What’s next for Royals’ & Chiefs’ stadium plans? A podcast on latest developments

The next step in determining the future playing venues of the Chiefs and Royals rest with the Missouri statehouse.

The Missouri Senate failed to pass a state funding measure that could provide up to 50% of the costs of a new stadium for the Royals and a renovated Arrowhead Stadium for the Chiefs. So Gov. Mike Kehoe has called for a special session to debate the provision of tax breaks that would keep the teams in Missouri.

On SportsBeat KC, The Star’s sports podcast, columnists Sam McDowell and Vahe Gregorian discuss the latest stadium developments and project what might happen next with the Chiefs and Royals.
