This week we’ll start things off by looking back on the week that was at Valhalla Golf Club for the 106th PGA Championship. We had a team of reporters and photographers out there (including yours truly) on the course for every day of the tournament.

Piper Hansen will talk about what she encountered at the course on Friday after news broke about the fatality of a security guard and the subsequent arrest of Scottie Scheffler, the No. 1 ranked golfer in the world.

We’ll also talk about the latest from the footage that was recently released involving Scheffler and one of the detectives from the Louisville Metro Police Department.

I will also share a story about what I encountered at Valhalla on Tuesday when — like on Friday — stormy weather jumbled up the planned schedule.

We will also talk about Valhalla’s chances of playing host to another PGA Championship or another major championship golf tournament.

Michael L. Jones will conclude the podcast with a round of interesting stories that he has come across on the restaurant beat, beginning with the “cookie caper” involving Please & Thank You and the 150th Kentucky Derby.

Michael will also talk about closing of a popular bar in the Highlands and the opening of a bakery in Germantown.
