The temporary closure of The Dirty Bird restaurant — which has struggled to obtain a liquor license — tops this week's Access Louisville podcast.

The Audubon neighborhood restaurant has garnered attention in part because of the suggestive names on its menu — the appetizers are referred to as "foreplay" and the fish sandwich is called "the hooker," for instance.

Fred Pizzonia, the property owner and manager of The Dirty Bird, told LBF Restaurant Reporter Michael L. Jones that a state ABC representative has complained about the names and he believes it to be a factor in the liquor license issue. We discuss that with Jones on this week's episode.

Jones also tells us about a new restaurant in New Albany with a well known local name — Falls City Kitchen. It's owned by Neace Ventures, the same company that owns Falls City Beer and a few other local food and beverage brands.

We also hear from Reporter Stephen P. Schmidt about the latest with this year's Kentucky Bourbon Festival in Bardstown, Kentucky. The festival is adding new experiences, as it takes inspiration from the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas as well as the PGA Championship and the Kentucky Derby. Full details on that here.

We also hear from our sponsors at Baird this week. LBF President and Publisher Lisa Benson is on the show with an interview with Mark Nickel, who is president and chief investment officer at Baird Trust to talk about numerous topics, including what's known as "The Great Wealth Transfer."
