Middle of Everywhere, "a narrative podcast of WKMS public radio" focuses on "big stories from the small places we call home."

In this episode, hosts Ariel Lavery and Austin Carter discuss a university student prank that blew up when local law enforcement officials defied their open records duties on multiple occasions, refusing to disclose public records relating to the incident.

Lavery and Carter examine the story through the eyes of WKMS news director, Rachel Collins, who refuses to take "no" for an answer, and Kentucky Open Government Coalition co-director and retired Assistant Attorney General Amye Bensenhaver, who never ceases to be amazed by the law enforcement agency presumption favoring secrecy.
