In this week's L.A.M.E. Book Club episode, we dive into Crescent City chapters 61–70 and… whew. Sarah J. Maas really said, “What if we emotionally demolish them mid-book?” We talk through Bryce's brutal healing scene (aka peak “sweetheart” content from Hunt), the so-called Living Death punishment, and the absolutely unhinged reveal about Danika, synth, and what really happened to the pack. We also spiral about the Bone Quarter vs. the Sleeping City, rant about Hunt's Very Poor Life Choices at the river drug deal, and scream when Fury “liquid night” Axstar steps out of the shadows. Plus, we get into our crack theories about Viktoria the wraith, the glass box at the bottom of the sea, and how book 4 might drag us all into river chaos. All of that, plus Rosie the Riveter pep talks, Michael Bay cutaways, liquid death tangents, and a Patreon afterparty where we match Disney movies to book recs (and yes, we have thoughts about Zootopia 2).   Website→ https://www.lamebookclubpod.com/ Merch → https://www.lamebookclubpod.com/category/all-products Patreon → https://www.patreon.com/c/lamebcpod IG → https://www.instagram.com/lamebookclubpod/ Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/2exV4FVCLeN7mYfxcNs9cB?si=36805589642e442c Apple → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/l-a-m-e-book-club-podcast/id1703598706 PODCAST BUSINESS ENQUIRES: lamebcpodcast@gmail.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

We're back in Lunathion with so many theories, besties. In this episode we're breaking down Crescent City chapters 51–60: Bryce summoning Aidas (and that absolutely unhinged “let's fight a demon with a demon” logic), the planet contraption in the Autumn King's office and how it mirrors Rhys' in ACOSF, the mystery of Hel as its own planet, and what “find what is in between” could actually mean. We deep dive the synth drug + obsidian salt, Danika's secret crusade, Bryce's scar and grief, Hunt's most broken moment (shower scene!!), AND we spiral about Kelpies, nøkk folklore, Wicked parallels, Hadestown, and… shower temperatures.

In this episode, we're diving into Crescent City chapters 41–50, and things get WILD. We've got Jelly Jubilee's “toy box,” Kristallos demons in the sewers, Bryce and Hunt getting extra flirty (hi, almost-kiss ), and Sabine dropping a MASSIVE bombshell about Danika and the Horn. We also spiral into SJM multiverse theories (is Truth-Teller the missing knife?!), compare creepy sewer demons to the Valg, and absolutely lose our minds over the otter messenger. Plus: Nicholas Sparks x M. Night Shyamalan, the new Hunger Games trailer, Chad Michael Murray slander, and a little Thanksgiving sign-off.

Bryce breaks the Oracle, Hunt gets called Orion, and somehow we still find time to drag Sabine and confess Melissa thought Egypt was in Europe. In this episode we're diving into Crescent City chapters 31–40: Micah's super sketch boss moves, Hunt's doomed(?) Orion mythology parallels, the Oracle's terrifying warning about Bryce, murder maps on the ley lines, Luna's Horn theories, and why the Godslayer gun has us deeply concerned.

The sounds of New Orleans carry a mood that's both jubilant and deeply human; it dances and mourns in the same breath. It's the sound of the street parade meeting the juke joint: syncopated, earthy, and alive with horns, piano rolls, and that unmistakable backbeat shuffle. Unlike the more urban polish of Chicago blues or the rural cry of the Delta, New Orleans R&B has always felt like a conversation between the sacred and the profane, where gospel chords meet barroom swagger. Just beyond the Crescent City's lights, where the waters of the bayou take form, we've got the accordions and fiddles of the swamp, where there's humor, head and heartbreak woven into the DNA of the deep South. It is joyous and haunted, elegant and raw, as well as endlessly resilient. The music of New Orleans inspired an ethos — that music could be communal, unrestrained, and celebratory no matter the hardship. It taught America how to dance through its troubles, to find rhythm in resilience, and to turn sorrow into sound that still shakes the rafters and demands a communal dance to this day. This week's show raises the flag of the Crescent City and her environs with a rhythm and bayou romp!

We're back and diving into Crescent City chapters 21–30, and honestly… we might've just connected half the SJM universe. From Luna's Horn to the 8-pointed star, we're unpacking every theory — including whether Luna might actually be Deanna (yes, we went there). It's officially Christmas season in the L.A.M.E. Book Club household, Melissa's officially on baby watch, and somehow we still managed to spiral into Rhun's genetics, horn lore, and starborn chaos. It's fine. Everything's fine. Stick around for the after-party on Patreon where we break down the Regretting You movie, talk about Dave Franco's crying (or lack thereof), and announce our Fourth Wing coloring book giveaway.   Website→ https://www.lamebookclubpod.com/ Merch → https://www.lamebookclubpod.com/category/all-products Patreon → https://www.patreon.com/c/lamebcpod IG → https://www.instagram.com/lamebookclubpod/ Spotify → https://open.spotify.com/show/2exV4FVCLeN7mYfxcNs9cB?si=36805589642e442c Apple → https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/l-a-m-e-book-club-podcast/id1703598706 PODCAST BUSINESS ENQUIRES: lamebcpodcast@gmail.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

"The Hunter and the Alligator." ALL the hunters in a village killed many deer one winter, except one man. This one saw many deer. Sometimes he drew his bow and shot at them; yet they escaped.    Now this hunter had been away from his village three days. He had seen many deer; not one had he killed. On the third day, when the sun was hot over his head, he saw an alligator. Alligator was in a dry, sandy spot. He had had no water for many days. He was dry and shriveled.    Alligator said to the hunter, “Where can water be found?” The hunter said, “In that forest, not far away, is cold water.”    “I cannot go there alone,” said Alligator. “Come nearer. Do not fear.” The hunter went nearer, but he was afraid.    “You are a hunter,” said Alligator, “but all the deer escape you. Carry me into the water, and I will make you a great hunter. You shall kill many deer.”     The hunter was still afraid. Then he said, “I will carry you, but first I must bind you so that you cannot scratch me; and your mouth, so that you cannot bite me.”    So Alligator rolled over on his back and let the hunter bind him. He fastened his legs and mouth firmly. Then he carried Alligator on his shoulders to the water in the forest. He unfastened the cords and threw him in.    Alligator came to the surface three times. He said, “Take your bow and arrow and go into the woods. You will find a small doe. Do not kill it. Then you will find a large doe. Do not kill it. You will meet a small buck. Do not kill that. Then you will meet a large, old buck. Kill that.”    The hunter took his bow and arrow. Everything happened just as Alligator had foretold. Then he killed the large, old buck. So he became a very great hunter. There was always venison in his wigwam. This week in Louisiana history. November 1, 1966. New Orleans Saints become 16th NFL football team.

About the New Orleans based group Captain Buckels, a band made up of top A-list musicians who have backed many household names!  The majority of tracks on Hurry Up the debut album from "Captain Buckles" are funky, rockin' instrumentals written by guitarist Alexander Mallet: kickin', and organic. Captain Buckles takes risks, grooves and moves with powerful chemistry and a punk, irreverent attitude that prompts listeners to feel good to be human. "Bus Station Blues" and "Raindrops on Mardi Gras,” are soulful slinky tunes featuring masterful vocals by keys man Rob Davis. "This Time" is a rock ballad by a close friend of the group, Michael Darby.  After years of incubating, Captain Buckles has found its own trademark sound steeped in the grooves and funk of New Orleans and the elements that make American music emotionally moving and stylistically unique. The band jams hard while emphasizing musical exploration and dynamic subtlety, showing the inspiration from of icons like The Meters, Allman Brothers, and The Band but utilizing those influences to create a style all their own.  The members of Captain Buckles include New Orleans born-and-raised Rob Davis and Ezell Smith Jr., as well as Los Angeles transplant Smitti Supab, Pennsylvanian Phil Breen, who've both played professionally in the Crescent City for 13+ years. Florida ex-pat Alex Mallet is the newcomer of the crew having arrived a mere eight years ago. Before forming Captain Buckles, the members had performed with each other in various line-ups for years between touring as backing musicians with national and international acts like Eric Lindell, Samantha Fish, Russell Batiste, John "Papa" Gros, Glen David Andrews, and many others. They transitioned to working as a distinctive, butt-shaking unit all their own two years ago, a no-nonsense brotherhood of hard-working sidemen, championing good vibes and an intense love of music.  The recording of Hurry Up was funded in part by a grant from the Threadhead Cultural Foundation (https://www.thcfnola.org/.).   www.captainbucklesband.com. facebook.com/captainbucklesband. instagram.com/captainbucklesband. open.spotify.com/artist/3q8yPNmKITP14G9YOEnnrV. www.youtube.com/@captainbucklesband. music.apple.com/il/artist/captain-buckles/1758847494. www.amazon.com/music/player/artists/B0D9WR9Y79/captain-buckles. captainbucklesband.bandcamp.com   About Music Matters with Darrell Craig Harris The Music Matters Podcast is hosted by Darrell Craig Harris, a globally published music journalist, professional musician, and Getty Images photographer.

649. This week we chat with Leah Payne about her book, God Gave Rock and Roll To You: A History of Contemporary Christian Music. We focus especially on the role of the family of Jimmy Swaggart, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Mickey Gilley in the history of Rock and Roll. Her book chronicles the confluence of evangelical, Pentecostal, and charismatic networks through the lens of Contemporary Christian Music, or CCM. The book indexes American evangelicalism's political and social aspirations as seen through its cultural intermediaries: the youth group leaders, non-profit groups, industry executives, and parents who contributed to what was morally permissible and economically profitable in CCM.  Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy.

On this now leaped and twisted a more indescribable horde of human abnormality than any but a Sime or an Angarola could paint. Void of clothing, this hybrid spawn were braying, bellowing, and writhing about a monstrous ring-shaped bonfire; in the centre of which, revealed by occasional rifts in the curtain of flame, stood a great granite monolith some eight feet in height; on top of which, incongruous in its diminutiveness, rested the noxious carven statuette."

This week in Louisiana. Halloween in New Orleans Website     If you thought that Halloween was just a night for the kids to go trick or treating with their parents in tow, you need to think again. Here in New Orleans, like everything else, it's different.     Halloween, Crescent City-style, is second only to Mardi Gras for wild and crazy, dressing-up-in-costume kind of fun and it isn't just for kids, either. Adults get to join the fun and craziness as well. In fact, there are a few events that are much more fun for the grown-ups than for the little ones! You can go on our haunted tours, visit our voodoo shops, our costume shops, our street parties, and we even have events for the kids! Postcards from Louisiana. Delfeyo Marsalis at Snug Harbor.

Welcome back to The L.A.M.E. Book Club Podcast! In this episode, we're diving into Crescent City: House of Earth and Blood chapters 1 through 10 — and honestly, it's already giving multiverse energy. We break down Bryce Quinlan's introduction, that devastating early twist, and all the sneaky crossover clues that hint Sarah J. Maas has been building one massive connected universe this whole time. From Aelin's fall through worlds to the red star and the Drop, we're pulling every thread we can find. Buckle up — because the multiverse starts right here.

While Mardi Gras and Thanksgiving are all fine and good, here at Louisiana Eats, our very favorite holiday has always been Halloween! Every October since the show's debut in 2010, we've gotten into the spooky spirit by bringing you stories of the silly, the supernatural, and the downright scary! This week and next, we continue our crystal anniversary celebration by bringing you two special Halloween episodes featuring moments old and new from the past 15 years. We begin with Chef Greg Picolo, whom we spoke with for our very first Halloween show back in 2010 and then again in 2019. It seems like no matter where Greg goes, paranormal activity keeps following him! Or is it just that nowhere in New Orleans is safe from hauntings? Greg's tale leads us to one Mid-City restaurant whose specters' hijinks have remained consistent through three different owners. Celeste Bergeron McCann and Chef Greg of Vessel's two former iterations⁠ – Christian's and Redemption, respectively – tell us about their paranormal experiences with the building's more malevolent spirits. Next, we delve further into the supernatural with Manbo Sallie Ann Glassman, who has been practicing Vodou in the Crescent City since 1977. She tells us about the role food plays in ceremonial Haitian Vodou and describes the Day of the Dead / Fèt Gede celebration she leads in the New Orleans Healing Center every November 1st. We also go into her botanica to see some of the unusual elements the Vodou priestess brings into play. Then, New Orleans writer Scott Gold recommends some spill-chilling dishes to serve at your Halloween party – a menu that, when first broadcast in 2014, gave rise to a true Emily Litella moment. Finally, we learn the art of obituary-writing from the emissary of eternal rest, John Pope. For nearly 50 years, John has marked the deaths of countless New Orleanians with his well-researched and poignant obituaries. In 2015, he compiled an anthology of 123 of his most memorable obits into his classic volume, "Getting Off at Elysian Fields," which was recently released in paperback.

The iron wheels of the New Orleans streetcars have carried generations through the heart of the Crescent City — and not all their passengers have been among the living. Along the clattering tracks of St. Charles and Canal, whispers of vanished conductors, spectral riders, and echoes of tragedy linger in the night air. This haunting journey through the city's veins is underscored by an original soundscape from West Coast artist Tommy Jordan, created exclusively for our Four Shadows series._____________________________Please be sure to like us on social media: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/shadowcarriersInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/shadowcarriersIf you like what you hear and want to buy your storytellers a drink, you can catch us at @shadowcarriers on Venmo.If you've enjoyed this episode and want to support our work, become a patron of the podcast!

From the height of its popularity in the 19th century to its modern revival, absinthe has a long and storied history. A favorite pastime of artists, writers, and bohemians, the spirit known as "the green fairy" was subject to a near global ban for nearly a century due to myths about its hallucinogenic effects. Even after those bans were lifted around the turn of the millennium, its wild and mysterious reputation remains. On this week's show, we delve into the mythical world of this once illicit elixir. We begin with Evan Rail, author of The Absinthe Forger. In this true crime novel, Evan follows the trail of a shadowy grifter who uses absinthe's mythical status to his own ends. Along the way, Evan gives readers a fascinating glimpse into the international underground absinthe scene that proliferated during the drink's prohibition. Then, Marielle Songy joins us to discuss the history of an iconic New Orleans cocktail: the Absinthe Frappé. Marielle delves into the early days of the drink and its first home, the Old Absinthe House in the Crescent City. Today, you can enjoy an Absinthe Frappé anywhere in the nation thanks in no small part to New Orleans environmental chemist Ted Breaux. Ted tells us about the two decades he spent analyzing pre-ban absinthe bottles to prove to the U.S. government that there was nothing dangerous about the fabled green liquor.

For the first time since they won their last game nearly 10 months ago, the New Orleans Saints are favored. Interestingly, it comes against the same team they gained that aforementioned victory – the New York Giants. Who will be better: Spencer Rattler or Jaxson Dart? What are the keys to the game? NOLA.com Saints editor and Times-Picayune / Advocate assistant sports editor Zach Ewing joins host Jim Derry for a preview of the Week 5 game on another “Fun Friday” edition of the Dattitude Podcast (Ep. 423) presented by Evangeline Securities. Also, Gabe Henderson and Uncle Big Nick are here for another edition of the “Pick Em” contest and their Best Bets for NFL Week 5 and CFB Week 6, and our meteorologist Damon Singleton has Dat Weather forecast for the Crescent City this weekend, what he sees in the tropics and when “real fall” might arrive.

CRYPTID: The Vampires of New OrleansJoin Josh as he explores the bloody history and modern mystery of New Orleans' most infamous legend — the vampire. For centuries, whispers of blood-drinking beings have haunted the city's streets, from the eerie tale of the Casket Girls and the attic of the Ursuline Convent to the chilling legends of the Carter Brothers and the enigmatic Jacques St. Germain.But the story doesn't stop in the past. From Anne Rice's Interview with the Vampire to TikTok encounters and Reddit confessions, vampire lore is alive and well in the Crescent City. Is New Orleans truly the vampire capital of America, or are these just centuries of superstition feeding into the city's haunted reputation?Follow us on Instagram @outtherecryptids and support the show on Patreon @outtherecryptids.

Waterfowl historian Yancey Forest-Knowles closes the series with a tour of California's fog belt and beyond—Humboldt Bay, the lagoons north and south of Crescent City, Laguna de Santa Rosa, and the Central Coast from Elkhorn Slough to Morro Bay. We trace how tides, eelgrass, railroads, and reclamation shaped these marshes—and what that means for today's hunters.Episode highlightsNorth Coast primer: why this stretch is a critical coastal link in the Pacific Flyway and how fog, rain, and working pasturelands still hold birds.Humboldt Bay traditions: public-forward Brant hunting, the roots of sculling, and the gear and etiquette that make it work.Access that remains: boat-in opportunities on flood years, small state parcels, and farm-pond possibilities when conditions line up.Club lore & culture: from early island and bay clubs to the stories of trains stopping at clubhouses—what's gone, what survived, and why.Central Coast check-in: how most wetlands were converted a century ago, and where hunters still find openings around Elkhorn Slough, Salinas, and Morro Bay.If you're curious where coastal waterfowling came from—and how to approach it with respect today—this finale ties the history, access, and conservation ethic together.

Voyage musical entre la Nouvelle Orléans, Paris, Marseille et Dakar. La #SessionLive reçoit Raphaël Imbert, Sarah Quintana et Pierre-François Blanchard pour le festival Jazz Nouvelle Orléans à la Goutte d'Or + Marseille. Entre la Goutte d'Or et la Nouvelle Orléans, la distance est bien moins longue qu'il n'y paraît. Eloignés géographiquement d'un peu moins de 8 000 kilomètres, les deux territoires sont pourtant proches par de bien des façons. Toutes deux terres de métissage dès leur origine, la Crescent City et l'ancienne commune de La Chapelle se sont nourries au fil des années des différentes vagues d'immigration qu'elles ont accueillies et dont les influences ont nourri la culture locale de différentes strates perceptibles aussi bien dans la musique, la gastronomie, la mode ou l'architecture. Comme les années précédentes, le festival 2025 s'est tenu pendant trois jours au 360 Paris Music Factory, cœur battant du quartier de la Goutte d'Or ; avec trois musiciens majeurs issus de la scène néo-orléanaise, Joe Lastie, Cha Wa et, à nouveau, James Andrews. Enfin, événement, le festival se transportera cette année à Marseille, autre terre de métissage, pour une réplique sous la houlette de Raphaël Imbert. Titres interprétés au grand studio - Basin Street Blues Live RFI - Baby don't (Sarah Quintana) Live RFI - Laisse le bon temps rouler Live RFI. Line Up : Raphaël Imbert (sax), Pierre-François Blanchard (piano) et Sarah Quintana (chant). Son : Mathias Taylor, Benoît Letirant.  ► Album Sarah Quintana Baby Don't (Independiente 2025) Festival au Campus Art Méditerranée Raphaël Imbert Sarah Quintana  Pierre-François Blanchard.    Puis nous recevons Sahad pour la sortie du nouvel album African West Station. Depuis plus de dix ans, Sahad Sarr est le fondateur et le leader vocal du groupe SAHAD, basé à Dakar. Ce projet indépendant et autoproduit innove et participe au développement de la musique alternative au Sénégal. Et ancien finaliste du Prix Découvertes RFI.  En 2021, entouré d'une équipe interculturelle, Sahad crée le label indépendant Stereo Africa 432 pour assurer la production à 360° du groupe et participer à la promotion, au soutien et au développement d'autres projets musicaux émergents sur la scène locale. Le label est également à l'origine du Stereo Africa Festival, qui vise à promouvoir les musiques actuelles d'Afrique de l'Ouest à travers une programmation éclectique et devient un lieu de rencontre entre professionnels africains et internationaux pour la promotion, la représentation, la diffusion et la structuration des musiques du continent. Sahad Sarr est aussi le fondateur et l'initiateur de l'écovillage Kamyaak : un projet de développement environnemental, culturel et social qui travaille avec des femmes et des jeunes dans la région de Fatick.  Après deux albums acclamés, SAHAD est de retour avec un projet puissant et profondément enraciné : African West Station, une véritable odyssée musicale qui traverse les frontières du temps et de l'espace, reliant l'âme vibrante de l'Afrique de l'Ouest au reste du monde. C'est une célébration de l'histoire, de la liberté et du pouvoir de l'union des peuples. Ce voyage n'est pas figé dans le passé, c'est une Afrique contemporaine tournée vers l'avenir qui s'exprime ici. Tout en rendant hommage aux années 70, aux révolutions culturelles et politiques, SAHAD s'inspire de l'esprit critique, de l'effervescence des luttes pour la fin de la colonisation et de la quête universelle de liberté. S'il se nourrit d'une certaine nostalgie des luttes et des révolutions passées, l'album nous projette avec espoir vers un avenir où les hommes et les femmes, au-delà de leurs différences, apprendront à s'écouter, à vivre ensemble et surtout à danser ensemble. African West Station est aussi un manifeste. C'est un voyage. Une célébration. Une rébellion. Une invitation à se libérer, à danser et à espérer, ensemble. Titres joués : Vultures, Yabon feat. Pat Kalla, Ne Mbife et Ba Nu Faloo. ► Album African West Station (Stereo Africa 432). Bandcamp  YouTube.

New Orleans has long been known for its Spanish, French, and African influences, so it can be easy to overlook the role the Chinese have played in our culture and cuisine since the mid-1800s. On this week's show, we explore the Chinese in the Crescent City – yesterday and today. First, we hear from the Historic New Orleans Collection's Winston Ho, who fills us in on the captivating history of the Chinese community here. He talks about the earliest restaurants that cropped up during Reconstruction, the Crescent City's short-lived Chinatown, and the substantial Chinese impact on the local seafood industry. Then, we fast forward to the present day to learn about Miss Shirley's Chinese Restaurant on Magazine Street – named best new restaurant in Louisiana by Southern Magazine in 2024. We visit with the restaurant's namesake, the vivacious Miss Shirley Lee, whose Royal China Restaurant in Metairie drew customers from all over the metro area for four decades. We chat with Miss Shirley about why her retirement only lasted a year – and meet her daughter, Carling, who is carrying her parents' traditions into the next generation.

Send us a textToday we're doing the impossible task of ranking every book in the entire Sarah J. MAAS averse, including Throne of Glass, A Court of Thorns and Roses, Crescent City, and the lesser known standalone book and DC collaboration, Catwoman. That's SEVENTEEN books that are all 4+ stars that we pick apart with a fine-toothed comb to come up with one winner, and unfortunately, one at the bottom of the barrel. What's fun about this episode is that it's full of SJM spoilers and possible connections, if you've read them all and you're just here for the tea. It's also interesting to see how much our rankings have possibly changed over the years, and after doing rereads, buddy reads, and multiple podcast conversations. Our choices might just surprise you!

Few places in America carry the weight of legend and ghostly lore like the French Quarter, where every cobblestone street seems to hold a story. In this episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, we take you inside one of the most infamous haunted locations in the world—the LaLaurie Mansion—and explore other ghostly sites that have made New Orleans a mecca for paranormal enthusiasts.   At 1140 Royal Street stands the LaLaurie Mansion, once the elegant home of Madame Delphine LaLaurie. Behind its beautiful façade lurked a chilling darkness. When a fire broke out in 1834, neighbors and authorities uncovered a horrific secret in the attic—enslaved people held in chains, tortured and starved. The revelations shocked the city, and Delphine fled, never to face justice. The mansion was ransacked, yet its ghostly legacy lives on. To this day, passersby report hearing phantom screams, footsteps echoing through empty halls, and ghostly apparitions watching from the windows. Many believe it to be the most haunted house in America.   But the LaLaurie Mansion is just the beginning. New Orleans is a city where the line between the living and the dead seems thin, and stories of hauntings can be found on nearly every block. Take St. Louis Cemetery No. 1, for example—the final resting place of the famed Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau. Visitors often leave offerings at her tomb, hoping for her favor, and many report seeing her spirit walking among the graves, still guarding her sacred ground.   Another hotspot of paranormal activity is the Hotel Monteleone, a luxurious landmark in the French Quarter. Known as one of the most haunted hotels in America, guests and staff have reported the spirits of children playing in the halls, mysterious shadows, and elevators that move on their own. Writers and celebrities have long stayed at the Monteleone, but some never truly checked out.   We also share stories of the Old Ursuline Convent, one of the oldest buildings in the city, rumored to be linked to vampire legends. Local lore tells of mysterious casket-shaped crates arriving from Europe in the 1700s, followed by reports of pale figures roaming the streets at night. Whether fact or fiction, these stories remain a chilling part of New Orleans' haunted history.   From ghostly nuns to pirate spirits, from Jackson Square to hidden courtyards, New Orleans offers no shortage of paranormal tales. It's a city where history, tragedy, and legend intertwine, leaving behind echoes that seem determined to linger.   Join us as we journey through the shadows of the Crescent City, uncovering the stories of its most haunted locations. The spirits of New Orleans are waiting, and tonight, we step into their world. Welcome to the 222 Paranormal Podcast, your gateway to the captivating world of the supernatural.
