St. Louis Public Radio is a non-profit media organization, delivering accuracy and understanding. We ask difficult questions and push the boundaries of storytelling, bringing context and humanity to the issues and ideas that affect life in the metro region, Rolla, Quincy and rural areas in Missouri and Illinois. Reflecting the voices of our community, we engage in crucial conversations that bring people together. With award-winning local news coverage, original podcasts, jazz and classical music channels, and national and international news from NPR and the BBC, we are a listener-supported service of the University of Missouri-St. Louis.
