In this episode of The 314 Podcast, host Sarah Fenske talks with Ron Kitchens, who became the CEO of Greater St. Louis Inc. in November and is already making some big changes. He shares his thoughts on the city/county divide and what the city should do with its portion of the Rams settlement funds. He also opens up on why he originally turned down the chance to come to St. Louis—and how he views the region today. Then, Sarah chats with SLM staff writer Ryan Krull about the billionaire taking over the parent company of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

“Nothing great can happen in the community and in the region without more and better jobs. [Greater St. Louis Inc.’s] job is to the pathfinder for those companies.”—Ron Kitchens
