“I’ve never lived in the city, but I visit more than any sane person should, and most of the fun things outside of the French Quarter I’ve learned about from Mark and his amazing guests. Hugely recommend this to anyone with even a passing interest in the city or its history!”

I’ve been visiting New Orleans since 1997 and there so many places still to uncover.
Keep up the great work, I didn’t see it in the archives but it would be great to hear an episode on the history of the Jazz Fest poster and all the great artist.”
