In the spirit of this weekend (March 11-13, 2022), one-half of the remaining It's A Good Life, Babe podcast feels compelled to republish this episode, given a loathing of the St Patty's parade (over whiteness abundance, date rapey ness, plastics throws clogging our storm drainage system, etc) while by contrast loving the Second Line (multi-generational living culture, music, fashion, etc).

Plus some talk on Benson's Succession, Pels &amp; Saints, with some Jeff Duncan enmity sprinkled in.There are also John Fohl, Davis Rogan, Cousin Andy, Hirsh, Traci Birch, Rome Julien, Kenna Bra Sam, William Peck, and Fried Ribs shout-outs.

The Second Line Is Wonderful/  St. Patty's Parade Is Woeful Rerun Episode (OG Air Date March 2018)

In Part Two of the Wheel of Death reunion and remembrance show, the gang continues to spin the wheel and memorialize those deemed to pass on next.  The wheels get rattled with booze and dosing, and banter a little slurred, contentious and chirpy.  But such a good excuse to get together with the family that is our friend tribe while everyone remains with us; and to fondly remember those who are not. Permalink

Geoff &amp; Joel's Tales From New Orleans

I love everything about this podcast; the diverse subject matter with music as a through line, the politics, the pro-culture takes, the intelligence, the wit, the voices of the hosts, the courageous conversations and the education I continue to receive. I know what it means to miss New Orleans and this podcast has helped me assuage my saudade. For me, the single best moment of podcasting I’ve ever heard was the sound of rain pouring down in Gentilly through their open window on a recent podcast. So much love to these guys. Also, eff cancer.

2 months listening. Very Impressed.

Even for the ignorant sports fan, joels analysis will make you feel like an expert.
