It's Carnival time in New Orleans! But the Big Easy isn't the only place people are celebrating. Just across Lake Pontchartrain sits St. Tammany Parish, a combination of bedroom communities and small towns that embrace nature and a laid-back existence. There, folks in towns such as Slidell, Mandeville, and Madisonville have developed their own unique forms of Mardi Gras merriment. On this week's show, we hear from three of those revelers. We kick things off with Charlotte Collins, who tells us the story of Mona Lisa and MoonPie, the oldest walking parade krewe in the City of Slidell. In 1984, she co-founded the krewe with a mission "to promote the arts, Olde Towne Slidell, and good humor." Their signature throws are MoonPies – the Chattanooga-made treats – which are tossed by the tens of thousands to eager parade-goers each year. Then, Tina Rhinehart talks about the Mande Milkshakers, the Northshore's first all-women marching group. Hailing from the West Tammany town of Mandeville, the adult dance team boasts more than 80 members who dress as mid-century housewives as they strut their stuff in parades on both sides of the lake. Finally, Bonnie Dennis gives us the lowdown on St. Tammany's floating procession, the Krewe of Tchefuncte. For half a century, their flotilla of fun has been making its way along the Tchefuncte River, celebrating the Carnival season, as well as the rich natural resources of St. Tammany Parish.

The objective is to ensure equal population distribution among the city's wards, with around 8,710 residents in each ward. The Marietta Board of Education follows the same ward map. A committee led by Councilman Joseph Goldstein, along with other members and a non-voting school board representative, presented two map options that closely resembled the previous one.

However, a new process was created that allows for the appeal of such removals. The parent, Kayla Sargent, argues that "Flamer" does not contain harmful or pornographic content and can serve educational purposes.

Dave Fitzgerald joins Tommy to talk about the investigation into President Mike Cooper's administration. 

This week, Don is back for another week to talk this Father's Day weekend, upcoming rodeos, Red Snapper quotas, a few ways that Robbie Campo recommends to beat the heat, some Black Bears spotted in St. Tammany Parish, the 3rd Annual Bullfrog Bash, how the weather has faired down in Grand Isle, and much more.

On this week's show, we're trekking across the Causeway once again to explore the culinary scene in St. Tammany Parish. We begin at Backwater Farmstead in the rural town of Bush, Louisiana. There, Ross McKnight and his family make foie gras, a luxury food they hope to make more accessible in our state.  After we tour the farm, we head over Olde Town Slidell to meet Jeremy and Alyssa Reilly of Restaurant Cote and the Maple Room. These high school sweethearts have carved out a very special place in the hearts and stomachs of the Slidell community for nearly 10 years.  We then speak with Nick Asprodites, the proprietor of two dockside restaurants and bars: the original Blue Crab on the south shore of Lake Pontchartrain and a second iteration at the Pointe Marina in Slidell.  Finally, we meet Chef Jeff Mattia. Jeff opened his first restaurant, Pyre Provisions, in Covington just months before the Covid-19 pandemic began. Though Pyre Provisions closed its doors this year, Jeff has found continued success in his newest restaurant concept, Pyre BBQ on the Mandeville Trace.

The Deep South Center for Environmental Justice recently released new maps that show petrochemical plants in Louisiana are disproportionately located near Black communities. This report builds on research from the 1990s, and argues that little has changed in the last 30 years.  The coastal desk's Halle Parker joins us for more on these maps and what they reveal about the health and safety of residents in “Cancer Alley” and Calcasieu Parish. Last week in New Orleans, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit heard arguments in Perkins v. Hart. The case centers on a Louisiana woman who accused deputies of using excessive force during her arrest, and the recent hearing was to determine whether she has the right to demand a jury trial.   For more on this pivotal case on law enforcement accountability, we are joined by Nora Ahmed, legal director for ACLU of Louisiana. She gives us some background on last week's hearing and tells us what may happen next.  And lastly, it's that time of year again. Formosan subterranean termites are swarming into south Louisiana homes, crawling through nooks and crannies and eating away at wood floors and roofs. New Orleans has been experiencing these swarms lately, and while it might be a disturbing sight, it's not necessarily one to panic about. Karen Henderson spoke with LSU AgCenter urban entomologist Karen Sun to learn more about how to manage termites and mitigate their damage.
