I have to go from Little Rock to the Columbus, OH

Sorry to hear that part

Here is a suggestion

Little Rock to Nashville via interstate
Nashville north to BG Parkway
BG Parkway to Lexington
Lexington to Cincinnati
Cincinnati to Columbus

BG Parkway is low traffic and it take you right past Bardstown - where several bourbon distilleries are - and ends in Versailles - home of more distilleries. If you want to make slight trip west at Versailles you can hit Frankfort distilleries. The upside of BG parkway is there is never much traffic for a highway like road so it is easy and relaxing.

Some other points :
Corvette Museum is halfway between Nashville and BG Parkway
Lexington is more scenic drive than Louisville
Cincinnati means stops at Graters (ice cream), Skyline (coneys), and Little Kings (ale) triple play!

I have family that drives from Hot Springs to Louisville and they usually drive 64 to 57 to 55 to West memphis then 40 into LR. Not as fond of that drive and few places to stop but they like it as they like to speed and that stretch between Memphis and Nashville is one of the worst speed traps in the USA.
