My Old Kentucky Podcast

Adrielle Camuel joined Robert and Allison Wiseman this week. They spoke about why she decided to run for this office, the process of her selection and the fallout, and what she hopes to be able to accomplish in Frankfort.
Prior to the interview, Allison recapped the two debates that happened last week, and Robert talked about the UAW strike coming to Kentucky.

Sierra Enlow was kind enough to call Robert and discuss her run for Commissioner of Agriculture. She had a lot to say about why she was running, who she's been meeting, and why she's the most qualified candidate for the job.

Kim Reeder is the Democratic candidate for Auditor of Public Accounts and she spoke to us about why she is running, her incredible story, and her background (which may make her the most qualified person to ever run for the office). Before the interview, Allison Wiseman and Robert spoke about the recent Kentucky Family Foundation policy conference and the different anti-trans mailers making their way to mailboxes across the state.

No guest this week, but Robert and Jazmin talked about an update in the 8-year saga of the disappearance of Crystal Rogers, which just saw it's first arrest. Then, the pair discussed some drama in the special election in House District 93.

This week we welcomed Sebastian Kitchen, the executive director of the Kentucky Democratic Party, to the show. He told us about all the efforts the party is undertaking to reelected Andy Beshear and elect other Democrats this year, about next year's election, and about the next party reorganization. It was a great conversation!
Before that, we talked about the upcoming potential UAW strike and how it might impact Kentucky and talked about several other small stories.

Dr. Tina Bojanowski is a JCPS teacher and member of the Kentucky House of Representatives, so we asked her on to talk to us about JCPS's recent issues with bussing. She shared with us about her experience this year as a legislator and teacher as well as her history with the district and how Frankfort is likely to intervene in JCPS in the coming session.
Before that, Robert and Jazmin discussed Louisville's recent homeless encampment clearings and the ethics trial of Louisville Metro Councilmember Anthony Piagintini.
