Concert Review: Thundercat Brings the Distracted AF Tour to Chesterfield, Missouri

Thundercat kicked off his “Distracted AF Tour” last month and recently made his way to Chesterfield, Missouri. Channel Tres, a rapper and DJ, opened the evening. He began with a smooth, laid-back mix before gradually increasing the energy with higher-tempo tracks. By the middle of his set, the crowd was clapping along to the beat and waving their arms in the air. It was an excellent performance that set the stage perfectly for Thundercat.

New virtual experience brings Kristallnacht survivor’s memories to St. Louis computers

On the night of Nov. 9, 1938, 6-year-old Charlotte Knobloch walked the streets of Munich with her father, afraid to return home. Across Germany and Austria, Nazi mobs were attacking Jewish homes, businesses and synagogues in what became known as Kristallnacht, or the Night of Broken Glass. Synagogues were burned, Jewish businesses were destroyed and more than 30,000 Jews were rounded up and sent to concentration camps.

Beyond a box of rice

The most “St. Louis” scene from Eric “Remrod” Mayes’ documentary Half Order doesn’t even take place on this continent. A Northside expat who has lived in China for the better part of a decade daps up his favorite street food vendor and greets him in Chinese. He orders some rice and sings its praises.

St. Louis Public Library’s new CEO Jason Driver has no desire to shake things up

When Jason Driver comes on the job as CEO of St. Louis Public Library in January, he isn’t just replacing a well-respected leader, Waller McGuire, who ran the system for 22 years. He’s also taking over what was recently named the 2026 Missouri Library of the Year. The library system earned the accolade for how it bounced back after the tornado that hit St. Louis in 2025 and temporarily closed two of its branches, reestablishing itself as a community hub (it even opened a lending library for power tools to help neighbors who needed them).
