    EP 203 - Look out, the celebration police are coming!

    In this episode, we journey through memory lane, starting with a catchy old lyric about Applejack's unfortunate fate. They then reminisce about their diverse high school experiences, highlighting the intriguing mix of urban and country music. The conversation takes a delicious turn to jambalaya, where a friend's online recipe sparks a debate among culinary purists, leading to a hilarious Homer Simpson gif retreat. Amidst a lively discussion about praline pronunciation battles, they conclude that educating the stubborn is a hill not worth dying on. The chat takes a cultural dive, comparing the rigidness of New Orleans to the perceived openness of Japan and the US West Coast, only to reveal surprising intolerance in supposedly liberal areas. They also touch on the importance of preserving history through statues and plantation tours, offering a balanced view of the past. The dialogue wraps up with a reflection on New Orleans' unique, laissez-faire attitude towards life, contrasting it with the judgmental nature of other places, making for a light-hearted yet insightful session.
