Clay shares how his project started as a creative outlet while living in Baltimore during his wife\u2019s med school years. Tired of nonstop St. Louis chatter at work, he embraced the nickname 'That STL Guy' and began filming bike rides through all 79 St. Louis City neighborhoods with a GoPro. The videos exploded, building a huge following of people who love the city\u2019s pride, quirks, and hidden stories \u2014 from educational history to cool local eats. They geek out over St. Louis lore, like the infamous Bloody Island in the Mississippi (site of historic duels, including Abraham Lincoln\u2019s near-miss with James Shields over snarky newspaper letters \u2014 Lincoln cleverly chose broadswords!). They touch on heavy topics like Pruitt-Igoe, the 1874 Great Divorce (city-county split), white flight, Delmar Divide, and why St. Louis crime stats get exaggerated due to its tiny 60-square-mile boundaries. It\u2019s a heartfelt love letter to STL pride, bipartisanship, and community \u2014 plus congrats to Clay on his upcoming baby! Check out ThatSTLGuy on TikTok for more. Classic St. Louis vibes.
