We've got a three-course meal on this week's edition of the Access Louisville podcast.

First off, we talk with Special Sections and Research Editor Allison Stines about what stood out to her the most about our most recent Business Women First luncheon in Downtown Louisville — including the best piece of advice she heard out of all of our honorees. We will also talk with Reporter Piper Hansen about the event's guest speaker, Kristel Bauer.

After that, we continue our chat with Piper about a new apartment complex, The Bend, a $50 million project in Clarksville, Indiana, that recently celebrated its ribbon cutting. Hansen will also provide an update on the zoning issues that are affecting readers in Kentucky — and some insight into the ongoing political back-and-forth between Gov. Andy Beshear and the General Assembly in Frankfort.

We close out the segment with the latest on the restaurant beat with Reporter Michael L. Jones about the story behind the Black Rabbit, a poplar bar and eatery in St. Matthews. Michael will provide the backstory on how the former owner Jared Fox Matthews has decided to sell the business to a group that includes his longtime general manager, Sherman Lewis.

Michael will also talk about two establishments located in the same area of the Highlands: Dad’s Coffee, which is closing its doors after only being open for two years, and the Dundee Tavern, a place known for its “Dundee Dip” that is in the process of being converted into a Derby City Pizza.
