It's A Good Life, Babe New Orleans Podcast

Geoff and Joel were two New Orleans natives who started this podcast in 2016 to share what they loved about the greatest city in the world. Over 100 episodes and six years, they built a devoted audience that came for the insider perspective on New Orleans culture and stayed for the genuine friendship between the two hosts. The show covered current events, cultural commentary, Saints analysis, and features on the traditions that make New Orleans unlike anywhere else. Episodes about Jazz Fest, second line parades, Storyville history, and local music scene deep cuts gave listeners a non-tourist view of the city that felt like sitting in on a conversation between two friends who genuinely knew their stuff. The tone was warm, opinionated, and unapologetically local. The podcast holds a 4.5-star rating and included both original episodes and rerun episodes honoring co-host Geoffrey Douville. The final episodes were released in early 2022. Though the show is no longer producing new content, the 100-episode archive remains a valuable time capsule of New Orleans life during a period that included the city's tricentennial celebration, multiple hurricane seasons, and the cultural upheaval of the pandemic years. For listeners looking for an authentic local voice that never tried to polish the city into something it was not, the archive rewards exploration.
