sculptures which host moments of time, personal energies and emotive states.  These works become mediums for dialogue. Her award winning photography is designed to make familiar objects exotic and beautiful. The camera is used to exaggerate the image’s shape, form, light and texture.  To keep the soul of the photograph intact, few digital alterations are utilized. Each photograph is printed in an enlarged format to allow the viewer closer access to the subject. Though the subjects seem readily apparent, the true focus is subtle.  It can be the refraction of light on the surface of water, the abstracted shapes produced by a reclining animal, or the play of shadow across a unique surface.​​The award winning Metal Myths series evolved from a sculpture class that she took as an undergraduate. These works are designed as a way to attract a new generation of art lovers. The goal is to present elements of fantasy and imagination manifested through modern media to the audience.  Additionally, these pieces represent a form of interconnections: each wire is unique on its own but intertwined with the others so it becomes part of the comprehensive whole. Stark has a studio in ArtLofts above the Florida Art Gallery. Most recent updates via Starkimages @Instagram or email: [email protected] Stark also founded and operates Spirits of St. Petersburg, haunted trolley tours for St. Petersburg Museum of History, haunted walking tours and other events both during spooky season/Halloween and all year round.

Karen Carmichael interviews artist Susan Hess, a signature member of Florida Watercolor Society & International Society of Acrylic Painters who paints and exhibits at the The Art Lofts of St. Petersburg, FL above Florida CraftArt. It’s all about color… People wonder what inspires someone to become an artist? Considered a “creative colorist” Susan Hess’ work reveals immediately it is her passion for color. Her bold use of vibrant colors and fluid strokes creates energy in each painting. Born in Pittsburg Pennsylvania, Susan became fascinated with colors at the age of 9 when she created her own colors by melting together the crayons from “the big box” of Crayolas. She attended Marywood College and graduated with a bachelors degree in Fine Art and Interior Design. Working for 25 years as an interior designer she continued her fascination with color through her use of paint and fabrics. She developed her artistic skills as she studied with national and international artists.  A resident of Madeira Beach, Florida for over 20 years she creates interpretive impressions of people, places and nature. Her experimentation with acrylic, watercolor, and collage led to a fascination of encaustic wax painting. Her new encaustic work combines the spontaneity of color, the texture of acrylics and the flow of watercolors. She has married her two loves. Susan paints and exhibits her work at Artlofts Studios, # 211 in St. Petersburg, Florida. Her work has been included and awarded in numerous regional and national exhibitions. She is a signature member of Florida Watercolor Society and the International Society of Acrylic Painters. Says Susan: “My artistic journey is always full of surprising challenges and my goal is to convey that excitement through color, design and texture."  You can visit Susan at the Arts Lofts upstairs from the Florida Craft Art Gallery on the corner of 5th Street and Central in downtown St. Petersburg, FL. https://www.theartlofts.com/susan-hess-1 #susanhess @susanhessart @susanhessartist #artslofts #FloridaCraftArt #cityofthearts #stpetersburgFL #karencarmichael  #karenarts   #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete #njnovdec2024 LISTEN UP!

RadioStPete.com news director and host Nanette Wiser loves jazz, so when she saw Hot Tonic again recently at the James Museum, she couldn't wait to talk to the band. New Zealand’s Josh Hindmarsh and Ohio’s Victoria Woods are Hot Topic, the core of the Hot Tonic Orchestra who moved from Ohio to Gulfport six years ago. Gulfport was a perfect fit for the two. “We found the jazz scene in Tampa Bay to be welcoming and supportive. Gulfport is known nationally and internationally as an artistic musical community,” says Hindmarsh. Described as Postmodern Jukebox meets Amy Winehouse,  Hot Tonic Orchestra fuses jazz with Latin rhythms, funk and soul, tied together by original arrangements. With a recent Santana tribute at The Palladium, next up is a Beatles homage and a Burt Bacharach performance at a venue TBD.  Coming up is an amazing show at Dunedin Brewery on October 5 with Kenny Anderson who played with Arturo Sandoval and Gloria Estefan. In Gulfport, the play at the North End Tap House, the Tiki, Gulfport Brewery and the adjacent Wine Bar in addition to Grand Central Brewhouse,  the Dunedin Smokehouse (9/20) ,  Tuesdays at the James Museum of Western Art & Wildlife and Evy’s in Clearwater Beach. With a CD in the works, and lots of original music, their high-energy performances are always one off, never the same as the Orchestra ebbs and flows around the duo with musicians such as Mark Griffith, James Suggs, Alex Nakhimovsky, Aaron West, Mark Williamson, Luis Remerez, Johnny Lippiet, James Sonnentag, Jim Rupp, Antoine Fatoot, Logan Moore, Lee Tucker, Jacob Campbell, Erik Augis and Louis Tsamous.  In the works is a Tuesday jazz jam as well. In his "spare" time, Josh also teaches jazz and guitar to musicians and at State College of Florida.   facebook.com/hottonicmusic #nanettewiser #hottonic #hottonicorchestra #joshhindmarsh #victoriawoods  #jazz #santana #beatles #gulfport #music #guitarist #jamessuggs #palladium

THE EDGE Downtown St. Pete's vibrant neighborhood is popular with visitors and locals, thanks to unique boutiques, shops and festivals, including the upcoming Halloween on Central. The EDGE District can be described as a walkable, dog-friendly place with a mix of funky drinking, dining and shopping establishments – but that doesn’t quite do it justice. That’s because the EDGE District is just so cool and ever-changing. Yes, there are the local landmarks, such as Tropicana Field, Ferg’s, Green Bench Brewing and Bodega. But this district is always evolving, and that means there's something new and interesting to experience every time you visit.

Updated 10/24/2024  A year ago, we learned the sad news that one of America’s most beloved performers, Jimmy Buffett, lost his fight against cancer. He left behind a devoted fan base, surfing and boating friends, business associates, and a legacy of charitable generosity. He also left behind a remarkable band. RadioStPete.com news director and host Nanette Wiser knew trouble was on the hijinks horizon when Roger Bartlett, (the original Coral Reefer) came to our Thrive DTSP studio with John Frinzi; they often play together in Gulfport (North End Tap House) and around town - and the two riff together like Steve Martin and Martin Short. They're getting the band back together - the legendary Coral Reefers, of course - before they both head off to music festivals around the U. S. from Maryland to California. The October 12 concert was rescheduled for January 11, 2025 due to the hurricanes.  On that date,  The Palladium will host a tribute to Jimmy Buffett with the largest gathering of Coral Reefer Band members and friends yet to come together in the Tampa Bay area for this Parrothead Celebration: Roger Bartlett (Coral Reefer #001, Jimmy's first road band member from Austin in 1973) and special guests, including current Coral Reefers Nadirah Shakoor and Tina Gullickson (vocals) who backed up Jimmy for three decades , Doyle Grisham on peddle steel (who first recorded with Jimmy on “A White Sport Coat and a Pink Crustacean” in the 70’s, continues be a signature element of the Coral Reefer Band sound) and John Frinzi on vocal and guitar. Also in the band is Vinnie Seplesky on bass, Rich McDonald on drums and Robin Swenson on keyboard.  TICKETS HERE: https://palatspc.na.ticketsearch.com/sales/salesevent/17610 ABOUT JOHN John Frinzi, lead vocalist and guitarist at many memorable Key West Meeting of the Minds gatherings, will also be performing. John Frinzi blends folk, pop and country, delivering a sunny, laid-back beach vibe.  A gifted singer and songwriter, Frinzi has built an audience through craft and originality.  An early demo caught the ear of legendary pedal steel guitarist Doyle Grisham, a longtime member of Jimmy Buffett's Coral Reefer Band, and their working relationship led to John's first album, “Into The Dawn.”  His second release, “Shoreline,” showcases Frinzi's versatility as a songwriter and vocalist with many of the songs co-written by Tom Corcoran, co-writer of the Buffett classics,“Fins,” and “Cuban Crime of Passion".  Most recently, John teamed up with multi-platinum songwriter and producer Aaron Scherz to release "Blue Sky View".  Singles from all of these albums remain in regular rotation on Sirius/XM's Radio Margaritaville.  A seasoned live performer, Frinzi has toured nationally, performed in the Caribbean and Europe and has been featured at major festivals including Musikfest, The Keith Sykes Songwriters Celebration, Key West Songwriters Festival, Pensacola Beach Songwriters Festival and has shared the stage with acclaimed artists including Jesse Winchester, Mac McAnally, The Coral Reefer Band, Todd Snider and Maria Muldaur. For More Info & Booking:  [email protected]  863.430.8440   https://www.facebook.com/johnfrinzimusic/ ABOUT ROGER Roger is the original guitarist of Jimmy Buffett’s Coral Reefer band. In the early days it was just Jimmy and Roger. Two acoustic guitars, and vocals. After a year on the road as a duo, and with the success of a hit song, Come Monday, it was clear a band was needed for the bigger venues they were playing, so Jimmy added Greg “Fingers” Taylor on harmonica and keyboard, Harry Dailey on bass and Phillip Fajardo on drums.  Roger is also infamous as the singer and writer of the song Fool for a Blonde from the classic horror movie “The Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” and for the many incarnations of his own bands, and as lead guitarist for many artists from New York to Las Vegas. Roger was born in Shreveport, Louisiana. His father, Ray Bartlett, announcer for the nationally-syndicated radio show, The Louisiana Hayride, announced his birth to the coast-to-coast radio audience setting off a chain of events that continues today. His dad, besides sharing the Hayride stage with such legends as Hank Williams, Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, Johnny Horton and others, hosted his own show, Groovey's Boogie... with Groovey Boy, featuring the records of rhythm and blues and jazz artists like Muddy Waters, Johnny Otis, Duke Ellington and Cab Calloway. These were the musical influences that rocked Roger to sleep at night and played throughout the day. Since arriving in Florida, Roger has taken more acoustic approach. Cuban and Brazilian music, acoustic guitar and Bossa Nova have had a strong influence on the musical direction he's taken. With his distinctive voice, lead guitar work and twisted sense of humor, his music is unique. Roger has several albums out, the newest being SUNSET. It's a 14-song album filled with Latin rhythms, Jazz influences and Rhythm and Blues grooves. Finished during the pandemic lockdown, it features musicians from New York City and St. Petersburg.Florida. It has been very well received and Roger has just released a new video of a song from the album, Ocean Avenue. It's success has inspired Roger to beging work on a new album that will hopefully be released in 2023. Roger has shared the stage with many artists. Some of the most notable are: The Eagles, James Taylor, Lightnin' Hopkins, Jackie Wilson, Hoyt Axton, Heart, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, The Doobie Brothers, Jerry Jeff Walker, Doc Watson, Steve Goodman, Charlie Daniels Band, Count Basie, Three Dog Night, Tom Rush, Pablo Cruise, John Hartford, Ramblin' Jack Elliot, the Drifters, Little Feat, and many, many more. Roger lives and works out of St. Petersburg, Florida, playing with his band, as a sideman and as a composer and songwriter for albums, Theater, TV and film. #rogerbartlett #johnfrinzi #coralreefers #jimmybuffett #parrotheadcelebration #gulfport #texaschainsawmassacre #comemonday #palladium #nanettewiser  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete  #music

The annual St. Petersburg Opera Guild's annual gala will be 12/5/2024.  With Maestro Mark Sforzini, General Director in rehearsal, RadioStPete.com news director and host Nanette Wiser caught up with Business Manager Cecilia Messina (who has been part of the SPO family since 2017) about what's percolating from this world-class artistic organization, from Broadway Cabarets to Family Favorites - Pinocchio 11/16-17; 11/23-24, Holiday Sparkle 12/17-18- plus Mornings with Maestros. Opera Central is the home base at 2145 First Ave. South in downtown St. Pete. Broadway Cabaret: Kander & Ebb 11/2; Classic Show Tunes 2/22/2025; Cole Porter 4/26-2025. For tickets and to learn more: stpeteopera.org   (727) 823-2040 Maestro Mark Sforzini is not merely a visionary leader who established an innovative and successful nonprofit business (although he is, and he did). He is a composer whose orchestral and chamber works have been commissioned and performed by the Florida Orchestra, Tampa Bay Symphony, Alabama Symphony, Omaha Symphony, Eastern Music Festival, Toledo Symphony Orchestra and numerous others. He has written and produced several one-act opera and music programs based on operatic repertoire. Sforzini’s acclaimed Concerto for Clarinet and Bassoon debuted in 2018. The Alabama native served as principal bassoon of the Florida Orchestra from 1992 to 2007. He was the artistic director of the prestigious Encore Series of chamber music at the Palladium Theater for several years. He co-founded FloriMezzo in 2003, serving as its artistic director for five years. In addition, he was Music Director of the Pinellas Youth Symphony and a composer-mentor for Hillsborough County Schools. In 2005, he was invited to guest-conduct a one-time production of Madama Butterfly at the Palladium Theater. And so, St. Petersburg Opera Company was born. Far from resting on his considerable laurels, Sforzini continues to stretch, to test the boundaries of what an opera company can and should be. Each season brings several lavishly staged and fully orchestrated productions of classic operas, pops and cabaret shows, a children’s introduction to opera, seasonal showcases, and other vastly entertaining offerings. In addition to his duties as St. Pete Opera’s general manager, chief visionary, arranger, and conductor, Maestro Sforzini is in demand as an adjudicator, clinician, and chamber music coach. Since 2012, he has been music director and conductor of the Tampa Bay Symphony and established a Call for Scores Competition to promote 21st-century works by composers worldwide. Mark Sforzini was chosen by Musical America as one of 30 international industry professionals as a “Profile in Courage.” These top industry leaders have “taken a risk, spoken out where others were silent – all to the measurable benefit of their arts organizations and the field.”  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete  #nanettewiser #culture #arts #music #stpeteopera #opera #samsonanddelilah #carmen #alittlenightmusic #sondheim #pinocchio #holidaymusic  #operacentral #palladium #MarkSforzini

Introducing Noa Friedman, who has become one of the most prolific actresses in the recent history of Tampa’s Jobsite Theater. She’s one of the seven women who comprise the cast of the current show, the non-stop farce POTUS: Or, Behind Every Great Dumbass Are Seven Women Trying to Keep Him Alive. In the summer production of The Rocky Horror Show – the best-selling show in Jobsite history – Friedman played the demure (in the beginning, anyway) Janet Weiss. Perhaps you saw her in Twelfth Night? Or Dracula? Maybe in ThinkTank’s The Wolves? Or All My Sons with Tampa Repertory Theatre? Or The Crucible? Friedman was also a standout performer in the Stageworks Theatre production of The Immigrant in March of this year, portraying the wife of a man who moves from pre-Soviet Russia to rural Texas in search of a better life. Long sections of dialogue were spoken in Yiddish. The versatile thespian graduated from the University of Florida with a theater degree in 2022 (plus a degree in Business Administration, because why not) and hit the ground running as son as she returned home.  I loved the theater scene here, and I’m having so much fun,” Friedman says on today’s Arts Alive! podcast. “To be able to do what I love professionally is really all that I’m looking for.” #stpetecatalyst #artsalive #billdeyoung #noafriedman #jobsitetheatre #stageworkstheatre #tamparepertorytheatre #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

In this episode,  LL Kirchner takes on a trio of tales and a book recommendation that will "make your blood boil, your heart ached and your spirit soar. So buckle up...it's going to get bumpy. An Olympic athlete murdered by her partner, a look back at a woman scientist whose research was claimed by some famous folk, riffs on current events and  more. Ill-Behaved Women is a newsletter, community space, and podcast celebrating women who have made and who are making history. Because history is already littered with the untold stories of women. L.L. Kirchner is a podcast host, a voracious reader, unabashed feminist, fangirl, novelist, and author of a lot of stories about women (including my own in the form of two memoirs). "Between you and me, it’s a vehicle for exploring the issues that have faced women for years," says Kirchner. But what is ill-behaved? Because this is my space, I get to define it. I sure as hell don’t want other people to defining it for me. It’s a regular check-in about unforgettable women you may or may not have heard of, in the news, in books, in history, and in must-watch big and small screen moments. For more on LL Kirchner: https://llkirchner.com/ Her most recent book, Florida Girls, is a romp back in time with a troupe of swimsuit models on a war bond tour who take on the Florida Mafia. It's part of the Queenpin Chronicles, with Las Vegas Girls debuting in January 2025, folllowed by Havana Girls.

In this episode of LIVE LIFE BETTER, news director and host Nanette Wiser interviews Kerry Kriseman, author and ovarian cancer advocate. On Thursday, 9/12 the city issued a proclamation (scroll down to read). Seen here in the photo, left to right:  Topher Larking, Community Outreach, Moffit Cancer Center, Celma Mastry, Celma Mastry Ovarian Cancer Foundation, Copley Gerdes, Vice Chair, St. Petersburg City Council, Kerry Kriseman, survivor and advocate with Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance, and Deborah Figgs-Sanders, Chair, St. Petersburg City Council. Kerry shared some fascinating information about ovarian cancer, it's detection and incidence. " Ovarian cancer is the deadliest of all gynecological cancers. Ovarian cancer "whispers," meaning that the warning signs, if any, are often subtle and can be mistaken for other conditions. Symptoms can also be misdiagnosed by health care practitioners, which often leads to a later diagnosis. Ovarian cancer is not an "old woman's disease," as previously thought. Anyone with ovaries at any age can get ovarian cancer." We also learned that In the absence of a definitive diagnostic test, people with ovaries who suspect they may be more susceptible to ovarian cancer are urged to undergo genetic testing, and consider an prophylactic salpingectomy, which is removal of the fallopian tubes, since it's believed that ovarian cancer begins in the fallopian tubes.  9/14 EVENT  The Celma Mastry Ovarian Cancer Foundation One Step Closer to the Cure race returns to St. Pete. The fundraiser features a 5K run/walk and 1-mile run/walk; the race starts and ends at Albert Whitted Park. Help provide financial assistance to ovarian cancer patients, while also supporting research, prevention, and education in the community. Wear your teal to support the cause! City of St. Petersburg Proclamation Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month · Whereas ovarian cancer is the fifth leading cause of cancer deaths of women in the United States and causes more deaths than any other gynecologic cancer; · Whereas in the United States, a woman’s lifetime risk of being diagnosed with ovarian cancer is about 1 in 78; · Whereas the American Cancer Society estimates 19,680 cases of ovarian cancer will be newly diagnosed in 2024 and 12,740 individuals will die from the disease nationwide, including 1650 new cases and 1050 deaths in Florida; · Whereas the five-year survival rate for ovarian cancer is 50 percent and survival rates vary greatly depending on the stage of diagnosis; · Whereas there is not currently an effective diagnostic tool for screening and early detection does not exist; · Whereas while the mammogram can detect breast cancer and the Pap smear can detect cervical cancer, there is no reliable early detection test for ovarian cancer; · Whereas Black women with ovarian cancer are more likely to have late-stage diagnoses, receive lower quality clinical services, and have lower five-year survival rates than non- Black women; · Whereas women of color, low-income women, and women living in rural areas have more barriers to accessing standard quality of care and are more likely to receive care at a facility that has poorer adherence to National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) treatment guidelines; · Whereas too many people remain unaware that the symptoms of ovarian cancer often include bloating, pelvic or abdominal pain, difficulty eating or feeling full quickly, urinary symptoms, and several other vague symptoms that are often easily confused with other diseases; · Whereas improved awareness of the symptoms of ovarian cancer by the pubic and health care providers can lead to a quicker diagnosis; · Whereas the lack of an early detection test for ovarian cancer combined with its vague symptoms mean that approximately 80 percent of cases of ovarian cancer are detected at an advanced stage; · Whereas all women are at risk for ovarian cancer, but approximately 20 percent of women who are diagnosed with ovarian cancer have a hereditary predisposition to ovarian cancer, which places them at even higher risk; · Whereas women who know that they are at high risk of ovarian cancer may undertake prophylactic measures, such as opportunistic salpingectomy, to help reduce the risk of developing this disease; · Whereas according to a 2016 consensus report by the National Academy of Medicine, ‘‘there remain surprising gaps in the fundamental knowledge about and understanding of ovarian cancer” across all aspects of the disease; · Whereas each year during the month of September, Ovarian Cancer Research Alliance (OCRA) and Community Partner organizations hold a number of events to increase public awareness of ovarian cancer and its symptoms; · and Whereas September should be designated as ‘‘National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month’’ to increase public awareness of ovarian cancer: Now, therefore, be it resolved, that the [state name] [legislative body] supports the goals and ideals of National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month.  #ovariancancerawarenessmonth #ovariancancer #cancer #health #livelifebetter #womenshealth #kerrykriseman #fundraiser #Celma Mastry Ovarian Cancer Foundation #nanettewiser  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

THE EDGE Downtown St. Pete's vibrant neighborhood is popular with visitors and locals, thanks to unique boutiques, shops and festivals, including the upcoming Halloween on Central.

That’s because the EDGE District is just so cool and ever-changing. Yes, there are the local landmarks, such as Tropicana Field, Ferg’s, Green Bench Brewing and Bodega.

In this St. Pete Catalyst Arts Alive! podcast, Erica Sutherlin, the newly minted artistic executive director of St. Petersburg’s long-lived performance space-slash-gallery, The Studio @620, reveals what she’s planning for the fall season and beyond. Many of the usual 620 suspects – Radio Theatre Project, Keep St. Pete Lit poetry nights – will remain. And yes, there’s been some reorganization of how things will play out in the warm and welcoming downtown venue. She’s curated a season of theater, music and more – shows that will be interspersed with the community programming 620 is known and appreciated for. “There is a lot of uncertainty in people, and I can respect that,” she explains. “Because it is change. And if you don’t know me, if you’ve never taken the time to have a conversation with me, then you don’t know what to expect. But I’m always down for a good cup of coffee and a conversation. “There’s change here, but I think it’s good change. The Studio is 20 years this year, and we can’t keep doing the same thing for 20 years. We have to revitalize it. We have to bring something new into the space, to push it forward.” At the end of the conversation, she looks more deeply into the future. “It’s my expectation to lay the groundwork for the next person to come in,” she explains. “And make it even better than this. And that will change.”  #studio@620 #ericatutherlin #billdeyoung #stpetecatalyst #stpete #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

RadioStPete.com news director and host Nanette Wiser shines a spotlight on another Good Burger. One of the newest members of the St. Petersburg Chamber of Commerce is Top Buttons St. Pete, an upscale thrift boutique with a big mission to make a difference for women affected by domestic violence and human trafficking. Located at  861 Central Ave. in downtown St. Pete, owner Sara Garas describes its mission as "sustainable shopping, where fashion meets philanthropy. Our boutique offers a curated selection of high-quality, gently used clothing & accessories. Proceeds from every purchase directly benefit local girls at risk, providing them with free clothing, essential workshops on resume building, interview skills, and basic life skills." Garas' journey to launching Top Buttons and helping women is admirable."I am a girl who grew up in the Middle East and  experienced firsthand the challenges and the obstacles for a woman to survive and succeed. I am one of four girls. I lost my dad when I was really young, and we worked very hard to be able to succeed in the Middle East. I worked with a Proctor and Gamble globally, and I always made sure there was an initiative to help women who who really need the resources to succeed. When I moved to Thailand, I worked with an organization there that provided safe housing for survivors of human trafficking." Her friend in Pasco County started Top Buttons there, and Garas franchised the concept for Pinellas County after discovering a girl who had escaped her captivity in her backyard one night. Piqued by this issue, she researched human trafficking and discovered that Florida and Tampa Bay were battling this scourge. Now, she is partnering with other organizations including Heels To Heal, and hopes to serve women 18 to 30 with clothes for getting back to work as well as job hunting skills and more. If you have gently used clothes, please bring them to Top Buttons. If you can help with workshops and other resources, please contact Garas.  Learn about their mission: www.tbstpete.org Social media: facebook@topbuttonsstpete,  ---- Instagram @topbuttons.stpete RIBBON CUTTING: 9/20 @noon The ribbon-cutting will feature live music and entertainment, complimentary refreshments, raffle and giveaways and more. #gooddeeds #saragaras #stpetersburgchamberofcommerce #nanettewiser #charity #fundraising #shoppingforgood #humantrafficking #domesticviolence #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

THE EDGE Downtown St. Pete's vibrant neighborhood is popular with visitors and locals, thanks to unique boutiques, shops and festivals, including the upcoming Halloween on Central. The EDGE District can be described as a walkable, dog-friendly place with a mix of funky drinking, dining and shopping establishments – but that doesn’t quite do it justice. That’s because the EDGE District is just so cool and ever-changing. Yes, there are the local landmarks, such as Tropicana Field, Ferg’s, Green Bench Brewing and Bodega. But this district is always evolving, and that means there's something new and interesting to experience every time you visit.

In this episode of LIVE LIFE BETTER, RadioStPete.com news director/host Nanette Wiser helps you sweeten your resolution to break the sugar habit with these tips for reducing sugar cravings. Sugar and weight gain can lead to diabetes, heart disease and some types of cancer.  Journal your food intake. Drop your sugar intake by not bringing it into the house. The Ohio University Medical Center determined that a sugar detox will take between 3-10 days. The more sugar you are normally taking in, the longer the detox will take.  Substitute fresh for processed foods. Salad dressings, flavored yogurt, granola, bottled tea, canned soups, ketchup and other foods contain sugar. Avoid soda and fast food.  Rethink recipes. Cut some sugar out of everything you bake, or consider substituting unsweetened applesauce. Sugar comes by a lot of names, so learn to read the lables.  Artificial sweeteners are NOT the answer.  Substitute fruit, yogurt, sweet potatoes, and veggie/fruit smoothies #livelifebetter #sugar #eathealthy #nosugar #healthyliving #healthyeating #nanettewiser  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

Among his other titles, Rob Mondora is an NFL Field Team Member. That means he’s been supervising the staging equipment for Super Bowl halftime (and pre-game) shows for 16 years, all over the country. Mondora is a veteran in the sound, lights and staging business … who happens to live and work right here in Pinellas County. He’s our guest on today’s episode of Arts Alive! because he is also the artistic supervisor for the Central Park Performing Arts Center, a jewel of a theater, owned and operated by the City of Largo. Although the CPPAC (try saying that three times fast) is the centerpiece of the 70-acre Central Park campus (at the intersection of East Bay Drive and Seminole Boulevard), there are other aspects worth paying attention to, including the 150-seat Parkview Room, which has – as you might surmise – magnificent wall-sized window views of the leafy mid-Pinellas greenspace. During the conversation, Mondora discusses the whys, hows and what-ifs of booking performances in the 450-seat, state-of-the-art performing arts center. There have been some unique one-nighters there, and there will be more in the upcoming new season, which Mondora teases on this podcast. #stpetecatalst #artsalive #robmondora #CPPAC #largo #pinellas #theatre #billdeyoung #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

Welcome to Historically St Pete with Rui Farias, executive director of the St. Petersburg Museum of History. Rui's podcast explores the truths, possibly the myths of the people and events that created the Sunshine City. The Museum of History has been sharing the stories of the Sunshine City for 102 years and we are happy to share those stories with you here on Radio St. Pete.  St. Petersburg has a national, even a world-wide reputation of being a hot bed for the arts. Galleries, museums, art schools, murals, you name it, we have it.  But this isn’t anything new, we have been an arts haven for over 100 years.

RadioStPete.com news director and host of the Good Deed series say Bonnie Kesler Fouts and hubby Marty performing with Grego Anderson in Gulfport a couple of weeks ago. In this conversation, Bonnie introduces me to her encore chapter, as a volunteer and President of Boley Angels which raises funds Boley needs not covered by grants and subsidies.  They are hosting a membership event 9/12 to invite new members to join. Their annual Jingle Bell Run is 12/13.  EVENTS https://boleycenters.org/events/ JINGLE MINGLE RUN https://boleycenters.org/events/boley-centers-annual-jingle-bell-run/ BECOME AN ANGEL https://interland3.donorperfect.net/weblink/weblink.aspx?name=E345032&id=35 "Donating my time & energy to the Boley Angels seemed the perfect fit for me as a retired educator," says Bonnie. Kesler was born and raised in St Pete.  She worked professionally as a school psychologist for Manatee County Schools from 1989-1993 and then as an independent contractor providing psychological assessments for two private practices. After 9 years as an adjunct professor of psychology at St. Petersburg College, she taught full time as an associate professor of psychology. During her tenure there, she served as secretary for SPC's campus council & a campus representative for the college wide faculty senate.  She also served as faculty advisor to the Eta Nu chapter of Phi Theta Kappa until my retirement in 2021.     #boleysanges #bonniekesler #bonniefouts #gooddeeds #nanettewiser #boleycenters #homeless #mentalhealth #housing  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

(LC 8/28) Ill-Behaved Women is a newsletter, community space, and podcast celebrating women who have made and who are making history. Because history is already littered with the untold stories of women. L.L. Kirchner is a podcast host, a voracious reader, unabashed feminist, fangirl, novelist, and author of a lot of stories about women (including my own in the form of two memoirs).   Her podcast dives into the stories of women who refuse to be silenced, sidelined, or well-behaved in the face of injustice.  "I'm your host, avid reader, pop culture junkie, and author of The Queenpin Chronicles, a series that delves into women exploring what it means to be free post WW2, LL Kirchner, and today we've got a powerful lineup of stories that will inform, inspire, and maybe even infuriate you – in the best way possible." In this episode of Ill Behaved Women, Kirchner riffs on the DNC, Kamala Harris, the Taliban's push to turn back the clock, from women's rights to wearing hajib, the debate on abortion and women's rights to their bodies, and so much more. Her most recent book, Florida Girls, is a romp back in time with a troupe of swimsuit models on a war bond tour who take on the Florida mafia. "Between you and me, it’s a vehicle for exploring the issues that have faced women for years," says Kirchner. But what is ill-behaved? Because this is my space, I get to define it. I sure as hell don’t want other people to defining it for me. It’s a regular check-in about unforgettable women you may or may not have heard of, in the news, in books, in history, and in must-watch big and small screen moments. --Florida Girls is now available on audio! --She has  two upcoming talks in St. Petersburg in September. https://llkirchner.com/events --To book her as a speaker or for you book club, go to her website.   https://llkirchner.com #radiostpete #llkirchner #author #illbehavedwomen #currentevents #womenissues #feminism #floridagirls  #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio

THE EDGE Downtown St. Pete's vibrant neighborhood is popular with visitors and locals, thanks to unique boutiques, shops and festivals, including the upcoming Halloween on Central. The EDGE District can be described as a walkable, dog-friendly place with a mix of funky drinking, dining and shopping establishments – but that doesn’t quite do it justice. That’s because the EDGE District is just so cool and ever-changing. Yes, there are the local landmarks, such as Tropicana Field, Ferg’s, Green Bench Brewing and Bodega.

With hosts Pete Gallagher, Tim Valle, Stefanie Hinton, Peppermint Patty, Alexis Baum, Jeff Schorr and Diane Gallagher (photographer). The Florida Folk Show has been an important part of the music scene in Florida for more than two decades and has helped answer the question: “What makes a song a Florida Folk Song??” Those who like traditional folk often discount contemporary folk, and vice versa. It really has less to do with the rules and more to do with soul! Does the song or songwriter or performer have a Florida soul? Can you feel it? The late great co-founder of the Florida Folk Show, songwriter Bobby Hicks, liked to say: “I know a Florida Folk Song when I see it!”  Everyone at Radio St. Pete is proud to continue the great work the Florida Folk Show has done to capture that soul, stir up interest in the genre and, maybe, inspire some new Florida songwriting . In addition, the Florida Folk Show always  broadcasts from remote locations, from the Craftsman House Gallery in St. Petersburg to the Everglades Rod & Gun Club in Everglades City, the Flamingo Bar, Jack Kerouac’s House,  on board the R/V Western Flyer research vessel, at the Florida Folk Festival in White Springs, the Will McLean Festival in Brooksville, even a biker gathering at Herb’s Limestone Country Club, Middle of Nowhere Florida, Bula Café and many more.

Diana Molina, our guest on today’s edition of the Arts Alive! podcast, is creative director of the Juntos Art Association of El Paso, Texas. The city is bordered on the south by the Rio Grande river; on the other side is Juares, Mexico. Molina is also the curator of the exhibit Icons & Symbols of the Borderland: Art From the U.S.-Mexico Crossroads, which is visiting the James Museum of Western and Wildlife Art starting Saturday. Consisting of 80 pieces including painting, sculpture, photography, neon and mixed media, Icons & Symbols is a bold, vivid tapestry of works that highlight the area’s blend of indigenous, Mexican and American heritage through rich symbolism, irony, hope and even humor. “Borderline,” Oscar Moya, acrylic on canvas. In the James Museum’s media announcement of the exhibit, Molina said: “Providing a close-up view of the crossroads at a critical point in U.S. history, the artwork makes vibrant personal and political statements that inspire constructive dialogue and connective tissue to bridge divisions and better shape our future.” In this podcast, we get to ask her questions about the unique perspectives of artists in that area – and about specific works on view at the James Museum. Molina will lead a Gallery Tour at 10:30 a.m. Saturday. #stpetecatalyst #billdeyoung #tampabay #radio #radiostpete #jamesmuseum #stpete #stpetefl

(Aired 8/26/2024) In this week's episode, Rui Farias interviews Jay Caldwell, an author, collector, and creator of the history of the baseball Negro Leagues.  For about 180 years, baseball has been played on fields and diamonds throughout the United States.

RadioStPete.comINSIDER News Director Nanette Wiser chatted with retired doctor and St. Pete resident Carlos García Saúl's about his compelling first novel,  "Caravan of Specters," published by St. Petersburg Press. For those who love historical fiction and medical thrillers, this is for you.   Carlos was brand new to the ‘Burg  and happy to be retired from the cold North. But when he moved here to Coffee Pot downtown with his wife and children, the pandemic hit. As a Harvard-trained surgeon with time on his hands, he started researching another pandemic from another time that took place in his hometown of San Juan in Puerto Rico.  His research and idea for “Caravan of Specters” took off. Four years later, he’s a published author with plans for a series of book signings. It’s a mystery novel torn from the pages of history, a page-turning adventure story with roots in both tragedy and triumph. An historical thriller set on the island of Puerto Rico in the waning days of the 19th century, Caravan of Specters tells the story of Dr. Bailey Ashford, an American army physician who attempts to discover the reason thousands of peasant farmers, and their families, are dying from severe anemia. Ashford (the main character) and all the military personnel, along with every date, place and fact were 100 percent real. The individual patients, and the people who aid and assist the doctor in his laboratory in the city of Ponce, were created for the book. In addition to being an author, Carlos enjoys family, fishing and growing exotic orchids in his spare time.  https://stpetersburgpress.com/caravan-of-specters/ #caravanofspectors #nanettewiser #books #author #historicalfiction #puertorico #CarlosGarcíaSaúl' #stpetersburgpress

Explaining why the state is more than the “Florida Man” stories and the politics that so often make national news, and looking beyond the crowded beaches and theme parks, Salustri celebrates what makes the state worth a deeper understanding in this lively trip through its natural beauty and fascinating history. Journey with Salustri through centuries of forgotten Florida lore, into the Everglades and through the springs and over ranchlands and scrub habitats to discover a state rich in environmental wonders and unique human stories. Florida Spectacular lifts the curtain on multiple facets including the legacy of Zora Neale Hurston and the Black community at Eatonville; the bravery of Emateloye Estenletkvte, a Seminole woman who escaped from captivity back to her homeland; the two “frenemy” Henrys, Flagler and Plant, and their projects in transportation and tourism; the three “Marjories,” the influential environmentalists and writers; and people working to solve issues facing the state today, such as those who have used Florida’s hurricanes to make storm forecasting better for the whole world and those who have helped show the critically endangered Florida panther a path back from extinction. Along the way, Salustri brings to light lesser-known moments from Florida’s history that help illuminate the state’s significance in American and world history. Salustri tours readers through the hidden-in-plain-sight Florida, the overlooked treasures, the cultural complexities, the environmental challenges and successes. Her stories show that with curiosity and an eagerness to learn, it doesn’t take much to discover the spectacular in Florida’s past and present.   Cathy Salustri is the owner of The Gabber Newspaper, the oldest independent weekly newspaper in Florida, and the author of Backroads of Paradise: A Journey to Rediscover Old Florida. Salustri writes about her travels through Florida on her website, GreatFloridaRoadTrip.com, and is cohost of The Florida Spectacular podcast.

(LC 0819) In this episode St. Peterburg Museum of History Executive Director talks with Christine Page, Executive Director of the St. Petersburg Shuffleboard Club locates on Mirror Lake in downtown St. Pete. When the village of St. Petersburg was originally platted in the late 1800s, there was one block of green space for a city park. In 1908 it was named Williams Park. It became the center of city leisure activities. By 1920, too many leisure activities. Residents began complaining that games for leisure were overrunning the natural green space. So, in 1923, City leaders decided to move those activities westward in the city. To share the story of what comes next is Christine Page.

“Beer!” - My tribute to the world’s finest adult beverage, including the story of a few special beers.   Digital Flotsam was originally created by RadioStPete volunteer P.W. Fenton.

Why "Do Good Day"? You may be wondering what drives this initiative. The founder of Transparent Benefit Solutions, Liam Arrington, recognized that organizations like yours often rely on donations and volunteers, which can be challenging to secure. Conversely, many community members lack knowledge about how to get involved or where to donate. To bridge this gap, we created an event that brings together both aspects of the community under one roof. "Do Good Day" will operate similarly to a career fair or job fair, featuring a festive atmosphere with a band that will also be present at the event from 1pm - 5pm. Additionally, a diverse array of nonprofits, including yours, will be present to share information and showcase their work. The event will be at 3 Daughters Brewing on September 21st from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions.  If you would like to confirm your participation, please reach out to Liam Arrington at 727-247-8256/ [email protected] or Meredith Pericles at 727-543-6218. #transparentbenefitsolutions #liamarrington #dogoodday #greenbenchbrewery #tampabay #radio #radiostpete #karencarmichael #nonprofits #downtownstpete

The bay area’s most distinguished – and chameleonic – actor is today’s guest on the Arts Alive! podcast. Roxanne Fay is onstage at the Straz Center’s Shimberg Playhouse in a Jobsite Theater production of the one-woman show Thrice to Mine. Fay wrote the play as artist-in-residence at Hawthornden Castle in Lasswade, Scotland. Her character is Gruoch, who lived in the 11th century in the Kingdom of Alba, what would come to be known as Scotland. Gruoch’s story parallels, to an extent, that of the fictitious character Lady Macbeth, created by William Shakespeare some 500 years later. She was, in fact, the wife of MacBethad mac Findlaích, the troubled King of the Scots. The real Lady Macbeth. Thrice to Mine – the phrase is part of the incantation from the three witches in Shakespeare’s tragedy Macbeth – recalls true history, as much as is known about the woman, peppered in with certain elements of the Bard’s re-dreaming of that period of uncertainty, war and bloodletting. It is compelling storytelling. Fay’s Gruoch speaks in plain English, not the iambic pentameter of Shakespearean dialogue.  #artsalive #stpetecatalyst #billdeyoung #roxanneFay #Billdeyoung #jobsitetheater #thricetomine #strazcenter #shimbergplayhouse #tampabay #radio #radiostpete

In our ongoing Live Life Better series, RadioStPete.com news director Nanette Wiser interviewed historian and St. Pete community activist Will Michaels about KIDS and KUBS, the Granddaddy of senior softball since 1930.  The regular intraclub competitive season runs in full uniform from the last week in October through March .The scheduled home team wears white shirts, and the visiting team wears red shirts. The shirts have a large playing number and their last name on the back of the shirt, the American flag on the right sleeve, the City of St Pete Logo on the left sleeve, the member’s first name on the front, and the Kids and Kubs logo on the pocket. The uniform of the day is long or short dark blue pants—a red, white, and blue cap with the Kids and Kubs logo and a black bowtie. Information on these items will be provided; however, you must buy the long white dress pants. The Kids and Kubs divide the members into four teams and play against each other at North Shore Field Tuesdays, Thursdays, and some Saturdays beginning at 10:00 and 11:30 AM. Pick-up games are held at these times for the rest of the year with your choice of dress. Batting and fielding practice begins one-half hour earlier. Men and women who have passed their 74th birthdays may try out and practice during those pre-game sessions.
