Saint Louis Live!

The hawk has released Travis as he saunters into the studio for the Powder Hour. Its discovered that Jeff has pulled a fake sick stunt so the Fair or Foul topic reflects his blind-man-fade story. The guys discuss Trump's weight claims, some Blues hockey, and release the Morning Melee. 

Dr Ed pops by to chat with Chris and Michael. The fellas discuss cold weather threats to your pets, Cardinals off season, and Dr. Ed heading to Columbia for a work trip.

The final hour involves Travis becoming the moral authority when discussing Sean Payton, Gaines disagrees. The fellas also dive deep into robot usage and why Travis will have one. Fair or Foul ends the show.

Travis is back today after making his MLK Day very special yesterday by dropping shots on white people for using weak MLK quotes on Facebook. Travis is ready for passive aggression. Do the DeWitts actually own the Blues? The city may have enacted a little bit of theatre. Michael Girsch was at the Winter Warm-Up but didn't actually do anything. Is he on an internship? We're a little curious about Tyler O'Neill's biceps. We're spoiling Game of Thrones on the air because it's been long enough to talk about ice dragons. Chris is approaching 2009 Rams-level apathy with the St. Louis Cardinals. We kick off the inaugural "Halt!" by breaking down Bill DeWitt Jr.'s comments. Only Rick Hummel is allowed to wear the cool reporter's cap. Gaines thinks there are simply more important things going on in the building than winning baseball games right now. It turns out that reserved pessimism was the right attitude to take toward the Cardinals all along. Addison Reed would've gotten the Cardinals halfway to that 5 WAR threshold. 

Former Blues owner Michael Shanahan passed away yesterday and it's a sad event for the city. Shanahan brought Brett Hull to town and forever changed the Blues. The team is back tonight in Toronto and Jay Bouwmeester's usage is in question. Bill DeWitt and Mike Matheny each made some curious comments at the Winter Warm-Up and Jeff is curious about whether or not the DeWitts are as committed as it seems. Matheny also has some thoughts on the lineup which might come to fruition as a more useful lineup moving forward. Matt Carpenter promises he can hit places other than leadoff. 

Travis is really excited for Black Panther and he's certain that they've prevented the movie from being part of Hollywood scandal. Gaines almost knows exactly how tall the Arch is. How much did we all go to the Science Center? Travis wants to get rid of the dinosaurs. Chris is credentialed for Wizard World and we're going to get Sean Bean on the show and hope he doesn't die. Going through the list of Wizard World attendees reveals a shockingly impressive list of people. Red Bull is terrible for you but Jeff loves it. Eating a diner breakfast before heading off to the Winter Warm-Up is not the best decision for keeping your tummy under control. Using the bathroom at the Frontenac mall is not a fun proposition. Travis used to see pig roasts in the hallways of the Missouri state capital. How do people hang out in the mall? We do a deep dive into different kinds of public bathrooms. Troughs are a crime against humanity. Jeff once failed to carry a box for a pregnant woman and also once gave the cold shoulder to a blind guy. Fair or Foul closes the show as always.

Gaines and Chris close out the show hitting the weekend news, more Cardinal discussion, and close out with Fair or Foul.

Chris discusses his time covering UFC St. Louis, chatting with Dana White, and the entire spectacle. Harrison Bader of the STL Cardinals calls in to give his thoughts on the offseason, what it takes to succeed, and what he expects for his career.
