Fantastic and engaging!

I am really enjoying this podcast. Really appreciate the level of detail, the selection of anecdotes, as well as how the podcaster fills in what’s going on in the world at different periods and how it affects New Orleans.
Good production and just overall a pleasure to listen to. Learning a ton!
