[Revisit] S5 E19: Boppin’ Off to the Big Easy

Well, y’all, this Designing Women episode was both a favorite of ours and listeners, so let’s Laissez les bons temps rouler! While we felt Julia’s rant in our bones, for the record, we’d still prefer to hang with Suzanne and Charlene in ‘The Big Easy’. 

Inspired by their night on the town, Nikki’s told us about 10 not-so-obvious things to do when you visit New Orleans. And, if you’re feeling frisky, you can go back and find this one’s accompanying “Extra Sugar” that we dedicated to the important history and cultural impact of drag.
