Real stakes.
Good company.

“The name comes from insurance. The stories go everywhere.”
Portrait of First Party host Bart Denham

Founder. Attorney. Host.

Builder, advocate,
and your host.

J. Bart Denham is the founder and principal attorney of Denham Property and Injury Law. A Lexington native, he earned a BBA in Marketing and a J.D. from the University of Kentucky's Rosenberg College of Law.

Inspired by his grandfather's 52-year legal career, Bart moved from in-house counsel into property-loss litigation before building his own firm to advocate for people facing property loss and personal injury.

Outside work, Bart cheers for the Kentucky Wildcats, runs local road races as a former Division I track-and-field athlete, and spends time with his Standard Poodle.

Bring the story behind the story.

The best guests have built, been tested, and can play.

First Party is for people with something honest to say about work, risk, recovery, and what matters. Every interview is prepared for the person - not just the résumé.

No ambushes. No manufactured controversy. No requirement to drink.
