Rick Howlett

LOUISVILLE PUBLIC MEDIA News-Talk WFPL/LOUISVILLE will launch a new weekly talk show, “In Conversation with RICK HOWLETT,” on FRIDAYS at 11a, starting JANUARY 18th. The hour-long show, hosted by veteran broadcast journalist RICK HOWLETT, features discussions with a variety of guests about the issues facing the city, state, and region. 

“There’s a lot going on in LOUISVILLE, but right now there’s nowhere the community can come together to discuss major issues,” WFPL Dir./News and Programming ERICA PETERSON said. “That’s where ‘In Conversation’ comes in. The show will give people a space to talk — both to each other, and with the larger community.”

The JANUARY 18th debut will ask, "Have we reached peak bourbon?" Industry insiders will discuss the future of KENTUCKY's booming bourbon industry. A week later, KENTUCKY Education Commissioner Dr. WAYNE LEWIS will delve into charter schools, the state intervention at JEFFERSON COUNTY PUBLIC SCHOOLS and education-related legislation in the 2019 KENTUCKY General Assembly.
