Go Atlanta: Goodbye Officer Don, plant-based restaurant option, Formula One-themed bar
If you grew up in Atlanta, you may remember the children’s TV show, “Officer Don and The Popeye Club”. In this episode of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s newest podcast, Go Atlanta, we remember the iconic host, Don Kennedy, who passed away at the age of 93.
Rodney Ho has the latest on the changes at Turner Classic Movies and the commitment Warner Bros. Discovery are making to the network. Plus, hear about the CNN show, "See It Loud: The History of Black Television" featuring AJC’s Ernie Suggs and Rodney Ho.
Ligaya Figueras has new restaurant openings, including the plant-based restaurant Planta, now open in Krog Street Market and the Formula One-themed Dryver Bar in Buckhead. Ligaya will also introduce you to Aaron Harris, the owner of Molino Tortilleria which specializes in heirloom and organic corn products.
