Courier Journal reporter Jason Frakes and handicapper Ed DeRosa of Horse Racing Nation join this episode of The C.L. Brown Show on location at Churchill Downs to preview the 151st Kentucky Derby. (The video version is available on YouTube.) Frakes explains that while Journalism is the favorite, there are reasons to nitpick at if he can win the Run for the Roses. He also tells why Coal Battle is his dark-horse pick. DeRosa breaks down other contenders, including Sovereignty and Rodriguez, and discusses the value in taking Chunk of Gold as a long shot.

This episode is a fan favorite that was originally published as Episode 476. We hope that you have a happy and safe holiday!When musician Bobby Mackey opened Bobby Mackey's Music World in 1978, he had hoped for nothing more than to open a small nightclub where audiences could enjoy the traditional country music he had devoted his life to for decades. Yet before the club was even opened, it was apparent to Bobby, his wife Janet, and manager Carl that whatever the new night club was going to be, it would be anything but normal.In the decades since it opened, Bobby Mackey's Music World has gained a reputation, not just as a one of Kentucky's enduring country western clubs, but as one of America's supposedly most haunted locations. Indeed, Bobby Mackey's is said to be the home of several spirits whose lives revolved around, and in some cases ended on the property, including the ghosts of a lovesick showgirl, a headless pregnant woman, and the two Satan-worshipping men who took her head.Thank you to the glorious David White for research assistance :)ReferencesAssociated Press. 1978.

On this week's program, your host, Justin Mog, takes a stroll through Louisville's historic downtown neighborhoods with Steve Wiser of the Louisville Historical League (https://louisvillehistoricalleague.org) & Martina Kunnecke from Neighborhood Planning & Preservation. We discuss the important role of historic preservation and neighborhood planning in shaping a more sustainable future for our city and we take a deep dive into the future of the Urban Government Center in Paristown Pointe between Barret and Vine Streets, north of Breckinridge. Steve Wiser published and excellent Op-Ed in the Courier-Journal on August 7th, 2024, entitled: "The Urban Government Center project was supposed to be a community asset. What happened? The city is permitting this developer to use taxpayer funds to eliminate blight that the city itself created." Vacant since 2016, there have been three redevelopment proposals for the Urban Government Center (also known as the old Baptist Hospital site). The first ended in 2019, the second at the end of 2020, and now the third (with Upper Paristown Pointe Trust) has been dragging out for the past two and a half years. Resident input, which was part of the community review process as required by the Request For Proposals (RFP), has been significantly reduced when many residents did not agree with UPPT's major changes. Thus, most of the surrounding neighborhood residents are not happy campers. Instead of UPPT starting construction on its 2020 RFP proposal in 2022, the city has allowed UPPT to continue to revise its proposal to where it no longer meets most of the minimum required guidelines of the RFP. Thus, far, the city refuses to 'listen' to the residents and implement what the residents want. An overwhelming majority of the residents want to save the open green space, part of the original hospital, a library, grocery, play area, etc. As always, our feature is followed by your community action calendar for the week, so get your calendars out and get ready to take action for sustainability NOW!

But like other members of this unfortunate club, Mia Zapata didn't die as the result of a drug overdose or by her own hand.  She was murdered on the streets of Seattle just before she reached success with her band, The Gits.     In this episode, I'll detail the life, death, and lasting legacy of Mia Zapata.   Resources:  Mia Zapata and The Gits: A Story of Art, Rock, and Revolution, Steve Moriarty, (2024) https://amzn.to/3T2cjgv  https://www.shondaland.com/inspire/a44362322/a-cross-between-janis-joplin-and-johnny-rotten-remembering-mia-zapata-of-the-gits/ https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/mia-zapata-murderer-dead-1170206/ https://web.archive.org/web/20130406042509/http://thegits.com/?page_id=410 https://www.seattlepi.com/seattlenews/article/singer-s-killer-gets-37-years-1143741.php “Mia: Mia Zapata left her Louisville roots for a shot at success with her band, The Gits.

On this week's program, your host, Justin Mog, takes a stroll along the Ohio River with Kristin Faurest, the new President and CEO of River Fields (https://riverfields.org/). For over 65 years, River Fields has worked to protect, preserve and enhance the natural and cultural resources, including agricultural and scenic resources, on both sides of the Ohio River between Westport and West Point, Kentucky, for the benefit of the public. Read the Courier-Journal's interview with Kristen Faurest at https://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/local/2024/07/25/river-fields-leader-kristin-faurest-takes-helm-of-ohio-river-group/74270962007/ River Fields does several things: advocacy, conservation, and education – all around the river, its lands, and the people who depend upon them. The organization has gained national respect for its effective, professionally maintained program of advocacy, which works hand-in-hand with a land conservation program. For decades, they have advocated for the protection of land and water resources in balance with responsible growth in the region. River Fields supports planned development, growth management, greater public access, environmental and historic preservation, the enhancement of scenic views, urban design, and transportation reform. One of River Fields' primary goals is to provide education on the importance of the river, the cultural and natural resources of the river corridor, public access needs, and open space protection as well as growth issues that might jeopardize these resources. To accomplish this goal, they provide vital information to, and work closely with, local citizen's organizations, decision makers, and the news media. One of the organization's recent advocacy issues was to stop a planned barge repair facility at the foot of six mile island that would have jeopardized a nesting area for bald eagles and also potentially endanger our water supply. They have also educated members of the legal community about conservation easements, the National Historic Preservation Act, and the Safe Drinking Water Act through continuing education seminars at the Louisville Bar Association. River Fields has worked successfully with landowners and supporters to preserve thousands of acres of beautiful open space, productive farms, diverse woodlands and unique wetlands along the Ohio River Corridor and Watershed. They own 13 river corridor properties outright, totaling over 65 acres. Their largest property, Garvin Brown Preserve in Prospect, is open to the public every day from dawn to dusk. In addition, they hold conservation easements that restrict the development rights to 17 additional properties in Jefferson and surrounding counties. These easements protect more than 2,172 acres of land that is important to the public, including sensitive wetlands and watersheds, beautiful scenic vistas, wildlife habitats, historical properties and landscapes, and working farms. In total, River Fields has protected over 2,200 acres of land forever. As always, our feature is followed by your community action calendar for the week, so get your calendars out and get ready to take action for sustainability NOW! Sustainability Now! is hosted by Dr. Justin Mog and airs on Forward Radio, 106.5fm, WFMP-LP Louisville, every Monday at 6pm and repeats Tuesdays at 12am and 10am.

Yet before the club was even opened, it was apparent to Bobby, his wife Janet, and manager Carl that whatever the new night club was going to be, it would be anything but normal.In the decades since it opened, Bobby Mackey's Music World has gained a reputation, not just as a one of Kentucky's enduring country western clubs, but as one of America's supposedly most haunted locations. Indeed, Bobby Mackey's is said to be the home of several spirits whose lives revolved around, and in some cases ended on the property, including the ghosts of a lovesick showgirl, a headless pregnant woman, and the two Satan-worshipping men who took her head.Thank you to the glorious David White for research assistance :)ReferencesAssociated Press. 1978.
