My favorite NPR show On Point with Tom Ashbrook did two excellent hours in New Orleans last week. Guests included Tom Watson from Watson Memorial Teaching Ministries, Leah Chase, Jazzfest’s Don Marshall, Tulane’s Douglas Brinkley, author of “The Great Deluge: Hurricane Katrina, New Orleans, and the Mississippi Gulf Coast”, Times-Picayune columnist Lolis Eric Elie, and Martha Carr, assistant city editor for the Times-Picayune.
Some good stuff was discussed. Nothing Earth-shattering for the folks who live here but, so long as were in the news I’m satisfied.
You can find the shows on Itunes or listen in your browser.
