Kentucky’s retail shakeup: What’s closing next?

Big changes are hitting Kentucky’s shopping scene in 2026, and it’s more than just a few empty storefronts. Discount staples like Big Lots are pulling out of Lexington, Louisville, and western towns, leaving folks with fewer affordable options for furniture and basics. In Louisville’s neighborhoods, Family Dollar closures mean families have to travel farther for everyday essentials—especially tough for those without cars. Even pharmacies like Walgreens are quietly disappearing, making it harder for older residents to get prescriptions. With Jefferson Mall fighting to stay relevant, it feels like the whole retail landscape is shifting. How is this changing your shopping habits? #Business #LocalBusiness #Kentucky

Kentucky’s new hope for lung cancer fighters

A breakthrough at the University of Kentucky could change the game for people battling small cell lung cancer. Doctors at Markey Cancer Center just treated the first U.S. patient with a new immunotherapy drug, ZG006, that’s designed to help the body’s own immune system hunt down and destroy cancer cells—even those that have spread to the brain. For Kentuckians, where lung cancer rates are among the highest in the nation, this could mean more years with loved ones and a real shot at beating a tough disease. How do you feel about cutting-edge treatments coming to our community first? #Health #BodyHealth #Kentucky

LSU women stunned by Kentucky’s last-second 3

The Tigers were outmuscled on the glass, pulling down only four offensive boards to Kentucky’s 17—a stat that made all the difference. With LSU now facing four of their next five games on the road, how do you think they’ll bounce back from this heartbreak? #Sports #LSU #Kentucky
