<p>In this podcast conversation we are joined by New Orleans native and historical cemetery/spooky tour guide Christian as we explore traditions of life and death in America's most haunted city. We explore how the blend of European, Native American, and West African cultures in New Orleans led to unique expressions of spirituality such as Voodoo and what popular culture gets wrong about it; scandals and respect in New Orleans cemeteries; and traditional ways of living in a city shaped by centuries of disaster.

Proceeds for the month of November will be donated to RAINN. Comment your question for the 10k Subscriber Q&A!
