Hmm. to Beyond Bourbon Street, an Insider's Guide to New Orleans.

Beyond Bourbon Street is the podcast where we explore the food, music, culture, places, and people that make New Orleans unique.

Whether you are planning a trip, living in New Orleans, or simply

wanting a taste of the Crescent City from wherever you are, you've come to the right place.

And now, your host, Mark Bologna.

Hey y'all, this is Mark.

Welcome to episode 137.

Today's episode is an update on my travel guide book and some of the lessons I've learned so far.

It might be a bit more reflective than most episodes, but I've got a few questions about it and I thought it would be a good moment to just kind of

stop and mark time on it. The last show was with local food writer Ian McNulty

who helped me answer listener questions and gave us an update on the food,

dining, and drink scene as maybe we start to come out of COVID here in New Orleans.

If you missed it, go back and give it a listen.

I think you'll enjoy it.

Before we jump in though to today's episode, let's talk about the people that make this show

possible. First up our sponsors the most frequent questions I get are about moving to

New Orleans and if you're ready to make the move you need a good realtor that's

where Liz Wood and her team comes in.

Let them help you find the right place whether you plan to buy or rent.

Look, New Orleans is a terrific city, but choosing the neighborhood that's the best fit for you

can be overwhelming.

Liz somehow makes the process fun and easy.
