Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you!Louisiana has given me some of the best food I’ve ever eaten, and with it ten pounds I don’t need.

This week we’ll talk about how one man’s paradise is just another man’s swamp; whether New Orleans is a cultural mecca or a financial and moral sinkhole; the music style that makes accordions worth listening to; and what to do when you grow way, way too many radishes in your game room.Check out Hal on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@halhammons9705Hal Hammons serves as preacher and shepherd for the Lakewoods Drive church of Christ in Georgetown, Texas.
