Holiday struggles mounting for those facing food insecurity
By Skyler Baldwin
A Goose Creek woman — let’s call her “Terri” — says her family might not have any money left over for Christmas shopping this year. But she’s trying to stay positive.
“Right now, we’re really just hoping and praying,” said Terri, who asked to remain anonymous in an interview as temperatures this week flirted with freezing. “We don’t know what’s going to happen, so we have to just trust that we will have something. And that’s thanks to this organization and others that are banding together and giving their time, standing out in the cold with us.”
She sat on the concrete steps of Second Chance Recovery’s food pantry one early morning, braving the weather and busy traffic on foot, pushing a small cart to collect whatever donations could be given.
Terri isn’t alone, as dozens line up behind her or park in their cars each week to get food for themselves and their families.
Several pantries that partner with the Lowcountry Food Bank see similar turnouts every day that they are open. And in many cases, after only 15 minutes of distribution, the pantries have given away all they have for the day. But those who line up early — often half an hour before the pantry opens — are grateful for what they get.
“They’re wonderful workers and volunteers,” Terri said. “They give us fresh vegetables, fruit, bread and even sweets. And
this is just one pantry that really helps and really does the right thing by their community.”
The Lowcountry Food Bank gets food and other donations from several sources, including retail and grocery partners and community organizations. That then gets loaded up every day and sent to 240 different partner agencies and food pantries across 10 counties.
Holidays around the corner
With the holidays quickly approaching, folks in line at the pantries are looking forward to just their next meal, as opposed to Christmas shopping and holiday lights.
“This community is below poverty, so it’s hard to buy a $15 turkey,” said Myra Davis, a food pantry organizer at Joshua United Methodist Church in Moncks Corner.
“Even if you can just get some chicken or something, that’s all they’re concerned about. They’re not worried about putting up holiday decorations. They’re concerned about feeding their children, feeding their husband, feeding their wife.”
Though most people at the pantry line up in their vehicles and help volunteers load up the trunks, one man who we’ll call “Mark,” walks from his nearby home with a little red wagon.
“I’m disabled, and I get a check every month, but it doesn’t last,” he said. “This food helps me make it through one week
to the next. For Christmas this year, I’ll be happy just to get a turkey.”
Davis said she often lets Mark cut to the front of the line, rather than make him sit in his own wagon surrounded by dozens of exhaust pipes. Volunteers on Wednesday gave him an extra pack of sweets for his birthday this weekend.
Shutdown worsens issues
Jill Hirsekorn, the food bank’s spokesman, said more people than ever are seeking food assistance due to the record-setting government shutdown and the slashes to government benefits.
“We are seeing many folks during this government shutdown who are seeking food assistance for the first time,” Hirsekorn told the Charleston City Paper. “We are definitely seeing a significant rise in the number of neighbors who visit our Charleston and Myrtle Beach facilities to obtain an emergency bag of food to take home.”
Over the last year, the need for food assistance has risen by 30%, according to Lowcountry Food Bank CEO Nick Osborne. In 2024, the food bank supported more than 200,000 residents, distributing more than 46 million pounds of food, the equivalent of 33 million meals. In October, however, walkins at the food pantry tripled, and web page traffic more than doubled.

S.C. lawmakers discuss regulating THC products
South Carolina lawmakers reportedly are looking to send a bill to the governor’s desk next year that would ban the sale or distribution to anyone under 21 of low-dose hemp-derived consumable products, such as popular THC-infused drinks and edibles.
Unlike beer, wine and spirits, there is currently no legal age requirement to purchase certain edibles or drinks that contain THC. Some South Carolina retailers already voluntarily require the age limitation, but groups from law enforcement to representatives from the hemp industry believe it should be state law.
Meanwhile this week, the U.S. Senate-passed legislation to end the government shutdown includes a measure to further regulate hemp-derived products — a move critics say could kill business and hurt hemp farmers.
The new language in the bill would change the definition of what makes a hemp plant legal, a move that U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, R-Kentucky, said would mean “every plant in the country will have to be destroyed.” — City Paper Staff

College not shying away from cemetery controversy
By Herb Frazier
The College of Charleston is welcoming the pushback it is receiving over plans to build a new multi-story dormitory at 106 Coming St., site of a centuries-old burial ground, the chairwoman of the college’s board of trustees said.
“The opposition … shows a level of passion for the community,” said Renee Romberger, a retired Spartanburg health care executive who lives on St. Helena Island.
“We all have the same goals in mind,” she said in an exclusive interview with the Charleston City Paper. “All of us love Charleston, and we want to honor it and respect it. People are willing to share their concerns, and we need to make sure that we listen.”
The college’s board of trustees voted unanimously in June 2024 to purchase the property for the dormitory, Romberger said. The minutes from that meeting, however, show that board member Brian J. Stern, a Columbia commercial real estate developer, voted no. Board member Derrick L. Williams, a Columbia attorney, abstained.
Stern declined to comment. “Unfortunately, I can’t provide any comment, sir,” said Stern, son of Bill Stern, chairman of the S.C. Ports Authority. “I am not comfortable commenting on something like that.” Williams could not be reached for comment.
The college lacks on-campus housing, Romberger said. “This housing project is extremely important, especially for freshmen and sophomores. We have learned that kids perform better when they are living on campus. Students do better as a community that is working, playing and studying together.”
Community objections
The Charleston community’s response to the dorm, however, has led to the formation of Protect and Respect the Bodies, a coalition of individuals, organizations and faith groups that opposes construction on the 18th century “Strangers and Negroes Burying Ground.”
The group believes the college didn’t do enough to inform the community of its plans, and it doesn’t want the human remains at the site to be disturbed. Members of the group said the college should do more study before construction begins or put the dorm at another location. Some also say they wonder whether the college is concerned about historic preservation and respects the dead.
On Nov. 12, the college’s president Andrew Hsu met with Charlestonians who volunteered to serve on the newly formed Community Engagement Council. The meeting
A big part of that was the loss of the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP).
“The shutdown has really impacted everybody in some kind of way or another — working or non-working,” Terri said. “It’s not just about one person. It’s people who are working poor or living paycheck to paycheck. … Many of the people who are receiving benefits are disabled.
“If they pay their rent, they don’t have enough money left over for food. That’s who these benefits are for.”

A late 18th century map (altered for clarity) of the Charleston peninsula shows the location of the “Strangers and Negroes Burying Ground,” bounded by Coming, Vanderhorst, St. Philip and Boundary (Calhoun) streets. The College of Charleston is proposing to build a dormitory at 106 Coming St.
occurred after the City Paper’s printing deadline.
Meanwhile, the S.C. Department of Environmental Services (SCDES) has scheduled a combination public meeting and public hearing on the project at 6 p.m. Nov. 18 in the auditorium at the Charleston Museum on Meeting Street. SCDES also has set Nov. 28 as the deadline to submit comments on the project.
Looking for remains
The college has not set a date for a second round of ground-penetrating radar scans to determine whether human remains were under a parking lot at 106 Coming St., the former headquarters for the YWCA of Greater Charleston. Radar scans last year were inconclusive.
It is estimated between 4,600 and 12,000 individuals may be interred in the burial ground, according to a report prepared for the college. The deceased include poor Whites, Africans newly arrived on slave ships, travelers and orphaned children.
The city of Charleston’s Board of Architectural Review (BAR) has approved the college’s request to demolish the one-story YWCA building, but the college also needs SCDES approval before demolition can begin, a college spokesman said.
It is highly likely that a second scan of the ground after
Help on the way
According to the Coastal Community Foundation, to meet the current demand due to the loss of the federal SNAP funding, the Lowcountry Food Bank must add at least $125,000 in food assistance every week. That’s why the foundation activated its Care Fund Nov. 4.
The Care Fund seeks to bolster community outreach with flexible, rapid-response funding in response to different crises. Last week, the foundation set a goal to raise $500,000 for the Lowcountry Food Bank through The Care Fund. In just the first day, the foundation raised $340,000. As of Nov. 12, that total increased to $411,000, with
the parking lot is removed will yield evidence of human remains, predicted forensic historian Grant Mishoe of Summerville.
A yellow fever epidemic struck Charleston in 1792, the year the city-owned cemetery opened, he said. It is not immediately known how many people died, but they were buried in the cemetery, said Mishoe, who maps cemeteries on the Charleston peninsula. He said 106 Coming St. is within the old cemetery, bounded by Coming, Calhoun, Vanderhorst and St. Philip streets.
Romberger said if remains are found it will create for the first time “an opportunity to really honor and respect the people who are in the ground. If we find remains, then moving them to a place where they can be permanently respected and honored (creates) a better way to honor the dead than they’ve been in the past 200 years.”
Modern-day awareness
When the YWCA purchased 106 Coming St. in the early part of the 20th century, the old cemetery was not mentioned in a description of the property or the organization’s records.
As the city has grown, more forgotten burial grounds have been found, and attitudes about building on the bones of the dead have changed with it.
Organizers are planning a Dec. 14 dedication for the Anson Street African Burial Memorial at the Charleston Gaillard Center where the remains of 36 people of African and Native American descent were discovered in 2013 during an expansion of the building.
And this past May, 74 gravesites were found at 635 King St., the construction site for Courier Square, a mixed-use development on land previously owned by Evening Post Industries, the former parent company of The Post and Courier. The site was once the St. James Methodist Church, founded in the late 1700s, and a likely cemetery. The remains will soon be relocated to Bethany Cemetery, officials said.
Charlestonians have advocated for the protection of forgotten private burial sites, but far more people are buried in public cemeteries, said Charleston County Public Library historian Nic Butler, host of the awardwinning podcast Charleston Time Machine.
Butler said he did two podcasts on public burial sites in 2020 “because this is going to keep coming up,” he said. “I needed to put some information out there so people will have some resources” to use as more bodies are discovered.
about $71,000 coming from individual community donations.
“We are proud of the way the community has stepped up to support our region through The Care Fund,” Darrin Goss Sr., the foundation’s president and CEO, told the City Paper. “The fund is essential to counter the hardships caused by a loss of federal funding and a significantly increased need. We are hearing from our nonprofit partners that if the shutdown ended today, they expect it will take several weeks to return to a level of normalcy.”
On Nov. 12, the Duke Endowment announced a gift of $1 million toward Feeding the Carolinas, the association of
food banks in North and South Carolina, in response to the rising demand following disruptions to federal assistance. The funds will be divided among the 10 associated food banks based on the levels of food insecurity of the geographic areas they serve.

Lawmakers probing causes, solutions to youth gun violence
By Jack O’Toole
A new South Carolina House committee tasked with curbing the state’s historically high juvenile crime rate will sprint to produce short-term legislative recommendations this month — and then settle in for a long year of hearings, study and systemic reform proposals.
That was the two-step approach laid out by Berkeley County Republican Rep. Brandon Cox as he chaired the committee’s first meeting on Nov. 5, where he shared S.C. Law Enforcement Division (SLED) data showing arrests of more than 25,000 juveniles across the state in 2024. Of those, more than 1,600 were charged with gun crimes and 57 with murder.
Nevertheless, Cox and other committee members avoided the punitive rhetoric often associated with the issue in the past, stressing that the goal was to prevent minors from entering the criminal justice system in the first place.
“We want to love these children — all our children,” Cox told committee members in his opening statement.
Democratic Rep. Kambrell Garvin, whose Richland County district recently saw three teens injured when shots rang out at a Halloween bonfire, echoed the chairman’s remarks.
“They were simply being teenagers,” Garvin noted, “and gunshots erupted.”
Local police agencies told Statehouse Report they welcomed the legislative intervention, calling the problem of teens and guns an “epidemic” in their communities.
“We can’t do this by ourselves,” North Charleston Police Chief Ron Camacho said, noting 45 of the 209 illegal guns his department confiscated in 2025 were taken from teens.
He added, “We need help from parents, from the school district, from wherever we can get it to educate and alert our juveniles to the dangers and consequences of dealing with guns — and how one action can change your life forever.”
Asked what kind of immediate changes he’d like to see from the committee, Camacho turned to an issue local police have raised alarms about for years — the large number of guns stolen from cars that often aren’t even locked. Over the past two years, about 450 guns have been stolen from vehicles in North Charleston alone, department officials say.
And because so many of those guns wind up in the hands of teens, Camacho said, some sort of “accountability” for adults needs to be part of the solution.
“I’m not talking about the Second Amendment,” he said. “I’m talking about people who own guns being responsible, locking up their guns at home and not keeping them in their car.”
Reached by phone, committee member and S.C. Rep. Spencer Wetmore, a Charleston Democrat, said she shared the chief’s concern.
“We need to have that conversation,” she said. “There has to be accountability for both kids and adults. And one thing we know is what we’re doing isn’t working, so that’s one area I imagine we’ll try to address as quickly as possible.”
Other items the committee might look at immediately, she said, include so-called “status offenses” — that is, crimes like truancy that are only illegal because of the offender’s status as a minor — and gun crime sentencing. That said, Wetmore emphasized the chairman’s wish to take public testimony before announcing any nearterm actions, as well as his commitment to a more in-depth, deliberative process in 2026.
“It’s important for the public to understand that the short-term things we do are by no means the only things we’re going to do,” she said. “We’re trying to take a comprehensive look at these issues, and not just rush through a few ‘Look, we did it’ solutions.”
Looking further out, Wetmore emphasized the need for reform in the state’s juvenile justice, mental health, community outreach and educational systems.
“It’s going to be complex,” she said. “But those are the areas we’re going to have to focus on.”
ACLU of South Carolina’s Courtney Thomas, whose organization has been locked in a years-long battle with the state over conditions at its juvenile justice facilities, said she’s encouraged by the committee’s approach.
“We’re glad the House is willing to address these issues,” she said. “But it’s important for people to understand there’s no higher level of criminality of children in South Carolina than anywhere else. The difference here is the lack of statewide services.”
And it’s that lack of services, she said, that committee members need to hear about during a Nov. 13 public hearing.
“There’s still some stigma about having a child in custody, but that’s exactly who our legislators need to hear from,” Thomas said. “So I hope people will be brave and tell their stories — and that our legislators will listen.”
Blotter of the Week

A North Charleston woman on Oct. 31 told city police that she had recently evicted two people from her residence, and they came back in the night and stole her Chromebook, a gold bracelet and — yes, really — her cat. That’s it! You can take people’s money and TVs and cars, but when you mess with their pets, you get to deal with us. The nerve of some people!
Working overtime
A West Ashley woman on Oct. 27 reportedly tried (and failed) to steal several items from a Sam Rittenberg Boulevard store. While being questioned by police, officers told her she had an active warrant from Georgia for shoplifting. The information apparently came as a surprise to the woman, who according to a report, exclaimed, “Oh, is that the only one?” Might have been better to keep your mouth shut.
But wait, there’s more!
Mount Pleasant police on Nov. 1 stopped a vehicle for speeding on Interstate 526, but ultimately threw the book at the driver for driving without registration, insurance or a valid license plate. The driver said the car’s tag actually belonged to a friend. The vehicle was towed. What a great start to the month.

Don’t Get Your Tinsel in a Tangle
Thanks to enduring community heroes
That the Charleston area has a lot of everyday heroes is unquestioned. We are a generous, warm people. But all too often, we may get used to important charitable work done across our region and forget to say “thank you” enough. Now with Thanksgiving drawing near, let’s remember the people and organizations who dedicate their lives to us all.
Every day of the week, nurses and doctors save lives. Teachers and government employees help students and families in countless ways. And first responders — police officers, firefighters and emergency medical technicians — show up at scenes of violence and tragedy to protect, serve and assist.
This month, there’s another group of citizen-servants who deserve a special shout-out for their dedication to public service. Hats off to everyone in the Lowcountry who works to keep our neighbors fed during an unnecessary federal government shutdown that kept them from their jobs, held up paychecks and thwarted regular food assistance to tens of thousands.
In particular, here’s a big shout out of thanks to the leaders at the Coastal Community Foundation and two partners, Trident United Way and Palmetto Goodwill, for channeling hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Lowcountry Food Bank, which has been swamped with pleas for help during the six-week shutdown.
Within a day of the foundation opening its Care Fund to provide rapid-response funds to the food bank after the
lapse of federal nutrition assistance, donors gave $340,000. Since then, donors have added another $71,000 to steer the fund closer to its $500,000 monthly goal. A special shout out to these funders, all of which are putting their monies where their mouths are:
• Coastal Community Foundation: $150,000
• Trident United Way: $50,000
• Palmetto Goodwill: $50,000
• Saul Alexander Foundation: $25,000
• Jerry Kaynard: $25,000
• Ackerman Foundation: $25,000
• Stoops Family Foundation: $10,000
• The Post and Courier: $5,000.
Despite the expected end of the shutdown soon, the hurt and pain caused by the cessation of government funding since Oct. 1 will continue to cause harm. Families desperate to feed their children likely used up any holiday savings to buy food and necessities. That means in just a few short weeks, they won’t have the money to get gifts that their children and family members are dreaming of.
So while the immediate food crisis may be coming to an end, we should also remember to support charities like Goodwill, Toys for Tots, the Salvation Army and other local entities to help with toy drives and donations to make people’s holidays better.
CHARLESTON CHECKLIST of community objectives
We encourage community leaders to act on these audacious priorities:
1. Deal with the water. Build a strong resiliency plan to harden infrastructure and make smart climate change decisions about development, roads and quality of life.
2. Fix roads, traffic. Repair and improve roads and reduce traffic. Speed up alternatives, including more public transportation.
3. Be smarter about education. Inject new energy into the broken Charleston County school board by focusing on kids, not national mantras.
4. Conduct public business in public. Be transparent in public business. Stop the secrecy.
5. Invest in quality of life. Build more parks. Have more festivals. Invest in infrastructure that promotes a broad sense of community.
6. Engage in real racial conciliation. If we embark on more conversations and actions on racial reconciliation, our community will strengthen and grow.
7. Develop fewer hotels, more affordable housing. Make Charleston a more affordable place to live for everyone.
8. Develop Union Pier at scale. Let’s not put ship-sized buildings on the coveted Union Pier property downtown. Instead, make what comes appropriate.
9. Build and follow a 50-year plan. Plan for the county’s long-term future and follow the plan.
10. Pay people more. Pay a living wage. Push South Carolina lawmakers to set a real minimum wage.

What election results could mean for S.C.
By Andy Brack
With big Democratic wins on Nov. 4 in New York City, Virginia, New Jersey and California, let’s offer a few observations and then look at whether these off-year elections mean anything for South Carolina.
New York: A young, charismatic candidate, Zohran Mamdani, who sticks like Krazy to a message of making housing affordable and governing to help working people, trounced an older establishment Democrat running as an independent with the backing of President Trump.
Virginia: Charismatic former U.S. Rep. Abigail Spanberger, long seen as a rising Democratic Party star, led the state’s efforts with a 15-point win for the governor’s office in a backlash election that tipped the balance of the state’s House of Delegates to Democrats.
New Jersey: Mikie Sherrill, a powerful and charismatic former Navy pilot, energized a Democratic base that was getting lethargic by running a brutal anti-Trump campaign that resonated. By comparison, her GOP opponent seemed to play it safe with a balancing act on Trump.
California: A charismatic governor, Gavin Newsom, pushed through a ballot proposition in a landslide that will allow the state to redraw congressional districts to counter gerrymandering efforts by red states to fiddle with control of Congress. Almost 9 million people voted in a measure that had 2.4 million more yes votes — 63% — than those in opposition.
Closer to home, Charleston voters sent four of six candidates to city council — three newcomers and one incumbent — who pledged more transparency after two years of the administration of freshman mayor William Cogswell, a developer who seems more comfortable with private meetings than public. A common link in these elections appears to be charisma — a charm that has been missing in South Carolina statewide and legislative candidates in general in recent years.
What’s not helping are national Democratic leaders who still seem like they’ve got their fingers in their ears and mouths laced shut.
What also has been missing — and something that Mamdani proved in New York — is that having a strong clear message that focuses on regular people will energize voters.
What the Nov. 4 elections also may reveal are cracks in 10 years of political obfuscation and noise from Trump and his sycophants. Moderate mainstream voters from both parties who voted for Trump in 2024 may be feeling a little hoodwinked thanks to 10 months of governmental confusion that has led to the longest federal government shutdown in history, cancelled flights at airports and misery caused by shortages of food aid. They also may be perplexed by high grocery prices that Trump said he’d fix but hasn’t, in part due to a global tariff war that is making things tough all around.
What’s not helping are national Democratic leaders who still seem like they’ve got their fingers in their ears and mouths laced shut. Sure, they’re sticking together during the shutdown to try to keep health care bills from soaring, but when it comes to elucidating a clear message that resonates, they still fail.
If Democrats in South Carolina or nationally want to continue a blue wave at the midterms and then two years later in presidential politics, they’ve got to start standing for something that’s more than “we don’t like Trump.” They need a coordinated positive message that focuses on building economic opportunities, strengthening democratic institutions and promoting fairness and equality. Just saying no all of the time ain’t going to cut it if they want to retake Congress and the White House. Charisma is good, as any populist will tell you. But substance — “It’s the economy, stupid” or “Tax the rich to make things fair” — is important, too. This month’s elections showed what fresh candidates can do — and that should have incumbents in both parties scared. The 2026 elections here and in Washington could be our state’s most important yet, particularly for anyone who wants real change.

calls basketball her life

By Jarrett Van Meter
Sports broadcaster Debbie Antonelli keeps two basketball rims at her home in Mount Pleasant. One is outside, attached to the family’s driveway goal. It holds great basketball memories since she and her husband Frank moved to South Carolina in 1999. It’s the rim that the couple’s three sons — Patrick, Frankie and Joey — grew up using for practice. And it’s also the rim she has used since 2019 when hosting her annual “Nothing But Net” event in which she sinks 2,400 free-throws in a 24-hour span each May.
The second hoop is nowhere in sight from the outdoor court. It’s tucked away in the garage, the metal rusting, orange paint chipping away. Antonelli’s father first nailed it to the garage of her childhood home in Staatsburg, N.Y., when she was 9. When the family moved to Cary, N.C. ahead of Debbie’s eighth grade year, they detached the hoop and brought it with them. Even across adulthood moves to Kentucky, Ohio and South Carolina, Antonelli never let go of that rim.
And she’s never let go of her lifelong love of basketball.
“I don’t know my life without it. I really don’t remember,” she said of basketball. “I was that little girl in the driveway at 9 years old, shooting hoops all the time.”
A top sports broadcaster
After an accomplished playing career from 1982 to 1986 under legendary coach Kay Yow at N.C. State University, Antonelli made a brief go at post-collegiate coaching as a graduate assistant at Ohio University before pivoting into intercollegiate marketing.
She was hired by the University of Kentucky, where, given her knowledge of the sport, she appointed herself to call the

televised games for the women’s team. She has been on the air ever since and, now in her 38th year of calling games, has climbed to the top of the profession.
For the past few years, Antonelli has been the sporting voice at games for ESPN’s Charleston Classic tournament, which is Nov. 21 and 23 at the College of Charleston’s TD Arena. Her annual game and tournament assignments vary based on ESPN scheduling. She wasn’t assigned to the Classic this year, but she’ll still be in the stand scouting and enjoying the buzz.
“This is one of ESPN’s premier events because of the location of the College of Charleston in the middle of the downtown between King and Meeting,” she said. “The fans that come here absolutely love the proximity to all the restaurants and the things that you can walk to.”
She received the 2024 Curt Gowdy Media Award and been inducted into the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame. She was on the call for both Pat Summit and Geno Auriemma’s 1,000th win, Diana Taurassi’s final WNBA game, and Mike Krzyzewski’s final three home games in Duke’s Cameron Indoor Stadium.
Antonelli even called her son Patrick’s first Division I points when the seldom-used fifth-year graduate transfer checked in for Louisville with 1:55 remaining during a 2024 blowout win over Indiana. Louisville coach Pat Kelsey, a friend of the Antonelli family since his time coaching at the College of Charleston, winked at his pal as her son reported to the scorer’s table. In his limited playing time, Patrick connected on three free-throws, his only points of the season.
“We saw the moment coming, and we were ready,” remembered close friend and colleague Beth Mowins, who lives in San Diego and was also on the call for the game. “We ran with it and I think did it incredible justice. A chance to call your kid’s game has got to be one of the coolest things ever, and she handled it quite well.”

the camp and free-throw marathon will be held in a gym renamed in May as the Debbie Antonelli Gymnasium.)
In between commitments, there is always more film to watch, more prep to do.
“I love to work, I love to watch film. I love to watch games,” she said. “Sometimes my husband’s like, are you alright? Have you had enough? And I’m like, ‘No, I’ve never had enough.’”
“I don’t know my life without it, I really don’t remember. I was that little girl in the driveway at 9 years old, shooting hoops all the time.” —Debbie Antonelli
Then it’s back on the road, where continuous travel comes with challenges. She has slept in her car at the airport, followed snowplows down the interstate and even been pushed out of the snow by the National Guard after she got stuck in a blizzard in North Carolina.
“It tells you how crazy I am about the game,” she chuckled.
Keeping busy
Antonelli remains active.
Between the 2024-25 winter college basketball season and the summer’s WNBA schedule, she called more than 100 games. Ostensibly, coming home to Mount Pleasant offers the chance to unwind with some golf and dinners with friends, but even her down time is comparatively busy. Her numerous off-court ventures include a board seat for the Kay Yow Cancer Fund, hosting her Build Serve Empower All Girls Sports Camp each summer, and the annual 24-hour free-throw shooting marathon benefitting the Special Olympics. (In 2026,
The 2025-26 college season promises new adventures, new names to learn and new trends. Antonelli admits the game looks different from when she was first introduced to it more than five decades ago in upstate New York. Yet amid all of the changes, what has remained intact has allowed Antonelli to continue to thrive.
“I want fans to know how much I love the game when I walk in the gym,” she said. “I want everybody to think the same thing: ‘Oh, we got Debbie on the game. She’s going to be prepared, she will be fair, and she’s going to have a lot of fun.’ ”

Zimmern says Charleston lucky with fish
By Helen Mitternight
We’re lucky here in Charleston, says celebrity Chef Andrew Zimmern.
“In your part of the world, you have access to some of the freshest and most beautiful fish on Planet Earth,” Zimmern said.
Zimmern, known for his Bizarre Food franchise on the Travel Channel as well as other award-winning television shows and culinary books, will be in Charleston this weekend as part of the Food & Wine Classic. He will lead two seminars promoting the use of fish.
It won’t be Zimmern’s first time in the Holy City.
“l’ve probably been to Charleston about 30 times, making television, taking vacation, going fishing, going hunting or just driving through and spending a night or two because I like the city,” Zimmern said in an exclusive interview with Charleston City Paper.
He is a firm believer that one of the solutions to a healthier planet is to eat more fish, which, he says, also happens to be the way to get healthier humans.
“If you want to solve climate crisis issues, eat more seafood. Hunger? Eat more seafood, the water has a glut of it. If you want to combat factory farms that are raising hogs, beef, chicken, eat more seafood. For health and wellness, eat more seafood,” Zimmern said.
A philanthropic life
Eating seafood — in fact, eating, period — was the root of his philanthropic work, which started with his first passions for ending hunger and enabling better access to mental health care.
“Anything to do with children, hunger, any food issue, was my litmus test (for getting involved),” Zimmern said. “If you hop into the barrel on the hunger issue, invariably as you’re rolling in this barrel down the street, you bump into food waste, climate crisis, health care, gender and pay equity, regulatory issues, domestic economic development. You can’t talk about hunger and not talk about all the other things that play into it. Now all of it is what I spend the majority of my time working on.”
He has first-hand experience with the


A la carte
Support neighbors facing food insecurity
Feed the Need Charleston, a nonprofit founded by members of Charleston’s hospitality industry to address food insecurity, has launched a fundraiser in the wake of recent cuts to SNAP assistance. In partnership with Charleston restaurants and hotels, the organization is raising money to help the Lowcountry Food Bank.
Participating establishments will display information encouraging patrons to donate directly, and certain locations are collecting foods as well. All proceeds go to the food bank. More: feedtheneedcharleston.org.
What’s new
mental health part. Zimmern talks openly about his own experience as a “formerly homeless, formerly incarcerated, formerly street junkie-suicide survivor” and says he has been sober for 34 years, showing that access to affordable treatment works.
“Sprinkle in dignity and respect. I’m proof positive that it works,” he said. That experience drives his need to give back not only to mental health causes, but to the environment. He has recently cowritten a book, The Blue Food Cookbook, with 140 recipes and a primer on how to eat more seafood and purchase sustainable seafood. He will present a seminar Nov. 16 at the Classic called, “Hope in the Water: Seafood for a Sustainable Future.”
In fact, hope is something Zimmern said he still has for the planet. Despite the dangers facing the environment, he said there is still time to fix things.
“You remember Covid? I remember seeing the news and seeing all these pictures of the River Seine in Paris, the Thames in London, the Venetian lagoons. They were crystal clear. Just two years after things looked dead, now they were vibrant, alive and working. Nature is very resilient. We’re in trouble and we have to act immediately, but it’s not dead yet,” he said.
Although Charleston is lucky enough to have easy access to fresh fish, Zimmern said even frozen fish is a good bet because large grocery chains have gotten on board with providing sustainably-raised seafood.
“People will buy frozen chicken at the
store, but (frozen) fish is presumed guilty,” he said. “Whether it’s wild or farmed, fresh or frozen, the biggest question is whether it was reasonably sourced and how it was handled. You can go to the dock and buy sustainable fish that hasn’t been handled well, and you can go to the supermarket and buy frozen farmed fish that was handled immaculately.”
Zimmern said consumers should take advantage at large grocery store chains of seafood experts who can answer questions about where the fish came from, how to cook it or what to substitute if the fish in a recipe is unavailable.
Zimmern also will present a Nov. 15 seminar alongside Chubby Fish owner James London on cooking crudo for the home cook.
“I think James London is one of the most talented chefs working today. We’re going to teach people that you can use the meat you scrape off the bones after a filet and the meat behind the head. Add some acid, some fat and some crunch, and you have a delicious crudo,” he said.
But Zimmern says his philanthropic work is what nourishes him.
“I’m addicted to making change. I like the action,” he said. “Once you help pass a law, once you help to make someone’s world a little bit better, guess what, you realize it’s a pretty powerful drug in and of itself. Helping people is in and of itself the most vital and important reason we are put on Planet Earth.”
Brewery eats. Munkle Brewing Company recently announced a partnership with Mi Xao, the Vietnamese eatery led by Chef Anh Toan Ho. Guests will enjoy Mi Xao’s comfort food such as pho, banh mi, dumplings and rice bowls inside Munkle’s taproom. The menu is available from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesdays through Thursdays and from 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. More: munklebrewing.com

10th Kulture Klash blends big hair, Shepard Fairey, Run-DMC legend
By Maura Hogan
Big Hair Dave has a really big crane.
The 7.5-ton steel beast lurches through the sprawling raw square footage of Building 64 of the Navy Yard. David Brisacher, the follicly-endowed producer of the Kulture Klash also known as Big Hair Dave, is ready to deploy it to realize some seriously outsized art statements.
“We got it outfitted, so we’re utilizing that for this really cool massive Shepard Fairey piece,” he said in a recent interview.
On Nov. 22, Kulture Klash, the one-day arts festival known for pushing creative and physical bounds, will mount another height. It will reach the double digits with its 10th installment. The milestone promises to be an aesthetic whopper, too, gathering more than 100 visual artists and 20 high-flying musical acts and performance arts, along with pulse-quickening light shows and a crowd surging to as many as 5,000, who are as wide-ranging as the art is.
“Kulture Klash is a very unique mixture, combining all of the arts together, and in a really cool counterculture way where you have all sorts of visual artists, graffiti and every genre of musical artists, dance performances–like a full cultural explosion,” Brisacher said.

This year might be the most audacious since it let loose in the early 2000s. The brainchild of Scott Debus and Gustavo Serrano, they introduced the formula — a mashup of events all the rage in New York City and Miami. Then they brought on Brisacher, a member of the Charleston reggae band The Dubplates.
“We performed, and I also was the production provider, with all the crazy sound and lights and lasers and fun things like that in the early days,” said Brisacher, whose efforts spin out from his company Big Hair Productions. After the past loss of a venue, the festival

An opening reception launches the exhibition from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. Nov. 19, with exhibition up through Jan. 7. Gibbes Museum of Art, 135 Meeting St. More gibbesmuseum.org
THEATER
in recent years has focused mainly on popups while finding a new partner. Last year after landing a dream locale in Building 64 of the Navy Yard, the festival came back in full force.
“They were an amazing partner to let me run with turning the space into a really cool state-of- the-art event and concert venue,” said Brisacher, who has also produced events there such as Skinful Halloween.
With its vast terrain encompassing 38,000 square feet, Building 64 represents a rare creative canvas of its size for a Charleston arts festival. And it makes a big difference, he said, affording artists creative freedom to showcase their talents.
Those in the visual arts lineup often create works as big as 20-by-20 feet or some similarly towering art piece. Performance artists like Out On A Limb have made use of that massive crane in their feats of aerial artistry. Unbound Ballet, the contemporary ballet company that often performs sitespecific works of choreography, tackles the raw space in its own incentive ways.
Brisacher attributes scoring the ideal setting to the commitment of Navy Yard Charleston, a joint venture partnership with Jamestown, WECCO Development and Weaver Capital. It is developing the 79-acre mixed-use neighborhood near Park Circle to include 3.2 million square feet of office retail, restaurant and residential space — and envisions Building 64 as its cultural center.
The festival is permitted to paint murals on the walls, adding more with every installment and turning the space into a work of art itself. With those in place, artists are inspired to go bigger and bolder every year.
“I don’t think there could be a group
that’s more heavily invested in the cultural arts community, in making sure that it’s affordable for artists to be able to actually live and work and create in this area and to give so many opportunities to nonprofit organizations,” Brisacher said, adding props to the city of North Charleston, too.
All of this includes use of the crane, which this year is operative in an installation conceived by Shepard Fairey, arguably Charleston’s most celebrated homegrown artist provocateur.
“His art always has such a powerful message behind it, too,” Brisacher said of the work, which will be shown alongside a robust roster of visual artists of every style and subject matter.
Like the murals, the level of talent keeps topping itself. The 2025 musical lineup features celebrated artist DJ Z-Trip, who, as chance would have it, has in that past had his culture clash of sorts with Fairey, by way of an art and music mix tape called Vision and Sound
Then there’s a performer just about everybody will know: Darryl McDaniels, aka DMC, of Run-DMC.
“To see Kulture Klash post on RunDMC’s page is mind blowing,” said the artist. But his mind primed for such highflying moments, big hair notwithstanding.
IF YOU WANT TO GO: Kulture Klash is 6 p.m. to 2 a.m., Nov. 22 at Building 64, Navy Yard, 2301 Noisette Blvd., North Charleston. Tickets are $35 to $100. More: kultureklashchs.com

Members of Charleston’s Marshgrass Mamas say you shouldn’t expect a second album anytime soon
Charleston’s Marshgrass Mamas releases first album afer 25 years
By Vincent Harris
There are bands, and then there are institutions. And it’s probably about time we moved the Marshgrass Mamas into the “institution” category.
Eight women strong, the Marshgrass Mamas has been thriving for almost 25 years. A mix of deft acoustic playing, sweetand-sour vocal harmonies and a ton of laughter, the group has served as a tempto-permanent home for a variety of female Charleston musicians.
The current lineup features upright bass player Kristen Meierer, Cary Ann Hearst (of the popular Charleston duo Shovels & Rope) on guitar, Dolores Payne on banjo, Chandler Marburg on guitar and fiddle, Gina Perez on fiddle, Caitlin Cahill on banjolele (a combination banjo-ukulele), slide guitarist Skye Paige and guitarist Becca Smith.
It’s a one hell of a lineup with serious instrumental skills, rich vocal harmonies and songwriting chops galore. You can hear most of these players in their individual projects, bands like Admiral Radio, The Butterbeans and Yee Haw Junction, but the Mamas’ sound is something special.
And now, more than two decades into success, the band has its first album out. And it will perform again Dec. 6 at The Pour House.
So with all of the band’s gifts, why did it take the Marshgrass Mamas so long to make an album, aptly titled ’Bout Time?
“We call ourselves South Carolina’s most underachieving band,” Meierer said in a recent interview with the Charleston City Paper. “It took us 25 years to come up with our first recording, so yes, it’s about time.”
“Our intention is just to get together and have fun and play music together,” Hearst added. “But half the time, we’re just chatting. So when you chat half the time, you don’t get very much accomplished. We’ve been together for 25 plus years, and I think we’ve only done 15 years of work.”
That laid back, all-in-fun vibe runs through all eight tracks on ’Bout Time. In fact, the first track, “Just Havin’ Fun” sets the tone perfectly, a shaggy dog tale of a whirlwind romance that takes us south of
the border. The instruments chug along like classic up-tempo bluegrass, accented with deft group harmony vocals.
That tune leads into wistful ballads (“Find the Joy”), joyful picking sessions (“June Apple”) and “Laundry Sucks,” a quick bit of advice delivered with gospel flair: “Housework makes you ugly/And laundry sucks.”

“Some of those songs, we’ve had for years, and we’ve been asked to record them for years,” Meierer said with a laugh. “We finally just had to get them recorded so that people would stop bugging us.”
Specifically, there was one person who kept bugging the band to get its songs out: 11-time Grammy award-winning Americana singer/songwriter Brandi Carlile.
Carlile invited the Marshgrass Mamas to perform at her “Girls Just Wanna Weekend,” last year, an all-inclusive, fourday vacation event in Mexico that features music by female and non-binary artists. Once she heard its songs, she was insistent that the band make a record.
“Brandi Carlile said, ‘You HAVE to go record something,’ ” Hearst said. “’You need five songs on Spotify or something. You need to get your shit together.’ Well, that’s an approximation of what she said.”
“When Brandi Carlile tells you to record an album, you’ve got to do it,” Meierer said. “Especially if it involves going back to an all-inclusive resort in Mexico.”
Hearst said in addition to finally releasing an album, she’s noticed the band has begun to influence the next generation of female Charleston musicians.
“Now we’ve got these girls we call the Marsh Grass Minis,” she said. “And they can pick circles around us. They are forming their own little groups and supporting each other through music. So, I love that. We inspired other girls.”
Having said all of that, Meierer is quick to add that you shouldn’t be expecting a second Marshgrass Mamas album anytime soon. IF YOU WANT TO GO: The Marshgrass Mamas plays two shows on Dec. 6. Doors open at noon for the 1 p.m. show and 5 p.m. for the 6 p.m. show. Pour House, 1977 Maybank Hwy., Charleston. $17-$20. charlestonpourhouse.com
