Think Mardi Gras begins and ends on Bourbon Street? We hit the road to map the best celebrations across Texas—Galveston's towering floats and nighttime crowds, Beaumont's growing footprint with room for families, Texas City's daytime routes, Seguin's golf cart charm, and San Antonio's Fiesta Texas makeover that turns the whole park purple, green, and gold. We also spotlight the small-town sparkle of Jefferson and Alvin, then head waterside for Kema, where lit-up boats parade past the boardwalk and the vibe walks the line between festive and family-friendly.Road trips need the right ride, so we put real miles on the 2026 Mazda CX-50 Meridian Edition. Expect crisp styling, an interior that puts the driver in command, and standout handling that outperforms most compact SUVs. The 2.5-liter turbo brings usable power and confidence without drama, though the flat roof rack looks overbuilt and the infotainment system needs a rethink. We share observed mpg, pricing context, and how it stacks up against segment staples like the Honda CR-V, Toyota RAV4, and Nissan Rogue so you can decide what matters most: grip, comfort, or fuel spend.To cap it off, we nerd out on muscle car station wagons that should have been factory legends. From Ford Torino and Chevy Chevelle cousins to Oldsmobile Vista Cruiser, Pontiac Tempest, and Dodge Coronet platforms, we break down why these long-roof builds make the perfect blend of nostalgia, utility, and torque. Whether you're planning a family-friendly parade crawl or sketching your dream resto-mod wagon, this ride has you covered with routes, reviews, and a little righteous rumble.If you enjoy the show, follow, rate, and share it with a friend who loves parades, road trips, or great cars—and tell us which Texas Mardi Gras stop you're hitting next.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Kieran Walsh shares the path from wine and High West to Big Easy Whiskey and why he designed an 86 proof pour that opens on ice, thrives in a toddy, and avoids sugary shortcuts.• philosophy of enhancing whiskey rather than masking it• used cooperage to balance oak and highlight grain character• infusion set including baking spices, citrus peel, and green herbs• how hydrophobic compounds bloom with water and heat• positioning beyond the “flavored whiskey” category• New Orleans as flavor inspiration and brand home base• distribution focus on Louisiana with planned regional growth• future expressions and bourbon releases teased• simple cocktails: big easy hot toddy and absinthe pairing ideasListen, like, subscribe, leave good feedback, especially on AppleGive us a five-star review, pleaseYou can become a member and also join our PatreonWhat if American whiskey could be lifted, not lacquered? We sit down with master blender and COO Kieran Walsh of Big Easy Spirits to unpack a five-year whiskey aged in used cooperage and layered with precise infusions—baking spices, citrus peels, and verdant herbs—that amplify what whiskey already does well. No cloying sweetness, no camouflage, just a thoughtfully built 86 proof pour that blooms on ice, hums in a hot toddy, and reshapes what “flavored” can mean without losing its whiskey core.Kieran's journey runs from wine production and restrained oak philosophy to High West's blending lab, where the idea of barrel-aged cocktails and Amaro architecture took root. That background shows in every decision: used barrels keep the oak in line, botanicals track existing whiskey notes rather than fighting them, and the proof point preserves structure in cocktails while staying approachable neat. We explore how hydrophobic compounds unlock aroma with water and heat, why category rules forced a new lane beyond “flavored whiskey,” and how New Orleans—more gumbo than single note—became both muse and proving ground.We also get practical. Expect serving ideas from a minimalist Bourbon Street hot toddy (just whiskey and hot water) to an absinthe-kissed riff worthy of the Old Absinthe House. Kieran shares distribution plans rooted in local love first, then careful expansion to Texas, the Florida panhandle, Mississippi, California, and more. He teases future releases, including older base stocks with alternate infusions and two bourbons waiting in tank—early tasters' reactions ranged from “holy shit” to wide-eyed silence.If you're curious about whiskey innovation, botanical infusions, New Orleans cocktail culture, and how to bridge the gap between purist pours and sugar-heavy flavor bombs, this one's for you.

In the days leading up to Thanksgiving 2025, the family and friends of 59-year-old Daniel Davis began to grow increasingly concerned. Dan was known as deeply reliable. His coworkers couldn't even remember him missing a single day of work in decades. Much of Dan's life revolved around his job at 115 Bourbon Street, a well-known music venue in Merrionette Park, Illinois, a southwest suburb just outside the city of Chicago.They soon learned that Dan had been involved in a car accident late on the night of Monday, November 24. After the crash, Dan was dropped off at his workplace, where he walked inside and briefly greeted the two remaining coworkers. In the early morning hours of November 25, Dan was seen walking away from 115 Bourbon Street.Once Dan's loved ones learned about the accident, questions immediately followed. Where was he, and why wasn't he answering calls or text messages? Had Dan sought medical attention afterward? As hours passed without contact, it became clear that something was wrong. Dan was reported missing to the Chicago Police Department, and surveillance footage began to surface.Almost immediately, they noticed something troubling. The surveillance footage was bizarre, but it didn't clearly point to what had happened or where Dan might have gone. When they entered his apartment, they found items left in a manner out of character, deepening the confusion rather than providing answers. The final known surveillance video of Dan was recorded on Wednesday, November 26, around 6:30 p.m. Dan was seen exiting a church in Blue Island, Illinois, a community just south of Chicago. After that moment, Dan Davis vanished without a trace.Despite exhaustive search efforts by law enforcement, family, friends, and volunteers, no further confirmed sightings or answers have emerged. Nearly two months later, what happened to Dan Davis remains a mystery.If you have any information about the disappearance of Dan Davis, please contact the Chicago Police Department Area 2 Special Victims Unit at (312) 747-8274.If you have a missing loved one that you would like to have featured on the show, please fill out our case submission form.Follow The Vanished on social media at:FacebookInstagramPatreonSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
On this episode of the HOZ Comedy Podcast with Joey, the crew kicks off with Chicago sports talk, questionable betting decisions, and Joey explaining his painted nails, setting the tone for another unpredictable ride. The crew makes a major announcement about the new open mic at 115 Bourbon Street, giving comics something big to look forward to. From there, things spiral into comedy gold as the hosts riff on virtual boos, mega-church culture, and the absurdity of modern entertainment. The conversation jumps from Drewski's skits to the idea of adult puppet movies, proving no topic is too weird for the table. The episode wraps with reactions to football losses, nostalgia for arcades like Arc Raiders, and a bizarre detour into a burnt peanut streamer moment before reminding listeners to pull up to the open mic and subscribe. Funny, chaotic, and very Chicago-like, this one feels like a hang you didn't know you needed.
Headlines The first Best Damn Audio of the new year, featuring the “Bourbon St Gravy” and some old people who can't seem to nail the take

This hour, Ian Hoch talks about a study that says that cheeseburgers knock 9 minutes off your life, and the official Homeland Security Twitter (X) account posted an odd fascist-esque meme. Then, Ian speaks with Joey DiFatta, a member of the French Quarter Terrorism Attack Memorial Commission, about the future of the "Second Line in the Sky."

“Can I come home?”That's all Graham Allen could bring himself to text his wife after walking out on her while she was pregnant with their third child. He was a combat veteran, a serial drinker, a “degenerate husband” by his own words… and a man on the brink of repeating his father's story.In this raw, unfiltered conversation with Josh McPherson, Graham shares:How a heavy metal concert on Bourbon Street confronted him with the pain he was about to cause his own kidsThe night he sat hidden in a church balcony, broke down, and heard one clear word: “Text her”The four-word text that changed everything: “Can I come home?”Why he says he's “too abrasive for the pulpit but too important to ignore”The real story behind Dear America, his viral truck rants, and billions of viewsWhy he insists, “I'm not a good man. Any good you see is Jesus.”A direct challenge to men to put the bottle down, stop texting that other person, and go homeThis isn't a polished Christian fairytale. It's a story of church hurt, bad decisions, divorce papers on the table, PTSD, pride, and a wife who chose obedience to God over the world's advice.If you're a man on the edge of walking away from your family… or someone who thinks you've gone too far to come back to God… this episode is for you.Support the showThanks for listening!

Keith Santangelo joins Wil in-studio to trace his journey from growing up in a Cajun-Italian butcher/grocery family in Baton Rouge to owning New York City restaurants, leading major restaurant groups, and now serving independents through AccessWave. They reminisce about Keith being one of Schedulefly's earliest customers, talk about the magic of independent restaurants as “third places” (with Seinfeld's diner as a touchstone), and unpack how the industry's resilience showed up during COVID. Keith walks through selling his Hell's Kitchen spots before the pandemic, stewarding scratch-kitchen concept Jose Tejas/Border Café through the shutdowns, then running operations and finance for Serafina's global group and navigating licensing vs franchising abroad. From there, he explains why he pivoted from opening more restaurants to building an insurance and benefits solution specifically for hospitality, bringing a “unreasonable hospitality” mindset to a traditionally cold, transactional world. Throughout, they dig into tech overload, the adoption gap between shiny features and what teams actually use, the power of real implementation support, and why everyone should work in a restaurant at least once. The episode lands on family, balance, and why serving independent restaurants still sits at the center of Keith's life and work. 10 Takeaways Hospitality in the DNA – Keith's love for small, family businesses started in his grandfather's meat market and grocery stores, where he quickly gravitated to the front-of-house and guests. Independent restaurants as “home base” – From Seinfeld's diner to neighborhood spots like Pie's Eye, they're the community living rooms where people gather, talk, and feel known. Early Schedulefly believer – Keith adopted Schedulefly around 2008 at Planet Hollywood, brought it to his own restaurants, and has stayed connected to Wil and the brand ever since. Owning and selling in NYC – He co-owned Bourbon Street Bar & Grill and Brazen Tavern in Hell's Kitchen, later selling—partly to be more present with family—and, unknowingly, just ahead of COVID. How deals actually get done – Restaurant valuations often center on a multiple of EBITDA plus lease/liquor-license realities, but in practice many sales hinge on relationships and trusted partners. COVID as a resilience test – At Jose Tejas/Border Café, a 100% dine-in scratch concept with zero to-go, the team reimagined operations from the ground up and came out stronger. Scaling with Serafina – Running ops and finance for a 22-unit, $100M+ Italian group taught Keith the complexity of global growth, including why international licensing can beat franchising. The tech adoption gap – Many operators pay for enterprise tools but use a fraction of the features; if you're only using 20% of the value, you shouldn't be paying 100% of the bill. Hospitality belongs in “boring” sectors – With AccessWave, Keith is importing restaurant-style hospitality into insurance and benefits, aiming to be a true partner, not just a broker. Family as the why – Behind all the big roles and decisions is Keith's desire to provide for and be present with his wife and four kids—while still serving an industry that “saved” so many lives.

The Lakers continued the road trip on Friday night, with their next stop headed to Bourbon Street as they met up with the New Orleans Hornets. And with a stop the next night in Milwaukee for the Lakers, it would have been nice to put away this game in the early moments. But each time the Lakers moved out to a double-digit lead, the Pelicans kept it close enough to make it interesting, until the LA put it all together late for a 118-104 victory in NBA Cup action. Tune in as the guys recap the game, and what they thought worked and didn't work coming off the lambasting in Oklahoma City. They give you an update on how Luka Doncic (24 points, 12 assists), Austin Reaves (31 points, 7 assists), and Deandre Ayton's (20 points, 16 rebounds) efforts played a key role in the Lakers' victory, and where the team stands in their NBA Cup pool. Plus, what happens next as they have a back-to-back coming on Saturday with a stop in Milwaukee as well.

Japan's political scene is changing—from new parties rising in visibility to historic moments in national leadership—so the Krewe is bringing you a timely crash course. Political analyst Tobias Harris (Founder & Principal of Japan Foresight) joins the pod to break down the foundations of Japan's government system, how it compares to the U.S., and why voters view politics the way they do.

Tobias also sheds light on the media's role in shaping public perception and political accountability.------ About the Krewe ------The Krewe of Japan Podcast is a weekly episodic podcast sponsored by the Japan Society of New Orleans.

im and Todd sit down for their annual "Bourbon on the Banks" wrap-up show, joined by two key figures behind the successful event, Diane Strong and Renee True. As longtime listeners and friends of the show, Diane and Renee dive deep into a "postmortem" of the 2025 festival, discussing its record-breaking successes, logistical challenges, and plans for the future, all while tasting a couple of the event's exclusive barrel picks. The tasting kicks off with the Pursuit United Bourbon on the Banks Pick, a 108-proof bourbon finished with a unique tobacco stave. Todd, Diane, and Renee, who were all part of the large selection team, reflect on their choice, noting that the crowd-pleasing "sweet" and "smooth" profile made it a winner. The pour is rich with notes of sweet pipe tobacco, caramel, and a distinct chocolaty, candy-like quality. The group discusses the massive success of the festival's single-barrel pick program, which featured 11 or 12 different selections this year. Many, like the Bluegrass and Chicken Cock picks, sold out quickly. They also highlight the "rock star" quality of the picking teams, which often included a mix of industry professionals and highly knowledgeable consumers, ensuring a high standard across the board. Diane and Renee share insights into the festival's record-breaking year. The Friday night VIP event, which celebrated "Women in Bourbon," was a huge success. The event's auction was a standout, raising over $22,000 for local charities. Attendance for the main festival hit a new high, selling out a full month in advance and welcoming over 300 more attendees than the previous year. The tiered ticket structure (Special Access, Early Access, General Admission, and Twilight) was successful, and due to positive feedback, the event may be extended by an hour in 2026. The second pour comes with a fantastic backstory: the Dark Arts Bourbon on the Banks 2024 Pick. Due to a distributor mix-up, this 7.5-year-old bourbon, finished in Tokai wine casks, was mistakenly absent from the 2024 festival. The bottles were held in a warehouse for a year and finally made their debut at the 2025 event. Jim, Todd, and Renee—who also selected this barrel—revisit their 113.24-proof pick, praising it as "dessert in a glass" with decadent notes of fig, sweet caramel, and deep, rich oak. The conversation covers the entire weekend, from the positive feedback on the Thursday night "Whiskey Thieves Kickoff" and "Bourbon Street on Broadway" to the packed after-party. A major logistical victory for 2025 was the permanent relocation of the local farmer's market, which previously conflicted with setup. This new freedom will allow the festival to start earlier next year. They also discuss attendee feedback, such as requests for lanyards and a mobile app, and the great community response to inviting more social media influencers and YouTubers to cover the event, which Diane notes helps shine a light on the smaller, craft distilleries that make the festival unique. Be sure to check out our private Facebook group, "The Bourbon Roadies" for a great group of bourbon loving people. You will be welcomed with open arms!

Some hauntings don't just cling to houses—they linger in the places people loved most. This is the terrifying and unforgettable story of a haunted bar in Leesville, Louisiana, where a ghost refused to leave the job she once dedicated her life to. Back in the 1970s, a young worker was hired to help renovate a run-down brick building that had once been a lively bar and disco. Its massive wooden bar had been hauled all the way from Bourbon Street in New Orleans, but the glamour was long gone. Rats ran across the shelves, drunks swore they saw things no one else could, and the air itself carried a strange energy. One night around 3:30 a.m., while painting the ceiling alone, the worker felt the unmistakable sensation of being watched. Turning his head, he saw an elderly woman in glasses, a green hat, and an old coat with a brooch. She smiled but said nothing. When he climbed down to approach her, she simply vanished. The haunting stopped after the renovations, as if the spirit had been released, proud to see the bar brought back to life. For 17 years, it remained the most popular bar in town. This is the story of the smiling woman in the green hat, the bar she refused to leave, and the proof that sometimes the dead still clock in for work. #HauntedBar #LouisianaGhostStory #LeesvilleHaunting #TrueGhostStory #HauntedPlaces #RealGhostStoriesOnline #GhostEncounter #BourbonStreetHaunting #SpiritSighting #ParanormalEncounter Love real ghost stories?
