Hey folks, it’s Laura Ellis, with SoA. We’re back to live shows this week after some time away for the holiday, and here’s what’s coming up.
To keep us in the holiday spirit, today we’ll be talking today about bourbon! Bourbon historian Mike Veach joins us, along with local food & drink mavens Susan Reigler and Joy Perrino, who co-authored The Kentucky Bourbon Cocktail Book.
Tomorrow we’re tackling a somewhat more nebulous topic: the concept of justice. We’ll be looking at it from a philosophical perspective, with political philosopher and Harvard professor Michael Sandel. He’s in town with the Kentucky Author Forum to talk about his book Justice: What’s the Right Thing to Do?
We all complain about it – and these guys get the brunt of the complaining. Meteorologists Jay Cardosi and John Belski join us on Wednesday to give us an overview of what we can expect weather-wise this winter, and into next year.
Bordeaux, France; Tuscany, Italy; Napa Valley, California… Paducah, Kentucky? That’s right, there are more than 50 wineries in our own Commonwealth, producing around 200,000 gallons of vino each year. On Thursday we’ll learn more about Kentucky’s wineries and vineyards.
Then on Friday, we’ll round things out with our State of the News show, and invite you to comment on this week’s stories and headlines.
