The economy is reopening — Are you excited or not?

from Access Louisville · host Louisville Business First

The economy is reopening — now is that a good thing or not?We talk about it on this week's episode of the Access Louisville podcast. Reporters Marty Finley and Haley Cawthon are on the show this week. Finley has been closely following government restrictions and reopening plans in Kentucky and in Indiana. Cawthon has been keeping close tabs on our restaurant businesses, which have suffered a great deal during this crisis. We go over when and how government restrictions are being lifted in each state and what retailers and restaurants think about it.We also chat about how we feel personally about the restrictions being lifted. Will we be the first in line when restaurants finally open their doors? Later in the show, Cawthon tells us how big restaurant chain earnings are looking, specifically those at Yum Brands Inc., Texas Roadhouse Inc. and Papa Johns International Inc. And we give some shoutouts to restaurants that have been crushing the delivery and takeaway game in recent weeks.We also chat about our travel plans for the year. This might be the year that Digital Editor David Mann takes a short trip to Brown County Indiana for vacation. Better than taking a plane somewhere right?Access Louisville is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First. If you like what you hear please consider subscribing on popular podcast services.
