Meet the regulars of Broadway Café

Since 1992, Broadway Café in the heart of Westport has remained a central part of Kansas City's coffee scene. Plus: Ice skaters in mid-Missouri have to drive up to two hours in order to find a rink where they can practice their sport, but these two teens aren't letting that stop them.

It's already hard enough to be a competitive figure skater, but it's even more difficult when there's only one rink within a two hour drive. KBIA's Kassidy Arena tells the story of two teenage skaters in rural Missouri and the sacrifices they make for the sport they love.

Broadway Café has been a fixture in Kansas City's coffee scene for years, giving customers their much-needed caffeine fix. As part of KCUR's series The Regulars, Celisa Calacal and Allison Harris bring you an audio postcard from Broadway Cafe.
